The Moultrie Mobile Delta Cellular Trail Camera is a sophisticated device designed for remote wildlife monitoring and surveillance, offering users the ability to capture and transmit images and videos wirelessly. This owner's operation manual provides comprehensive instructions for setting up, operating, and maintaining the camera, ensuring optimal performance in the field.
The Moultrie Mobile Delta is a cellular trail camera that automatically captures images and videos of wildlife, then transmits them to a user's Moultrie Mobile account via a cellular network. This allows users to monitor their property or hunting grounds remotely without needing to physically retrieve SD cards. The camera is equipped with an antenna for cellular connectivity, an ambient light sensor, a lens and image sensor for capturing visuals, and a PIR sensor to detect movement and trigger image capture. It also features 940 NM high-power IR LEDs for invisible flash photography at night, ensuring that animals are not spooked by visible light. A built-in GPS provides location data for the camera, which can be useful for tracking its placement. The camera's design includes a robust housing with a door latch, cable lock attachment points for security, and a 1/4-20 tripod mounting port for versatile placement options. An external power jack input allows for extended operation with an external battery source.
Setting up the Moultrie Mobile Delta involves several key steps. First, users must create or log into their Moultrie Mobile account via the app or website and activate the device by selecting a plan. Once activated, the antenna needs to be attached, and 12 new AA batteries (alkaline or lithium, but not rechargeable) must be installed. The camera requires a Class 10 SD card (32GB or smaller; SDXC, Micro/Mini, Ultra Capacity, or High-Speed cards are not recommended).
Powering on the camera is done by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button for about 5 seconds until the LEDs illuminate. A 15-second delay follows, allowing the SD card to format. It is crucial to format the SD card each time a new one is inserted to ensure proper operation and prevent errors. This can be done by pressing and holding the FORMAT SD button until the SD CARD LED blinks yellow, then turns solid green upon successful completion. If the LED turns red, the formatting failed, and the process should be repeated or a different card used. Users also have the option to format the SD card remotely via the Moultrie Mobile app or website.
The camera includes an "AIM MODE" to assist with positioning. By simultaneously pressing and holding the FORMAT SD button and CONNECT/STATUS button, a red LED on the front of the camera will glow when movement is detected within the field of view, helping users optimize camera placement.
To capture and transmit a test image, users press and hold the CONNECT/STATUS button for at least 5 seconds. The status LEDs will illuminate during transmission, and once the server LED turns green, the test image has been successfully transmitted. Users are advised to confirm receipt of the test picture by logging into their Moultrie Mobile account. Additionally, users can manually transmit any photos captured since the last connection by briefly pressing and releasing the CONNECT/STATUS button.
Camera settings, such as trigger sensitivity, upload frequency, and video recording options, can be adjusted remotely through the Moultrie Mobile app or website. These settings will be applied the next time the camera connects to Moultrie Mobile. The manual emphasizes the importance of confirming the camera's status using the LED indicators before leaving the camera in the field.
Mounting the camera is straightforward, with strap slots on the back for attachment to a tree or pole, typically around three feet from the ground. For enhanced security, the camera can be used with a Master Lock Python™ cable locking system or a Moultrie Security Box. The 1/4-20 tripod mounting port allows for use with Moultrie EZ Tree Mount or Camera Stake accessories.
Tips for best photos include facing the camera North or South to avoid over-exposure from the sun, clearing brush from the front of the camera to prevent false triggers, and positioning the camera to look down a game trail rather than directly at it.
The manual provides a comprehensive troubleshooting guide to address common issues. For SD card errors, it recommends using a new 4GB to 32GB Class 10 SD card and always formatting it in the camera before each use. If formatting doesn't resolve the issue, users are directed to the support section of the Moultrie Mobile app or website.
To reduce false triggers, users can optimize trigger sensitivity settings (High, Medium, Low) via the app or website. It is advised to avoid pointing the camera into the sun (east/west) and placing it in open fields during summer, as warm sunlight and heat-related triggers can cause false positives. Placing the camera on stable trees and clearing nearby vegetation also helps prevent false triggers caused by wind-blown branches or sun-warmed grass.
For server connection issues, troubleshooting steps include formatting or replacing the SD card, moving the camera to an area with better cellular coverage, verifying battery levels, and checking the antenna for damage or proper attachment.
If users are not receiving new image notifications, the manual suggests checking for app updates, signing out and back into the app, clearing the app cache (for Android), verifying push notification settings within the app, and ensuring push notifications are enabled on their phone's operating system. Force closing, uninstalling, reinstalling the app, and restarting the phone are also recommended.
The Moultrie Mobile Delta Cellular Trail Camera comes with a 2-year limited warranty covering defects in material and workmanship. For warranty service, users should visit the support section of the Moultrie Mobile app or website to contact a technician. Physical damage, alterations, or tampering with the equipment will invalidate the warranty. The manual also notes that internal batteries are required even when using an external battery source.
