i would call CS and have a picture of the damage ready, they should be able to give you an idea of cost and if it can be fixed, they do handle repairs at the main office and keep parts on hand to do so.
1. never use batch 1 when in cuddelink mode and i recommend not at all even with a stand alone , this will actually delay your images.... not make them faster, stick to 1 hour or batch 5 at the least.
Yes I admit I made the mistake trying to get it to sending them faster. I was on batch 5 down to one. I now have it set to 1 hr. Night and day delay are at 5 secs or 10 so i can tell which direction they are coming from. I did do a walk test even after it was armed and saw image on screen while walking up to it. I have it about waist high maybe a tad lower. I know I have to squat to see and adjust the settings. I did make a unique channel even though I only have one camera just in case. Maybe I have the image quality set to high I think it’s at 20mp. But trying to get quality pics. I have the correct card in. I’d like to switch it out to see what images I’m not seeing but when I put In another Sd card even with firmware on it it gives error code. I saw it had video settings but I have never seen a video but didn’t bother with that setting. It’s complicated but I can understand it. I just don’t understand what’s jamming it up during the day.
if you have it set to "home" in link mode, your images are going to be thumbnails anyways. If not and you chose 20 mp you will use all your data very fast in a few pics. Keep the image size at small or on link mode home and if you need a hi res image pull the card. 32 gb is the largest card it can take.
this was when you had it set to one hour? one other thing you should know if you are receiving images only via text, many cell providers block or filter images sent via text. You can double check to see that all images are making it to to your phone by checking the photos page on your cell management page, using the cudde app or adding an email address to your relay. Those other 3 options cant be filtered or blocked.
that would mean its set to a "batch" and not 1 hour. PM me your login email nd password and ill look at your account.
Yessir it’s set to home. I think it was on 20 mp so I’ll got out tomorrow and bump it down. It is a 16 in the camera currently and I have a 32 to go in if I can figure out how to get the camera to accept it.

running that high you will miss almost all deer pics, you would need to angle them down towards the ground and it will severely restrict your detection area, an example where this would work is on a scrape or specific trail. if you want to cover the maximum area Cuddeback's work best when set waist high or lower and level to the ground. if you have to run them high you will need ot know ecaxlty where the deer will walk and aim it directly at that spot. you can increase sensitivity by changing out the fresnel lens to a centered 9004 model lens but you will still restrict the area where it is triggered by deer dramatically. ive heard people have good success putting hot pepper spray on the antennas to deter animals chewing them.
Would the genius mount with all the adjustments be a viable option to mount high and angle down?
yes that would be the best option for aiming it
When I mount them high (in an area prone to flooding for example) I jam a stick behind the upper portion of the mount to angle it downward. Works with the straps, or if you are screwing the mounts directly to the tree. Just pick the right sized stick to give the angle you want.
