USING THE CAMERA
Once
all
program
settings
have
been
setup
properly,
your
Stealth
Cam
is
ready
for
field
use.
Getting started
Listed
below
are
some
helpful
pointers
on
how
to
use
your
camera
to
get
the
best
results.
•
Mount the camera about 4-‐5 feet high with the camera pointed at a
slight downward angle.
•
Mount the camera facing north or south NOT east or west due to the
rising
and
setting
of
the
sun
could
produce
false
triggers
and
overexposed
images.
•
If you’re covering a trail, face the camera down or up the trail. Most
commercial
cameras
take
1-‐3
seconds
to
sense
motion/heat
and
take
a
picture.
•
Clear out any brush or weeds in front of camera. This will cause false
pictures caused wind or high temperature days.
•
Double check battery before turning on the camera for use.
•
Make sure to insert the memory card after setting up the game camera.
•
Make sure to turn the camera ON (or take out of Test Mode) before you
leave.
•
Verify time and date is correct.
