Power

To supply power for the camera, 4, 8, or 12 size AA batteries are needed.
Notice

• Do not mix different types of batteries

• High-density and high-performance AA size alkaline or 1.5v Lithium batteries (Recommended)
• Rechargeable 6V external SLA battery (Sealed Lead Acid) or solar panel
• Rechargeable NiMH AA size batteries (at least 2500mAh)

 Installing your SD memory card

Notice

• Standard size SD and SDHC (High Capacity) cards up to a maximum 64GB capacity are supported (Micro-SD memory cards with adapters are NOT recommended).
• Using high-speed SD cards (SanDisk3 Ultra3 or Extreme3 series or similar) is recommended if you will use the 1280×720 or 1920×1080 video settings.

The GLORY ULV4 camera has no internal memory storage space to store pictures/video clips. You need to insert an SD memory card to let the camera work correctly.
Make sure the power switch is OFF before you insert the SD card into the camera. The camera will not turn on without an SD card inside.
Make sure the write-protect switch on the side of the card is “off” (NOT in the “Lock” position).

   Switch camera to SETUP. Press the MENU button, then choose the SYS tab. Navigate down by pressing the ▼ button until the FORMAT SD Card option is highlighted and press OK then choose Yes to format.

Camera mode settings

1. CAM TAB
   Press the menu button, then the right arrow to the CAM tab option and you will see the screens shown above. Press ▲▼ the button to highlight the option, then press OK to select. There is always a ‘*’ shown beside the currently selected option.
   Photo or Video Mode
   Select if you want the camera to record Photos or Videos. To customize these Photo or Video settings, select ‘Custom Settings’.
   
   

2. PIR TAB
   Trigger Mode: Choose if you want PIR triggered footage, Timelapse triggered footage, or Both.
   PIR Sensitivity: Choose between Low / Auto or High PIR sensitivity
   PIR Interval: This is the time delay of the PIR sensor to set after each trigger & transmission (for security applications it’s best to have a short time setting). This setting prevents the SD card from filling up with too many redundant images.
   Time-lapse: When you choose time-lapse, the camera will automatically take photos or videos at user-set interval times – even when it is not triggered by the PIR sensor. It’s useful for the constant monitoring of an area – or for an area that is beyond the range of the PIR sensor.
   Work Time1-4: You can set the camera to automatically work at preset times and even on preset days. Outside of these pre-set times, the camera will not work. Work hour: 00:00-00:00 means 24 hours. If the settings is cross the day, for example, Start 20:00 Stop: 10:00 means 00:00-10:00 am and 20:00-24:00 of the chosen day.
   The camera can just work at a preset time and preset days. In the rest of the time, the camera is under standby mode.
   There are four work times that can be set.

Overwrite: The Over Write function will save new photos over the old photos on your SD card if it becomes full. Each time a new photo is taken the oldest photo on the card will be overwritten, however, the camera may not continue to send pictures once the SD card is full.

Mounting Tips when in the field
– For best results, mount the camera approximately 1.5m off the ground facing straight forward as level as possible.
– To enhance the flash, we recommend positioning the camera in an area with a backdrop to reflect the maximum amount of light. For instance, place the camera 7m-10m/from a field edge facing the woods. For the inside of timber, positioning the camera facing a thicket approximately 7m-10m away.
– Try to set the camera up so it’s not facing directly into the sun either in the morning or the evening when game movement is at its peak.

Mount the camera approximately 1.4m off the ground facing straight forward as level as possible. For instance, place the camera 7m-10m from a field edge facing the woods. If positioning the camera in a bushy area, position it facing a thicket approximately 7m-10m away.
Don’t face directly towards the light sources as this may result in ‘white- out’ / over-exposed footage.

In some instances, using the forest for reflection can add more light to your target area.

Recording short video clips is a good way of minimizing the effect of night- time ‘motion-blur’ images if the subject is moving briskly past the camera. It provides a constant right source.
