and minute you want, for a recording “block” that lasts anywhere from just a minute to a full 24 hours.

4.Set the [Start] and [Stop] times, beginning with the Start hour, using the UP/DOWN keys to change the setting. The hour setting is based on a 24-hour clock, with “00” hours = midnight, “12” hours = noon, “23” hrs = 11PM, etc. To move to the next setting, press the RIGHT key, change the minute for the Start time with UP/DOWN, then on to the hour and minute settings for the Stop time.

5.After you finish setting the last time setting (Stop minutes), another press of the RIGHT key will take you to the setting for Interval. This lets you control how often a photo or video clip is recorded during the block of time you defined with the Start and Stop settings. Note that for videos, this is independent of the length of each video recording- it’s how often videos are recorded, not how long each one lasts. Your options are 60 minutes, 30 minutes, 15 minutes, 5 minutes (this is the default), or 1 minute-use the UP/DOWN keys to select your preference, then press OK to save it.

6.Here’s an example of how the camera would operate, based on the following Time Lapse settings:

Time Lapse: On

[Start]: 16:00

[Stop]: 18:30

[Interval]: 15M

These settings would cause the camera to take a photo (or video, depending on which you have it set for) beginning at 4 PM, then another one at 4:15, 4:30, etc.–one every 15 minutes, until the Time Lapse recording stops at 6:30 PM. The next day, the camera would again record an image or video once every 15 minutes between 4 and 6:30 PM. Remember, this is independent of normal triggers due to animal activity–even if no animals enter the IR sensor coverage zone, an image or video will still be captured every 15 minutes during the

2.5hour block of time. If an animal triggers the camera “in between” the 15 minute intervals, it will be recorded, same as it would if you had setup the camera with Time Lapse turned Off. Note: Time Lapse settings of frequent intervals and/or long periods between start and stop time can reduce battery life.
