Still Mode Menu Overview

[add display mock-ups?]

When the sensor is set to Still Mode, pressing the right arrow from the Home Screen will cycle through the following menu screens in order. Each screen allows adjustment of a key parameter controlling how the sensor detects motion and triggers the camera. After the final screen, the menu loops back to the Home Screen.

  1. Wireless Channel – Set or disable the wireless transmission channel used to communicate with Camtraptions receivers.

  2. Wide Sensor – Control the behaviour and relative sensitivity of the wide-angle PIR sensor.

  3. Far Sensor – Control the behaviour and relative sensitivity of the narrow-field, long-range PIR sensor.

  4. Num (Number) – Define how many photos the sensor will take per detection (1–6).

  5. FPS (Frames Per Second) – Set the shooting interval between frames (0.25–3 fps).

  6. Gap – Specify a retrigger delay between sequences to control how quickly the sensor is able to reactivate.

  7. Wake – Set a wake-up period to give cameras or flashes time to power up before triggering.

  8. Set Time – Adjust the sensor’s internal clock for accurate time-based functions.

  9. Time Mode – Enable or disable time windows that limit when the sensor is active.

  10. Set On Time – Define the time of day when the sensor becomes active.

  11. Set Off Time – Define the time of day when the sensor becomes inactive.

  12. Periodic Wake – Schedule periodic half-press pulses to prevent connected equipment from sleeping.

  13. Set Mode – Switch between Still and Video operating modes.

After the Set Mode screen, pressing the right arrow again returns to the Home Screen.
