Using the “
WalkTest
”
Mode
Learning to use the WalkTest mode is critical to being as successful as possible
with your RECONYX
®
camera. The WalkTest mode allows you to precisely
determine your camera’s a
ctive motion detection zone. This ensures that your
camera is aimed exactly where you want to capture animal activity.
1)
Secure the camera to a tree or other object aiming the camera toward where
you want it to capture pictures.
2)
Put camera in “
WalkTest
” mode,
and close the camera.
3)
Walk in front of the camera where
you expect to capture pictures.
Every time the red WalkTest light
blinks it indicates that a motion
event has taken place. If the
WalkTest light does not blink
where you expect it to, adjust the
aim or location of the camera.
4)
If possible, set up the camera so
that no large trees or objects are
in the main field of view of the
camera, as they can adversely
affect motion detection as well as
night time flash range.
NOTE:
All RECONYX
®
cameras will self-arm from
the “
WalkTest
”
mode after a
two minute period during which it does not detect any motion events.
TIP:
Be sure to use the “
WalkTest
” mode to be sure the camera is aimed
correctly.
