Quick Start Guide

Power Supply and Install the SD Card

Power Supply
A. Built-in Battery Powered and Solar Powered

• Before your first use, charge the built-in rechargeable battery with a USB cable (included) and 5V wall outlet charger (not included) about 8 hours.
• You can check whether it is fully charged by looking at the charging light on the bottom of the camera: red light means charging, green light means charging is complete.
• The charging efficiency of the solar panel s related to the intensity of sunlight, the duration of sunlight exposure, and the ambient temperature.

B. AA Battery Powered (Optional)
Under low temperature/fow sunlight situations, you can use 4 AA batteries as a backup power source. When the built-in lithium battery power is low, the camera will automatically switch to be powered by the AA batteries.

• Do ot mix old and new batteries.
• Do not mix battery types. Use ALL alkaline or ALL rechargeabe.
• When the camera is tumed on, the power is supplied by the built-in battery in defaut
• When the buit-in battery power is lower than 10%, the camera automatically switches to be powered by backup 4 AA batteries.
• The Solar panel charges built-in battery only. It does not charge the AA alkaline batteries or AA rechargeable batteries.
• When the AA battery power is lower than 30%, the camera wil stop or reduce night shooting, and willstop shooting when the power is exhausted.

Insert and format the SD Card

• When the card is inserted or removed, the mode switch must be in OFF position.
• Insert a Class 6 or higher class SD card up to 128GE.
• Insert or remove the SD card in ON mode, the camera might shut itself down.
• Format the new SD card before using the camera.

Product Operation and Menu Settings

Product Operation
OFF/ON Mode
Shift the “Mode Switch” to choose working status

OFF Mode: Turn off the camera
The camera is completely off. Only in OFF mode should you insert or remove the memory card or replace the batteries.
ON Mode: Adjust settings/Start operating

• When switched from OFF to ON, the screen display will go into the preview mode.
  You can manualy record video, take photos, playback the recorded files or change settings.

• In the preview mode, the PIR sensor is on. When they are triggered, light indicator will flash, but the camera will ot take photos or record videos automatically

• If there is no operation, it will automaticaly get into working mode. There will be have a delay time (30S/60S/3MIN) and the screen will have a 10s countdown, and then it will go black, the button operation will be disablec.

• When detecting animals or other moving objects, the camera will take photos or record videos when the PIR sensor s triggered, then return to standby afterward.

Menu Settings

Monitor Delay
Select the delay time when the camera enters the automatic shooting mode. In ON mode, the camera will automatically go into the automatic shooting mode after the set delay time if you do not make any operations.
Mode
Selects whether still photos or video clips are captured when the camera is triggered. Photo&Video mode combines both Photo and Video, so a stil photo and a video clp are both captured for each trigger
Photo Resolution
Selects resolution for stil photos. Higher resolution provides more pixels, but creates larger files that take up more of the SD card capacity (flls up faster).
Photo Series
Selects how many photos are taken per trigger in Photo mode.
Video Resolution
Selects video resolution. Higher resolution produces better quality videos, but creates larger files that take up more of the SD card capacity (fils up faster) Using high speed SD cards (SanDisk® SDHC cless 6 o higher) is recommended ifyou will higher video settings.
Video Length
Specifies the duration of a video recording when the camera is triggered automatically. To extend camera using life, we recommend to set a shorter video length.
Audio Recording
Selects if record audio while recoroling a video.
PIR Interval
Selects the length of time that the camera will ‘wait® until it responds to any additional triggers from the PIR after an animal s frst detected and remains within the sensor’s range.
Note:
PIR Interval takes great effect on battery working time. The shorter the interval, the high frequency to capture target, but more power consumption;
The longer the interval, the lower frequency to capture the target and less power consumption.
IR Distance
Selects the distance that the PIR sensor can detect.
PIR Sensitivity
Select sensitivity according to application conditions. Select High For interior areas and environments with it interference. Select “Medlum” for exterior areas and the environment with a normal amount of interference. Select “Low” for an environment with a high level of interference.
Target Recording Time
Select ON” o tum on this function, and set the start and end working time. The camera will not be triggered and will not take any photos or videos beyond this period. For instance set to 18:35 and the end time is 8:25, the camera will be operational from 6:35 pm of the current day until 8:25 am of the following day.
Note:
In this mode, the PIR function would stop working, and the camera would take photos in the set interval time. The photos will automatically form videos.
Time Lapse
Tums Time Lapse recordling mode on/off. Once activated this function forces the camera to take photos or videos even when it s not triggered by a nearby ve target, useful for constant monitoring of an area that might be far away from the camera. This is also useful for observing cold blooded animals (e.g. snakes) or outdoor plants etc. As soon as the on” setting has been confimed by pressing the OK key, you could set up the interval time (3 secondis~24 hours) and press the OK key, the feature will be activated.
Note:
In this mode, the PIR function would stop working, and the camera would take photos in the set interval time. The photos will automatically form videos.

