@MoistTacos27 no infact I don't recommend the apps anymore. They all lead you on a wild goose chase these days. We include instructions on the suggested method but basically you rotate the antenna 10° at a time and restart the camera at each point allowing it to aquire signal. Do this 360° taking note of the strongest signal. Return to the direction of strongest signal and fine tune there. Restarting the camera is important.

@johnsoncraig22302 ай бұрын
Sorry bro you got half of this wrong. If running the camera on “AA” batteries it needs 12 to operate…. 12 batteries at 1.5 volts each is 18volts…. Half of this voltage (9v) comes from each side of the pack (Using the center pin you should measure 9volts on each leg (the poles on the side of the pack), with one leg functioning as a bypass for external power (ie: solar pack).
@herd3602 ай бұрын
@johnsoncraig2230 that would be correct if all 12 were in series. However, they are not. The battery tray is a 6s2p configuration, meaning 6 in series or 6x1.5v and 2 banks of 6 in parallel.
@herd3602 ай бұрын
This is why the camera will function down below 7v. If you load one side of the battery tray with brand new AAs the camera will function and show 100% battery level.
