Operation Of The Osd Menu; Test Mode - Conrad 406118 Mode D'emploi

• Place the wildlife camera with the correct position on the mounting bracket. The two small pins in the
mounting bracket and the corresponding contact surfaces above the LC display must overlap.
Fix the wildlife camera on the mounting bracket using the two locking brackets (18) to the left and right of
the mounting bracket.
• With the locking screw (20) on the back of the mounting bracket the wildlife camera can be secured.
• The approach depends on where you want to install the wildlife camera. The included fabric strap can be
used to attach the camera to a tree, for instance. There is a thread on the underside of the wildlife camera
for fixation on tripods, etc.
Select the installation location carefully. Keep a safety distance from roads, hiking trails, etc., as
this can easily lead to theft or vandalism of the game camera.
The wildlife camera should be attached such that it lies between the sun and the area to be
monitored, i.e. the sun should be "behind" the wildlife camera.
Functional description of the PIR sensor
• A PIR sensor does not detect the movement of an object, but heat change in the detection range (for
example, the movement of a warm animal on the cooler forest ground).
• Therefore, recognition of an animal by a PIR sensor and successful recording of a photo or video depend
on several factors:
- Size and kind of animal
- Heat emitted by the animal
- Distance of the animal from the wildlife camera
- Ambient temperature
- Speed at which the animal moves
• The two side PIR sensors have an aperture angle of 10° each; owing to the lateral arrangement in the
housing, they monitor a range of 100°.
The middle PIR sensor has an aperture angle of 35°.
• If the side PIR sensors detect a heat change in the detection range, the wildlife camera is "activated". Only
when the middle main PIR sensor detects a heat change, the wildlife camera starts photo / video recording.
Selecting a language for the OSD menu
When the slide switch is in the „test" position and the video image is displayed (not in the OSD menu!), select
the desired language by repeatedly pressing the „G " key (a text information appears about the currently
active language). Then wait until the language displayed on the LCD display goes blank. If you now activate
the OSD menu (see next section), it appears in the language selected.

