PIR (Passive Infrared Sensor): Senses motion like a typical security motion
detector. Requires infrared energy (heat) in addition to motion to trigger
the sensor to help limit detection to live animals (rather than leaves, etc).
Trigger Delay: Time elapsed between photos while events are sensed
and recorded. You should set this based on wildlife activity in the area.
Moon Phase: The activity level of some animals seems to be related to
the phases of the moon. Your trail cam has a feature which imprints a
moon phase stamp on each photo for reference.
IR Flash: Also called IR LED Array. This is a “night vision” feature, which
emits a burst of infrared light, invisible to the eye. Especially useful for
night photos when a visible flash may be undesirable. Model 119318C
has special blue LEDs for even greater reduced visibility.
Battery life: Time that camera will function in the field. Dependent on
ambient temperature, number of images taken and number of times the
IR flash fires.
When the battery voltage drops below 4.5v, the IR flash stops
firing. When battery voltage is below 3.5v, the camera stops working.
Image Capture Mode: Set by a slide switch, this determines what type
of image is captured when the camera is triggered (subject to trigger
delay time):
Sin
: A single image is captured for each PIR trigger
Mul
: Three image sequence captured for each PIR trigger
Mov
: A video clip is captured with each PIR trigger
Mass Storage: A standard that allows your computer to access the
contents of the SD card. The USB connected camera is automatically
recognized as an “external drive”, without the need to install special
drivers. (
Win 98 and older operating systems are not supported. Mac OS9
and OSX are also compatible-the camera will appear on your desktop as an
external storage device or “disk”
).
