CAPTURE MODES
The GameSpy offers four capture modes as described below.
The default capture mode is Trail Cam.
TRAIL CAM MODE
Still photos are taken when an animal is detected. The number of photos taken when an animal is detected is configurable in Settings. Photos are stored in the in the DCIM/100_MDGC folder on the SD card.
PLOT CAM MODE
The camera takes photos at a specified interval during the day and combines them together to create a Plot Video (*.MLT file) which can be viewed on the supplied Moultrie Plot Stalker software. The camera takes a Plot Video twice a day; once in the morning and once in the evening. The morning Plot Video begins 30 min before sunrise. The evening Plot Video ends 30 min after sunset. See chart below as a reference. The length of each Plot Video is determined by the Plot Duration setting in the camera menu. The camera will detect the correct sunrise and sunset times automatically and adjust itself accordingly. The Plot Videos are stored in :/PLOT folder on the SD card.
IMPORTANT: It will take the camera 24hrs to properly adjust to the correct sunrise and sunset times. As a default the camera will start the morning Plot Video at 5:30am and end the evening video at 6:30pm. To reset the sunrise and sunset times back to the default times, use the Default Settings option in the menu.
