Getting to Know the BirdCam
Memory Capacity & Storage
Your BirdCam has two types of memory:
1. Internal memory (32 MB)
When the BirdCam is used without an SD memory card, images
are automatically stored in the BirdCam’s internal memory. The
images stored in internal memory are only accessible when the
BirdCam is connected to a computer or TV.
2. Optional SD Memory Card (sizes up to 4 GB)
When the BirdCam is used with an optional SD memory card,
images are automatically stored on the SD memory card. The
images stored on the SD card are accessible when the BirdCam
is connected to a computer or TV, or by using an optional SD
card reader.
IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT SD MEMORY CARDS:
a. Always turn the unit off when inserting or removing an SD card
to avoid damage and ensure that the BirdCam properly updates
the memory information.
b. When an SD card is inserted in the BirdCam, any photos stored
in the BirdCam’s internal memory become inaccessible, but are
not lost. When the SD card is removed, images in the internal
memory become accessible again.
c. Number of pictures or videos stored is determined by the card
capacity with a maximum of 9,999 files.
d. For error messages related to SD card problems, see trouble-
shooting section.
