TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE I JUST IN CASE

SD CARD

• SD cards will sometimes cause errors when they are: old, corrupted, full of images, previously used by other cameras, too large, or specialized high-speed cards.
• Make sure that you are using a new 4GB – 32GB class 10 or 10U1 SDHC card. DO NOT use SDXC, Micro/Mini, Ultra Capacity, or High-Speed cards.
• If the SD card is compatible, formatting the SD card will usually correct and prevent any SD card errors. See Formatting Sidebar

FORMATTING SO CARD

• Switch camera on. Once activation lights are illuminated, press and hold the Format SD button until the SD Card LED blinks yellow.
• Once formatted, the SD Card LED will turn solid green indicating success.
• If the SD Card LED turns solid red, repeat the process or try a different card.

IF FORMATTING OR REPLACING THE SD CARD DOES NOT HELP, VISIT THE SUPPORT SECTION OF THE MOULTRIE MOBILE APP OR MOUL TRIEMOBILE.COM

REDUCING FALSE TRIGGERS

• Camera is triggered by the movement of heat within the detection zone.
• Optimize trigger sensitivity for the camera’s specific location with High, Medium, and Low sensitivity settings. Adjust camera settings via app or website.
• Avoid pointing the camera into the sun (east/ west) – the warm sunlight can create false triggers.
• Avoid placing the camera in an open field during the summer. Heat-related triggers in open fields disappear when the temperature drops.
• Don’t place camera on smaller trees that can easily blow in the wind.
• Place the camera 3+ feet off the ground and clear away nearby branches, brush, and tall grass – vegetation warmed by the sun and blown by the wind can sometimes produce a false trigger.

SERVER CONNECTION

• If camera does not connect to Moultrie Mobile, try:
  • Formatting or replacing SD card See Formatting Sidebar
  • Moving camera to area with better cellular coverage
  • Verifying battery level
  • Checking antenna for damage or proper attachment

NO WEAK CELL SIGNAL

• Why does my cell phone have signal, but my camera doesn’t?
  • Cellular providers often have “roaming agreements” with towers they do not own and usually do not allow devices like cellular trail cameras to benefit from these agreements.
  • Your phone may be utilizing 3G signal (even if it is a 4G phone). The camera is not able to operate on 3G.
• If your cellular signal is weak
  (Signal LED is yellow or red), please relocate the camera to a place with stronger signal.