Mounting and Positioning the Camera

1. Position the camera facing north or south
   The sun can cause false triggers with east or west camera placement. North is best.

2. Position the camera perpendicular to the ground Ensure your camera is mounted straight up and down o the pictures you capture are level to the horizon. This will also help prevent faise triggers and improve the camera’s abilty to capture wanted motion.

3. Point camera at a 45-degree angle
   Position your camera at a 45-degree angle to a trail, allowing more time for an animal to trigger the camera’s sensors for a photo. Never place a camera directly across from a trail because it wil leave less time for your camera to photograph a fast-moving deer or other object.

4. Place camera about 20 feet from your target This distance helps provide good lighting for a clear photo of the entire target.

5. Place camera 3 to 6 feet off the ground Mount your camera to a stand or a strong tree that won’t sway. This will help ensure you don’t receive any unwanted photos of small critters curious about your camera.

6. Clear vegetation from the front of the camera Remove grass, small limbs and twigs away from the camera’s view to avoid getting unwanted pictures of moving vegetation.

Adjust the position of the solar panel

• Make sure the solar panel forms an angle with the horizontal plane to prevent the accumulation of rain or snow. The solar panel can be titted upwards by & degrees and downwards by 15 degrees.
• To ensure sufficient sunlight reaches the solar panel on top of the camera, the camera should be fixed in a position where the solar panel is fully exposed to suniight.
• Regularly clean the solar panel to remove dust, dirt, bird droppings, and other debris. This will maintain a smooth and transparent surface, increasing light absorption effciency.

Sensing and Distance Test

To test whether the trail camera can effectively monitor the area you choose, this test is recommended to check the sensing angle and monitoring distance of the trail camera. To perform the test:

• Switch the trail camera to the ON mode.
• Make parallel movements in front of the camera at several positions within the area where you expect the game or subjects to be. Try different distances and angles from the camera.
• If the motion indicator LED light blinks, it indicates that the position can be sensed. Ifit does not blink, that position is outside of the sensing area.
• The resuts of your testing will help you find the best placement when mounting and aiming the trail camera. The height away from the ground for placing the device should vary with the animal size appropriately. In general, 3 to 6 feet is preferred. The optimal distance away from the subject is about 20 feet.
• If you want to capture small animals, we recommend placing the camera directly on the ground and making it close to the subject.
• You can avoid potential false triggers dlue to temperature and motion disturbances in front of the camera by ot aiming it at a heat source or nearby tree branches or brush (especially on windy days).

Replay Mode

All photos and videos taken by the iZEEKER trail camera can be viewed directly on the built-in screen, also can be protected, unprotected and deleted directly on the camera, and can be displayed as a slide show.
Reviewing the Files Directly on the Camera
Put the power switch to ON position, press [Mode] key twice to enter into the Replay mode.

• Press [UP] : page forward
• Press [DOWN] : page forward
• When check videos in the Replay mode, [OK] key is Play/Pause key.
• When you want to delete the unwanted file in the Replay mode, press [MENU] key and [OK] key to delete the current file or delete all files.
• Press [Mode] key again to quit the Replay mode.

Connecting the Camera to a Computer
When using a PC (or Mack) to view photos (or video clips*), First, put the power switch to the [ON] position. Then connect to the PC via the micro USB cable. Once successfully connected, the camera screen will display the characters “MSDC,” while the computer will show a “Removable Disk” notification. You can then operate the camera on the computer just like a regular USB flash drive, performing various operations such as file transfers and data management. You could view images/videos saved on the SD card directly on the PC.
Note: Video files may require additional software for viewing on Mac.
