Lock/Unlock Feature (Protecting Files)
To protect the currently displayed photo/video from being accidentally deleted or erased, briefly press the Delete button to view the Delete Menu. Press the Delete button to move down the list until “LOCK” is highlighted, then press the Left button to confirm. The display will indicate “LOCKED” then return to the normal view. A padlock icon will now be visible in the top right corner whenever this photo or video file is displayed on the Viewer. This means that the DELETE (ONE or ALL) function will not be able to affect the protected file, and it will remain on the card (until it is “unlocked” and deleted). To unlock or remove the delete protection from currently displayed file, select “UNLOCK” from the Delete Menu and press the Left button to confirm. The padlock icon will be removed, and the photo can be erased now if desired.
The “Lock” feature can be very useful if you only have two photos you want to keep that are stored on a card along with a large number of other photos that aren’t any good and you wish to erase over. Simply “lock” the two good photos, then use the DELETE ALL function. All photos except the two locked ones will be quickly
Copying Photos To A Second Card (Camera Slot > Storage Slot)
The Viewer will also allow you to copy your photos from your camera’s card to a new SD card. This is a very convenient way to take your trail camera pictures home with you to view, print, etc on a PC, while returning the original card to the trail camera to capture another round of photos. To do this, remove the card from the camera, copy its contents to a new SD card you have inserted in the “Storage” slot (B), then you can delete all the photos from the original card and put it back in your camera. If you are using multiple trail cameras to cover a large area, you can “make the rounds” and repeat this process for all of
