The “Rotation Method” for checking cameras
Here is a simple, yet clever system for using your CuddeView X2 to make checking scouting cameras more efficient.
Each scouting camera has an SD card installed.
We recommend 1 GB cards for Cuddeback cameras.
Install 2 blank SD cards into the CuddeView X2, one in the
Source card slot, one in the Destination card slot. Again, we recommend 1 GB cards.
When checking your scouting camera, follow these next steps:
Remove the SD card from the scouting camera.
•
Remove the blank Source SD card from CuddeView X2
•
and install this card into your camera. Re-arm the camera. You are now finished with that camera.
Install the camera’s SD card into CuddeView X2’s Source
•
card slot.
Copy the images from the Source card to the Destination
•
card. While images are being copied you can leave the area and travel to your next camera.
Once the copy process is complete, delete the images
•
from the Source SD card (be careful, do NOT delete the images from the Destination card). (continued)
1110
View these new images by selecting the Destination card
•
and using the key to view the most recent images. Continue viewing in reverse order to eliminate having to view all the images on the Destination card.
Check additional cameras using this same “Rotation
•
Method.” By swapping the blank Source card with the camera card you save the time of waiting for images to copy. You also go home with all images saved to a single Destination card.
