Tether Installation
- To secure connection between the camera and magnetic mounting bracket, locate the tether that came supplied with the camera.
- Locate the hole on the side of the camera. Insert one end of the tether through the hole. Push the longer end through the small loop and pull taught to secure.
- Release the buckle before you locate the hole on the side of the magnetic mounting bracket. Insert one end of the tether through the hole. Push the longer end through the small loop and pull taught to secure. Reconnect the buckle to secure installation.
- To disconnect, simply squeeze the buckle and separate from tether.
Mounting
- To secure the magnetic mounting bracket to an object in the field, locate the strap that came supplied with the camera.
- Remove the clip from one end of the strap and slide that end through the two slots on the back of the magnetic mounting bracket.
- Once the magnetic mounting bracket is attached, place the clip back on the strap.
- Wrap the strap around the object at the appropriate height and connect both ends of the clip.
- Pull any excess material on the strap so the magnetic mounting bracket attaches to the object tightly
TIPS:
- Place the camera 25-30 feet from your target area for optimal image quality.
- Try to avoid mounting the camera directly facing the rising or setting sun so sunlight isn’t directly hitting the lenses.
- If mounting to a dusty environment (such as a feeder), regularly clean the camera lens covers, incandescent flash cover and PIR sensor cover.
- Periodically check the camera mounting to ensure it doesn’t become loose.
- To keep any water from damaging the unit, the camera door must remain closed with the latch secured tightly while the camera is in use.
- Regularly remove the battery compartment cover to inspect the batteries for any corrosive build-up, as this may harm the camera.
NOTE:
The preferred mounting method is to attach the camera to the magnetic mounting
bracket. The built-in ball head allows you to adjust and set its view
conveniently and make it rotate by 360 degrees.
- Simply connect the camera to the magnetic mounting bracket. The strong magnet will secure installation.
- Once the camera is attached, rotate and pivot the camera to a desired point of view.
NOTE:
The alternate mounting method is without the magnetic mounting bracket.
- To disconnect the magnetic attachment from the camera, unscrew the attachment on the back of the camera counter clockwise.
- To secure the camera to an object in the field, locate the strap that came supplied with the camera.
- Remove the clip from one end of the strap and slide that end through the two slots on the back of the camera.
- Once the camera is attached, place the clip back on the strap.
- Wrap the strap around the object at the appropriate height and connect both ends of the clip.
- Pull any excess material on the strap so the camera attaches to the object tightly.
