12V Power

SPYPOINT camera model IR-A can be used with an external

12V DC input. When using 12V DC power, we recommend

removing alkaline batteries to prevent surcharges. A 12V cable

CB-12ft (sold separately) allows connecting the camera to a

12V battery.

MEMORY CARD

The SD slot in the SPYPOINT camera model IR-A can accept

optional SD memory cards up to 8GB. Before inserting or

removing the memory card, the camera MUST be turned off.

Failing to do so may cause loss of photos or damage to the

memory card. When the internal memory or the SD card is full,

the LCD panel will show “FULL”. The following data shows

an approximate quantity of photos that can be recorded by the

camera depending on the memory card capacity.

English

SETTINGS

Picture Quality, Date and Time

Turn off your camera, set the mode switch to «Test» and set

the power switch to «ON». Press «MENU» once. The default

setting «H» (6MP) icon will flash. Use «DOWN» if you want to

change to «L» resolution (3MP). Press «MENU» button to set

date and time. Use «UP» and «DOWN» to change the blinking

number. Press «MENU» to set next option. Press «OK» and

turn off the system to record the changes. The camera’s internal

memory (32MB) can store approximately 65 pictures in 3MP

mode (low resolution) and 22 pictures in 6MP mode (high

resolution). The SD slot accepts optional SD card to record

more pictures.

MODE

When you select «Photo» or «Video», the test

light on the front of the unit will light up for 60

seconds while the motion detector charges up.

When you select «Test» you can set your system

or test the distance setting. The test light on the

front of the unit will light when the camera detects motion.

When you notice how the camera reacts to your motion, you

may want to adjust the distance setting, change the direction or

height of the camera. The camera doesn’t take pictures while in

«Test» mode. When «MODE» switch is set to «View», you can

review the recorded pictures or videos.

WORK

Day : Photos or videos daytime only

Night : Photos or videos night-time only

24H : Photos or videos anytime

DELAY

Selects the time the camera will wait before

recording another photo or video. This option

prevents taking too many photos or videos of

the same object should it remain in front of the

camera for a lengthy period of time.

English

MULTI-SHOT

Allows for a 20 second interval between 4

consecutive photos. This option shows a different

view of all 4 photos.

VIDEO-LENGTH

Selects the video length when the camera is set in video mode.

DISTANCE

The distance dial sets the motion detector

sensitivity. Use this feature to set the

detection range required. Turn dial to the

right to increase distance. Range of detector

is between 5 and 50ft. The best method

to determine a proper distance is to turn

«MODE» switch to «Test» and to walk

perpendicularly to the front of the camera where action is

anticipated. When the detector is activated, the test light on the

front of the camera will blink once. At this moment, the camera

operator may want to adjust the distance setting, and/or change

the direction or height of the camera.

DOWNLOAD TO A COMPUTER

To transfer or view photos and videos on a PC, you must first

turn the camera off and use the USB cable (supplied) to connect

the camera to your computer. The computer will then recognize

the camera as a removable disk drive. Camera operator must

wait until the termination of computer software installation

(few seconds) before clicking on Desktop. Then, click on

removable disk and look to find folder with DCIM. Click on

the DCIM folder and all the photos and videos will be found in

100DSCIM folder. Photos and videos can be viewed, edited or

deleted with your computer’s software.

Taking the SD card out of the camera and inserting it in the

computer port will achieve same results. If no SD slot is built

into the computer, a multi-card reader RD25-1 (sold separately)

must be used.
