• The PIR indicator light below the lens will blink when you have

entered the coverage area.

• Adjust the camera position as needed and repeat the test until the

desired coverage area is achieved.

• Press the Setup button again when you are finished using the test

mode-the camera will be “sleeping” and waiting for the PIR sensor to

trigger the first photo or video capture.

• Maximum PIR sensor range is approx. 45 ft.

5. Secure the Camera

A standard padlock may be used in the camera’s lock hole to secure it and

prevent theft.

6. (Optional) Using an External Power Source

Optionally, you can connect an external 6V DC power source (not

provided) to the “DC In” jack at the bottom of the X-8 Trail Cam, under

the rubber pad around the tripod socket (pg. 6). Please be careful to use

a compatible power source, making sure that the voltage, minimum

current rating, and connector polarity are all correct. If both an external

power source is connected and batteries are installed, the X-8 trail cam

will be powered by the external power source.

External Power Source Specs: 6 volts DC, 1000mA (1A) minimum

current, positive tip connector polarity (+ tip/- sleeve).

VIEWING THE PHOTOS and VIDEOS

Reviewing the photos and/or videos your X-8 camera has captured can

be done by one of three methods:

Using an SD Card Reader

1. Push the SD card in slightly to release it then pull it out gently.

2. Put the SD card into any of the widely available SD card readers

(either a dedicated SD card reader or “multi-card reader” that

features slots for several different memory cards, including SD

cards).

3. Follow the card reader supplier’s directions to view or download the

photo and/or video files on the SD card.
