Recommended mounting height for this camera is about chest level and angled slightly
downward (using branches/wood blocks, etc…). Alternatively, it can be mounted a little higher
and angled down a little more. The camera has a 40 degree field of view.
To ensure proper aim, use the Walktest mode (from the main menu) and use the red light to
determine when the camera is detecting you in the field of view – the red light will flash when it
detects you. The camera will self-arm from Walktest mode after a 2 minute delay.
If your camera is already setup and mounted and the Walktest is not needed on this site visit,
just scroll to "Arm Camera" on the Main Menu once you have spread lure and are completed
and select "OK". The camera will arm in 10 seconds. This will give you time to put the cover back
on, relock the camera to the tree, and walk away.
