Power Supply
SPYPOINT FLEX
CHOOSING A POWER SOURCE
3 options are available to you: · Alkaline or lithium AA batteries · Rechargeable battery 12 V (#KIT-12V sold separately) · Rechargeable battery pack 7,4 V (#LIT-22 sold separately)
NOTE
We suggest using a SPYPOINT #LIT-22 rechargeable lithium battery pack with your camera. It offers a longer battery life than AA batteries, and saves money over the life of the camera.
FOR BEST RESULTS AND NO LEAKAGE
· Use only new alkaline or lithium batteries. · Do not mix new and old batteries. · Do not use rechargeable AA batteries
(their lower voltage will generate operational issues).
HOW TO INSTALL AA BATTERIES PROPERLY
· Unlock the latch and open the FLEX door. · Place the battery holder back into the battery
compartment with arrows facing up (See Photo) · Insert the AA batteries into the battery holder
following polarity (+) and (-) indications. · Place the battery holder back into the battery
compartment.
AN EXTERNAL 12 V BATTERY
· The camera was designed to recognize and use an optional power source other than the 8 AA batteries.
· You can purchase a 12 V cable and battery kit (like the #KIT-12V, sold separately). Simply plug the 12 V cable into the 12 V jack of the camera and connect the other cable end to the 12 V battery.
MANAGING VARIOUS CAMERA POWER SUPPLY
If you choose to plug an external 12 V battery (#KIT-12V, sold separately) into your camera, it becomes your camera’s new primary power source. The AA batteries will only be used once the 12 V battery is depleted.
You can check the battery level on your device or in the mobile application: · In the application: on the home page, you will see the battery charge level
for each of your devices. You can access more details on the status of your battery by going to the STATUS page. When the battery logo turns red, we suggest that you change the batteries before it is completely drained. · Once the device is powered on. There are four green lights within the battery icon indicating the battery level.

Memory Card
SPYPOINT FLEX
INSTALLING A MEMORY CARD (NOT INCLUDED)
The use of a memory card is necessary for the operation of the camera. It is used to save photos, videos and other camera status files. Note that photos and videos in their original format are kept on the memory card. The files sent to your application are lighter versions. You can retrieve your photos and videos at any time by removing the card from the camera and transferring the contents to another device (e.g.: computer).
Your camera requires a microSD memory card, with a maximum capacity of 512 GB, sold separately. Here is a table showing the approximate quantity of photos or videos that can be recorded on the card, according to different memory card capacities.
NOTE
The FLEX is equipped with continuous mode. This means that when the memory card is full, the camera continues to save your photos and videos by erasing the first recorded files.

false detections. 3. Make sure the area immediately in front of your camera is free of branches
or twigs that could be blown away by the wind. 4. The camera should be at the same height of the animal’s mid-body. 5. The targeted animal should be at 25 feet (7.5 meters) away from the camera. 6. To produce brighter photos and videos at night, there should be items
reflecting the camera’s flash in the background.

Starting Your Camera
OPERATIONAL VALIDATION TEST
You can use the following test to make sure everything works as it should:
TEST BUTTON
The TEST button forces the camera to take a single photo and transmits it. It will NOT work if the camera is already busy with another task. (Synchronizing with the server, recording a photo/video or running through the start up sequence of the camera.) This button will only work if the camera is on an active transmission plan with photos remaining. 1. After the camera has started, and passed through the startup light
sequence, the TEST button can be used. Ensure all lights are OFF before proceeding. 2. Press the TEST button for at least 1 second. 3. Battery level will be displayed. 4. Signal lights will blink together every second until the camera receives the signal strength. Then it will display the number of lights corresponding to the signal strength. 5. All Lights will turn OFF.

IMAGE CAPTURE
CAPTURE MODE
Photo; video; time-lapse; time-lapse+
· Photo: The camera will capture photos based on the motion detection. · Video: The camera will capture video clips based on motion detection. · Time-lapse: The camera will capture photos based on a schedule set by the user. · Time-lapse+: The camera will capture photos based on a schedule set by the
user and also capture photos based on the motion detection.
MOTION DELAY
Instant; 10 seconds; 20 seconds; 30 seconds; 40 seconds; 50 seconds; 1 minute; 3 minutes; 5 minutes; 10 minutes; 15 minutes; 20 minutes; 30 minutes; 1 hour
Allows you to choose the period of time to wait before the camera detects again and records the next photo/video. A longer delay minimizes the number of photos and videos taken and therefore maximizes battery life. A shorter delay maximizes surveillance in the area but consumes more power. Shorter delays are recommended when the camera is used for security purposes.

DISPOSAL
ONLY USE ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS AND ACCESSORIES.
If, one day, your camera has been used so intensively that it has to be replaced, or if you no longer have any use for it, you are obliged to dispose of it at a recycling center.
Information on return points for your electrical appliance can be obtained from your local waste disposal company or from your local administrative offices.
Electrical appliances not only contain valuable recyclable raw materials, but also substances which, if disposed of improperly, can affect public health and the environment. Help ensure that valuable raw materials are recycled by returning your old appliance to a central collection point.
The WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive) symbol represents the obligation for the labeled camera to be sent to a separate center for the proper recycling of electrical and electronic equipment.
