Livestock Trail Camera
The trail camera requires a Class 6 or higher high-speed micro SD card (Class 10 is recommended for best performance).
• Use micro SD cards only; standard-sized SD cards will not fit.
• The maximum capacity supported is 32GB. Cards larger than 32GB are not compatible.
• Use micro SD cards only; standard-sized SD cards will not fit.
• The maximum capacity supported is 32GB. Cards larger than 32GB are not compatible.
Possible reasons include:
1. Insufficient power:
• If using a solar panel, ensure you install at least 4 alkaline 1.5V batteries in the camera. The solar panel alone may not provide enough power for infrared (IR) lights at night.
• If using only batteries, ensure they are alkaline 1.5V (not rechargeable or carbon-zinc batteries). Low-voltage batteries may cause the IR lights to malfunction.
2. Incorrect SD card: Ensure you are using a high-speed micro SD card (Class 6 or higher) formatted in the camera.
3. Camera mode: The camera must be in the ON position to record. It will not work in "TEST" mode at night.
4. Sensitivity settings: Increase the sensitivity setting to High under the motion detection menu.
