    Cuddeback's Cuddelink

    just put the menu on clock or "test" and remove batteries, when screen goes completely blank, then put new batteries in , all your settings will remain the same. run a cell test before you arm the cell home unit to make sure its connected.

    Honey Bees

    thank you for the advice! what you described makes sense based on what i saw inside my dead hive, the capped frames were on the other side of the super from the cluster - im going to go into the two active hives tomorrow and see if i can slip a full frame or two of Honey in there as insurance...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    there is, but its not public since different codes mean different things on different cameras, that said if you call CS ask here or on FB pages someone will aways answer. In your case, thats a general SD card error meaning the card is corrupted , to large or something else is wrong with it like...

    1. yes, they will attempt to transmit if they are waiting on the card and in the remote que. 2. yes, clear your remote que and cell que on all cameras, this is assuming there is less than the CL count or QUE is currently set to hold ( 250 images is default ) 3. You can clear the card but you...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    im not sure what you mean by external power settings? do you mean Flash/ir mode setting? you cant change the external power settings, the external shows when the voltage is higher than the internal and only on 4D cameras.

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    no plans for temp- at best we may have an option to link it to a weather report by day but i believe one can already do that on yoru own. battery percentage is difficult since its so variable based on ambient temp with alkaline, this is why its just EXT Ok, EXT low , OK, Low- its only accurate...

    there is plans for that but its a longer process since remotes using RF network link to the home units cell time, Time zone also play a factor so its not an easy project.

    Replacing dead ash trees

    check with your local NRCS office, there is programs Via CSP and EQUIP that pays you to replace the ash and also fence off the newly planted trees. I am replacing the ash with Swamp white oak, tamarack, wild plum and cedar. At a minimum the payments would allow you to pay someone to come in...

    Cuddelink L series Q & A

    try the reset under tests. if its a j cmaera there isnt a cell mode. Link mode under link menu is what you would want to look for after you do the reset. If link menu is gone after the reset, then the radio failed. Even if its out of warranty , they will allow you to trade it in towards a new...

    if you reloaded firmware and your sure cudddelink mode is on and not off - you can try a reset under tests as a last resort - if this doesnt work your radio may have went out . if its under warranty then I would suggest sending it in.

    Best Midwest bedding/Cover possible?

    you may want to talk to your area NRCS office and look into CSP and or Equip , the contract period can be shorter and the payments are good, that is mostly what i am in now after initially goign with CRP. You can enroll 1 acre at a time instead of all 5 .
