Start-up/Activation

Once you have completed the setup, you can put the camera into an active state where it will take Photos/Videos based on the motion detection, according to the settings you have specified. Activate the camera by moving the switch from “TEST” to “ON”, the green LED on the front panel flashes once and the device is active. If motion is detected by a “PIR” sensor, the camera will record. An SD card must be installed in the camera, otherwise the camera will not work see chapter 1.4

Main Functions

• 20Mpix photos, 4K video.
• 60° FOV camera, 60° detection angle – PIR sensor.
• 0.8s shutter speed, for recording at the right moment
• 4 working modes: Camera, Video, Camera&Video, Time-lapse
• 2x infrared LEDs, with a range of up to 15 metres
• Waterproof camera body.
• Low power consumption (up to 3-4 months on 4X AA batteries.)*
• Date, Time, Temperature and moon phase directly on the photo or video.

Power supply
StrongVision A requires 4X AA 1.5V alkaline batteries for operation.

• The batteries must be inserted exactly as indicated in the battery compartment, if you turn the battery over, the device will not work and you may damage it.
• Always use the same type and manufacturer of batteries, and always keep the batteries at the same charge. If you use different types of batteries, the device may be damaged. Such damage is not covered by the statutory warranty.
• If you know that you will not be using the device for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the device.
• Leaving them in the device may cause damage to the device that is not covered by the warranty.
• Due to the large number of modes and settings, the battery life of an active device cannot be specified exactly. Night mode or video recording have high power consumption requirements and significantly reduce battery life. We can only recommend the use of 1 .5V Alkaline or 1.5V Lithium rechargeable batteries for longer battery life.

Warning : Insert batteries into the device when it is switched off

Memory card
The camera supports memory cards up to 32GB.
Before inserting or removing a memory card, the device must be switched off by moving the switch to the “OFF” position If you handle the card while it is switched on, the data on the card may be corrupted.

• The camera does not have any built-in memory, you must insert a memory card into the device to use it. For proper operation, it is a good idea to format the memory card directly in the camera (MENU-Format SD Card) or on your computer to FAT32 format.
• A maximum of 32GB memory card can be used, 64GB cards and larger will not be recognised by the device.
• For the card to function properly, avoid contact with moisture. Ensure that the device is not exposed to vibration or that the cards are exposed to direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
• The camera supports cyclic overwriting, in which case the camera will start overwriting the oldest files when the SD card memory is full.
• Insert the SD card carefully into the slot, pushing it gently until the card slot mechanism clicks.
• To remove the SD card, press the edge of the card until it slides out of the camera body. After that, you can safely remove it – the camera must always be in the OFF position.

Troubleshooting

The camera does not record photos/videos when moving

1. Check the PIR sensor to see if it is damaged or blocked, for example by a leaf.
2. Test the camera in places where there are no hot spots. The PIR sensor detects motion based on temperature difference, if the camera environment is overheated, the sensor is not activated.
3. In some cases, the water level may cause the PIR sensor to activate unintentionally, in which case turn the camera away from the water level.
4. Set the camera so that it is not pointing directly at the ground.
5. Position the camera so that it does not move and large moving objects, such as a large tree, are not in the frame.
6. At night, the device can detect movement outside the range of the IR night light, so no moving object will be detected in the photos.
7. Sunset or sunrise may cause the recording to start unintentionally – change the camera position.
8. If the animal/person in front of the camera is moving quickly, the camera may not record them – move the camera further away from the objects (e.g. further away from the path where the animals are moving)

The camera does not produce any images

1. Make sure there is enough free space on the inserted SD card. If the old file overwrite function is disabled, the device no longer records after the SD card is full.
2. Check that the Alkaline AA batteries used have enough power to operate the photo trap.
3. Make sure the switch is in the ON position and not OFF.
4. Before using the card for the first time, format the card on your computer to FAT32 format

Night light does not have sufficient range

1. Use AA alkaline batteries with sufficient capacity – the range will be lower with depleted batteries.
2. For good quality night shots, place the camera in a dark environment with no other light sources.
3. Try to use the camera in locations where it will be surrounded by other objects that can reflect IR light. If you place the camera in an open area, the resulting photo will not be sufficiently illuminated. It’s the same as shining a flashlight on the night sky, you won’t see anything either, even if the flashlight is very powerful.

I can’t get the camera to turn on

1. Check that the batteries are charged and all of the same type and manufacturer
2. Check the placement of the batteries in the dock to match the polarity of the batteries, according to the pictograms in the battery compartment.

The camera does not record photos or videos

1. Make sure the SD card is 32GB or less and is Class 10
2. Test whether the SD card is functional in another device
3. Format the SD card on your computer to the FAT32 file system.

The camera does not record at night but only during the day
Check the battery level, if the battery capacity is less than 30%, the camera is not able to trigger the night light. To restore the function, replace the batteries with new fully charged ones.

Notice

1. The moment you switch the camera from TEST mode to ON, the countdown starts from 15s to 1s, this is a normal state, during this time, you can safely close the camera and place it in the right place.
2. Never submerge the camera under water or place it under running water.
3. Do not expose the device to high temperatures or place it near an open flame.
