Unlock the Masterlock cable with your keys so that you can open the camera
Open camera by unhooking the latch on the front of the camera body and removing the cover
Press "OK" to disarm (the camera will then show you the status)
The status on the LCD display will show the number of pictures, remaining battery power and %
full the card is. Record the number of pictures on your data sheet under "No of Images Shown
on Camera Display" (You can also check this anytime by using the arrow buttons to scroll to
"Check Status")
Turn the camera off and insert 6 fresh C batteries if needed* using the proper orientation –
there are icons depicting this where you insert the batteries. *For backcountry sites or those
that are far away, we suggest replacement of batteries at each check, even if they are still
showing life. For closer sites, such as those along I-90, use your judgment based on the battery
life left.
MAKE SURE THE CAMERA IS IN THE OFF POSITION, AND THEN REMOVE THE COMPACT FLASH
CARD IF IT HAS ALREADY BEEN INSTALLED. Place the card in a case or Ziploc and clearly label to
return with its images and your data sheet to the CNW office (The card slot is located below the
arrow buttons).
Install the compact flash card you brought that is clean of images – MAKE SURE THE CAMERA IS
STILL OFF - THE CF CARD SHOULD ONLY BE REMOVED OR INSERTED WHEN THE CAMERA IS OFF.
Orient the CF card face up so that the side with the small lip is facing away from you and slide it
in firmly.
Turn camera on and check the time and date which will come up on the LCD display. If needed,
reset or set the date and time. To do this, select "Change Setup" from the Main Menu by hitting
