Set Up & Recording:
Remove any PIR sensor protectors before using your camera.
Open the hatch at the base of the camera & insert an SD Card (class 10, 16G max) and AA batteries
(at least 4). The camera can hold a maximum of 8 batteries so you can choose to add an extra 4 in
the back pack should you wish to - this would give your camera longer running time in the field.
Please read the section later in these pages about which batteries to use, battery choice is vital
to the performance of your Ltl Acorn trail camera and batteries are always the first place to
start if you think there is a problem with your camera!
Carefully remove back plate from camera body using the clips on each side and hand-tightening
screw on the back. The safest way to do this to avoid putting unnecessary stress on the side clips is
to hold the 2 parts of the camera together firmly with one hand whilst releasing the clips, one at a
time, with the other.
Move the ON/OFF/TEST switch on the bottom of camera to the TEST position.
The LCD screen will come on (will go straight off again if you have not inserted a compatible SD
card).
Push the MENU button & use the arrow keys to select & change settings.
Remember to push OK button after each setting change to save it.
Move the ON/OFF/TEST switch to the ON position, the LCD screen will now switch off & the
camera is now ready to start recording whenever motion/heat change is detected. You will see a red
light blink on the front of the camera for about 10 seconds after switching the camera into ON
mode, this is to give you time to move out of the sensor range to avoid recording yourself.
Close bottom hatch & re-fit back plate before putting camera in chosen location. Use the side clips
and the screw on the back to best seal the camera from the elements. The screw also takes some of
the strain off the side clips.
BATTERIES:
Batteries are not included but battery choice is vital for the performance of your camera.
UK distributor recommends Energizer Ultimate Lithium (for non rechargeables) or Panasonic
Eneloop Pro 2500mA (for rechargeables) but you can also speak to your retailer for advice on
which batteries they recommend.
Power issues can bring about many strange glitches and problems with any trail camera so it’s very
important to use a recommend brand and type before assuming you have a fault with the camera
itself.
IMPORTANT – Do not leave batteries inside the camera if you are not using it, this could
result in acid leak and ruin the camera – this is not covered under warranty!
