Battery life is shorter than expected
Battery life will vary with operating temperature and the number
1.
of images taken over time. Typically, the Trail Cam will be able to
capture several thousand images before the batteries die.
Check to make sure you have used new alkaline or lithium
2.
batteries.
Simmons recommends using Energizer® Lithium
batteries in your Trail Cam to obtain maximum battery life.
Make sure that the power switch was moved to the “On” position
3.
and that the camera was not left in “Setup Menu” mode while in
the field.
Make sure that you are using a good quality name brand SD
4.
card in your camera.
Simmons recommends SanDisk® brand SD
Cards
. Our experience indicates that poor quality SD cards can
sometimes reduce your Trail Cam battery life.
Camera stops taking images or won’t take images
Please make sure that the SD card is not full. If the card is full, the
1.
camera will stop taking images.
Check the batteries to make sure that they are new alkaline or
2.
lithium batteries.
See note above about short battery life.
Make sure that the camera power switch is in the “On” position
3.
and not in the “Off” position and the camera was not left in
“Setup” mode.
Make sure that you are using a good quality SD card in your
4.
camera.
Simmons recommends SanDisk® SD Cards
.
If the SD card has its write protect switch in the lock position, the
5.
camera will not take images.
If you have used an SD card in another device before inserting it in
6.
your Trail Cam, you might want to try formatting the card using
the “Format” option in Setup mode (make sure you have backed
up any important files first, as formatting will erase all previous
files). In some cases, other devices may change the formatting of
the SD card so that it will not work properly with the Trail Cam.
