Using the adjustable web belt:
Fig. 5
illustrates using the web belt on the
Core Trail Camera
. Push one
end of the belt through the two brackets on the back of the
Core Trail Camera
. Thread the end of the
strap through the buckle. Fasten the belt securely around the tree trunk by pulling the end of the strap
firmly so there is no slack left. Using the tripod socket: The camera is equipped with a socket at the
bottom end to enable mounting on a tripod or other mounting accessories with a standard1/4-20
thread.

Sensing Angle and Distance Test
To test whether the
Core Trail Camera
can effectively monitor the area you choose, this test is
recommended to check the sensing angle and monitoring distance of the
Core Trail Camera
. To perform
the test:
• Switch the
Core Trail Camera
to the
SETUP
mode.
• Make movements in front of the camera at several positions within the area where you expect the
game or subjects to be. Try different distances and angles from the camera.
• If the motion indicator LED light blinks, it indicates that position can be sensed If it does not blink, that
position is outside of the sensing area. The results of your testing will help you find the best placement
when mounting and aiming the
Core Trail Camera.
The height away from the ground for placing the
device should vary with the animal size appropriately. In general, 3 to 6 feet is preferred.
You can avoid potential false triggers due to temperature and motion disturbances in front of the
camera by not aiming it at a heat source or nearby tree branches or brush (especially on windy days).
Switching ON the Camera
Once you switch to the
ON
mode, the motion indicator LED (red) will blink for about 10 seconds. This
gives you time to close and lock the front cover of the
Core Trail Camera
and then walk away. During
this time, the motion indicator LED will blink red continuously. After it stops blinking, the PIR is active,
and any motion that is detected by it will trigger the capture of photos or videos as programmed in the
SETUP
Menu. Be sure you have read the descriptions of the Capture Number, Interval and Sensor Level
parameters. Please note, the PIR is strongly sensitive to ambient temperature. The greater the
temperature difference between the environment and your subject, the farther the possible sensing
distance. The average sensing distance is about 60 ft.
