Charging with solar
Place the unit in direct sunlight with no shade. The red charge indicator LEDs do not display when charging by solar. Only the green LED will flash. Press the TEST button to see charge indicator LEDs. Consult charge indicator key below.

CHARGE INDICATOR LED KEY

How to check the power status
Pressing the TEST button will display the charge level. Full charge will be indicated with all of the LEDs showing Red.

WARNING: Always install a fully-charged solar panel.

INSTALLATION

Find a location where the panel will receive as much direct sunlight as possible and use the supplied adjustable mounting arm to mount the panel. Typically, the panel should be facing South. Be sure to use the 12 V output port on the back of the panel and the supplied 1.5 mm output cable.

  • Using anything other than the 12 V port and output cable could damage your device and void the warranty.

Insert the yellow-tipped end into the power pack and the black end into your camera. When in normal use the red LEDs do not light up unless you push the TEST button.Do not leave AA batteries in your camera while using the external solar panel.

Note: The other output ports and cables included with the solar panel allow it to be used with other cameras, phones, and devices.

TIPS

  • The panel requires 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight per day for best performance.
  • The solar panel will get the maximum amount of natural light if it faces South and angled at 45 degrees.
  • Keep your solar panel clean of pollen, dirt, and debris for best performance.
  • Route the cables along the mounting bracket and as close to the camera as possible to avoid chewing or tearing from animals. Excess cable length should be tucked behind the panel or camera.
  • Ensure both ends of the cables are installed completely and securely. Turn the camera ON, trigger a photo, and check your app to ensure proper network connection before leaving the area.

CAUTION

  • Do not drop, disassemble, or puncture the power pack.
  • Do not place in fire, extremely high temperature, or water.
  • If you notice something not right when in use or when charging, like melting, a bulge in the housing or the unit getting extremely hot stop using it immediately.

WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions may result in fire, electric shock, damage, or other injury. This power pack is not a toy. Keep away from children and operate outside.
