3. In some cases, setting the camera near water will make the camera take
images with no subject in them. Try aiming the camera over ground.
4. Try to avoid setting the camera up on small trees that are prone to
being moved by strong winds.
5. Remove any tree branches that are right in front of the camera lens.
PIR Sensor LED Flashes/Doesn't Flash
1. When the camera is in the "Setup" mode, a special LED on the front of
the camera will flash when it senses motion. This is for setup purposes
only and will help the user aim the camera.
2. During use, the LED will not flash when the camera takes an image.
This is to help keep the camera hidden from humans or animals.
LCD Screen Issues
1. LCD screen powers on but no text is present.
a. After moving the switch from "Off" to "Setup" or "On", make sure
that the switch is correctly in position to ensure the proper mode (avoid
positions "between" two modes).
b. Do not move the switch directly from "On" to "Setup"-always move
the switch all the way up to "Off" first, then back down to "Setup".
2. LCD screen shows a faint black line after turning from "Setup" to
"On".
a. The LCD will turn off when you slide the switch to the "On"
position. In some cases, this black line will appear and then
fade in about 1 second. This is normal and the camera will function
properly.
3. Screen comes on but then powers off
a. Make sure that you have installed the SD card correctly.
Camera won't retain settings
Make sure that you have been saving the changes to any parameter settings
that you made while in Setup mode, by pressing "OK" after changing the
setting. If you don't save your new setting after changing it, the camera will
continue to use the original default setting for that parameter.
Moisture or Ants Inside Camera
To ensure humidity or rain is kept out of the camera, secure the DC In plug
firmly in place. Ants can be attracted by low level electronic vibrations, and
enter through any gaps between the exterior and interior of the camera.
Make sure the camera is completely closed and latched before leaving
the area.