Operation of the OSD Menu

To open the OSD menu and make settings, proceed as follows:
• Move the sliding switch (14) to the "TEST" position:
• The LC display (16) shows the live image from the built-in camera (2) after a few seconds.
• Press the "MENU" button to open and quit the OSD menu.
• Press the "S" and "F" buttons to select the desired setting function.
• The "►" or "G " buttons are used to change a setting.
• For quick adjustment, hold the corresponding arrow button longer.
• Press "OK" to confirm and save each setting made.
To save power, the display automatically switches off after about 2 minutes. Move the sliding
switch to the "OFF" position and back to the "TEST" position and open the OSD menu again.
The Following Setting Functions are Available:
"Mode" Here, you can set whether the wildlife camera stores only photos ("Camera") or videos
("Video") when triggered by the PIR motion sensor. If you select "Cam + Video", then
the wildlife camera first takes a photo and then records a video.
Confirm the setting by pressing "OK", otherwise it will not be accepted.
"Format" This function is used to format the memory card inserted. After confirming with the
"OK" button, a security query appears ("No" = Cancel, "Yes" = format memory card).
All data on the memory card will be lost during the formatting process.
"Photo Size" Select whether the photos are saved with a resolution of 5 or 12 mega pixels. The
latter requires more memory on the memory card; the writing process also requires
more time.
"Video Size" Use this function to set the resolution of the videos in which they are saved by the
wildlife camera. You can choose between 1920 x 1080, 1280 x 720, 640 x 480 and
320 x 240 pixels.
"Set Clock" After selecting this function, and confirming with the "OK" button, the current date
and time are displayed. Press the "►" or "G " arrow button to select the position you
wish to change. Press the "S" or "F" button to set the value marked by a rectangular
margin, e.g. the hours of the time.
Confirm the settings as usual by pressing the "OK" button, otherwise they will not be
accepted.
"Picture No." Here, you set the number of photos taken by the wildlife camera when the PIR motion
sensor is activated. 1, 2, or 3 photos can be set.
"Video Length" Here, you set the length of the video recording, when the PIR motion sensor is acti-
vated. An interval of 1 - 60 seconds can be set.
"Interval" Using this function, you can set how long the wildlife camera will pause after a record-
ing. An interval of 1 second to 60 minutes can be set.
Example: You set a time of 1 minute. If the wildlife camera was activated by the PIR
motion sensor and a photo or video was taken, it is reactivated only after expiry of this
time period.
This is to prevent continuous recording when an animal is in the detection range for a
longer time.
"Sense Level" Using this function you can choose between 3 different levels of PIR sensitivity:
"Normal" = normal sensitivity, "High" = high sensitivity, "Low" = low sensitivity.
Note that high sensitivity may lead to false alarms. In contrast, only larger items (or
larger heat changes in the detection range) are detected at low sensitivity.
"Time Stamp" In order to know when a photo was saved, direct display of the date and time on the
photo (not for videos!) can be enabled here.
With display enabled, the current temperature reading is also stored in the photo (in
°C and °F), as there is a temperature sensor in the wildlife camera.
"Timer1" If you choose "On" in this setting function and press the "OK" button, start time
("Start: h-m") and an end time ("Stop: h-m") during which the wildlife camera should
be activated can be set.
When you set the start time at 8:00 p.m. and end time at 7:30 a.m., for instance, the
wildlife camera works only from 8:00 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. This not only prevents un-
wanted photos/videos (e.g. heat changes in the detection range due to sun's radiation,
for instance), but also saves power and prolongs the service life of the wildlife camera.
"Timer2" If preferred, a second interval during which the wildlife camera should be active can
be set here. Follow the description for "Timer1".
"Password Set" After selecting this function and confirming with the "OK" button, you can enter a
password (4-digit number, e.g. 9876) to secure access to the OSD menu.
Keep this password in a safe place!
"Serial NO" If you use multiple game cameras, you can set a 4-digit number / letter combination
that is shown at the bottom of each photo (not for videos!).
"Time Lapse" This function enables automatically timed recording (setting "On"). The recording is
done irrespective of an activation by the PIR motion sensor; the time selected in the
setting function "Interval" is used as the interval.
Example: You set a time of 60 minutes in the setting function "Interval". The wildlife
camera will now save a photo or video every 60 minutes.
"Side PIR" With "On", you can turn on both the side PIR motion sensors, with "Off" you can turn
them off.
Switching off the wildlife camera prolongs its service life, but it can also lead to prob-
lems in recording photos or videos of animals.
If set to „On", the oldest files will be overwritten by new recordings when the memory
„Recycle"
card becomes full. If set to „Off", this function will be deactivated (and it will not be
possible to free up space for further recordings when the memory card becomes full).
Pressing the "OK" button resets all settings to the factory settings.
"Default Set"
Inserting/Removing the Memory Card
• Loosen the small locking clip first, then rotate it about 45° to the right clockwise.
• Switch the wildlife camera off (switch position "OFF").
• Insert a memory card (SD or SDHC, max. 16GB) into the corresponding slot (13) until it clicks. Please
pay attention to the correct orientation. Check beforehand whether the write protection of the memory
card is disabled.
• To remove the memory card, slightly push it into the slot, and then release the memory card. The latching
mechanism in the slot pushes the memory card out slightly so that it can be easily removed.
• Close the bottom flap (9) and lock it with the locking clip.

Test mode

• Move the sliding switch (14) to the "TEST" switch position.
• You can test detection by the built-in PIR sensors in the test mode by moving through the detection range.
The LED (6) will flash briefly when the PIR sensors detect a heat change in the detection range.
LED flashes red: Heat change was detected by the middle main PIR sensor
LED flashes blue: Heat change was detected by a side PIR sensor
In recording mode (sliding switch (14) in the switch position "ON"), there is no display by the LED
in order to not drive away any animal or draw the attention of any hiker to the device.
