Frequently Asked Questions - Black800 5K BRAUN

What to do if the camera does not turn on?

Check that you have installed six new 1.5V batteries (alkaline or lithium) respecting polarity. Use if possible lithium AA batteries for optimal reliability. If the problem persists, test the batteries with a voltmeter or contact customer service.

Why are night photos all black?

Take a manual photo in a dark place. If it is still black, make sure the infrared LEDs are active and that nothing obstructs the sensor. If the problem persists, contact support.

How to avoid false triggers (photos without subject)?

Move the camera to avoid moving branches or heat sources in front of the lens. Reduce the PIR sensitivity in the menu settings. Also test indoors to isolate the problem.

Battery life is shorter than expected, what to do?

Use good quality 1.5V lithium AA batteries (type Energizer). Avoid NiMH rechargeable batteries (1.2V) which may reduce performance. Also check that the SD card is a recognized brand.

What type of memory card to use?

Use a microSD/SDHC/SDXC card of class 10, up to 512 GB. Format it in the camera before first use via the menu Format memory card.

How to install the camera on a tree?

Thread the provided mounting strap through the back bracket, wrap it around the tree, and tighten. You can also use the wall mounting kit for better stability.

What does the 'TEST' mode mean?

TEST mode allows you to configure the camera (settings, manual shooting, playback). After 1 minute of inactivity, the camera automatically turns off to save batteries. To use the camera outdoors, switch to ON mode.

How to protect my recordings with a password?

Enable password protection in the menu and set a 4-digit code. The camera will prompt for this password to access settings or files. Keep it safe.

Can the camera be used in rainy weather?

Yes, the camera is certified IP66, which protects against water jets and dust. However, avoid immersion. Place it in a sheltered location if possible.

How to set the video recording duration?

In the menu, select Video length and choose a duration from 5 to 59 seconds or 1 to 5 minutes. For night recordings, it is recommended not to exceed 30 seconds to save batteries.

FAQ

If your camera does not seem to be functioning properly or if you are having photo/video quality issues, please check if you are using the latest firmware, and check the Troubleshooting/FAQ section.

Q: Camera won't power up

Make sure that you have installed six 1.5V new batteries in the battery compartment, filling all battery spaces with no "gaps". Make sure that the batteries are installed correctly, observing proper polarity. Always place the negative (flat) end of each battery in contact with the spring side of its slot inside the camera. Or install the batteries again to check if the camera can power up.

We recommend using new 6 high-quality 1.5V Alkaline or Lithium AA batteries. In some cases, the new batteries might be defective, even would be no power, it would be quite good if you have meter to measure the batteries voltage to double check. Rechargeable AA batteries are NOT recommended as the lower voltage they produce can cause operational issues. The worst case is that the camera can't be powered up.

Q: The camera takes great daytime pictures, but nighttime pictures are all black.

Manually take pictures at low lighting place (such as a dark room indoors). Review the pictures on the camera screen or your computer, if they are still all black, send the version and the black pictures to our support email for further assistance.

Q: The camera takes continuous images of no subject

A camera has what is known as a "False Trigger" if the PIR sensor thinks that there is motion and heat in front of the camera lens when there is no subject in the image. These "False Triggers" are the result of placing the camera in an environment where there is motion associated with tree branches creating motion in front of the camera or an area where there is high heat in the foreground and any motion from wind could set off the camera. Setting a camera up over water is also a potential cause for this issue. To remedy this situation:

Try moving the camera to an area that does not have any of these issues or try changing the sensor level on the menu settings.

If the camera continues to take images when there is no subject in them, try placing the camera in an inside environment and aiming at a location where there is no motion.

If the camera continues to show issues, then there is probably an electronic component issue. If this is the case, please contact our customer service to send the camera back for repair.

Q: Battery life is shorter than expected

Battery life will vary with operating temperature and the number of images taken over time. Typically, the camera will be able to capture several thousand images before the batteries die.

Check to make sure you have used new batteries. We recommend using six good quality Lithium AA 1.5V batteries in all cameras to obtain maximum battery life.

Make sure that you are using a good quality name-brand SD card in your camera. Our experience indicates that poor-quality SD cards can sometimes reduce your camera battery life.
