the app is definitely a work in progress and there are times its not executing the commands correctly, they are working on this daily and hope to get it 100% soon. Camp has been very reliable with the exception of changing the aspect as that is not currently functioning nor will it ever be an option on the L series as those are fixed image size.
it should say "off" instead of "1 hour" if you want prime time off -
Thought it stopped filling the queue, but it is still doing it. Partly because it is taking pictures of nothing, and partly because it is only sending 2-4 images per connection, even when there are more to send. Also, I've had this or an old G camera in that location, at that angle, for many years without any problems, but you never know. Anyway I'll be up there in two days and will swap this out and do a thorough troubleshooting on it. Thanks for the replies.
if its only sending 2-3 per connection and you have it on batch rate 1 hour longer then you have channel interference with another network, when you go there, change your channel to something random and dont use 01-05 as everyone uses those for some reason. Try 10-18 as an example . If its taking pics of nothing turn your cmaera delay to off and it will stop until you can trouble shoot .
John, need some assistance. I have 4 J-1422 and 5 J-1415‘s connecting to a home K-5789 Verizon. I went on vacation, pictures stopped, just brought the K-5728 and the batteries were a mess. Acid everywhere and liquid all over inside the camera. I think it is shot. What do I replace the K-5728 with so that it works with the cameras I currently own? I am a big Cuddyback fan, have not had any problems with my cameras for years. Don’t understand why the batteries fried. Help, it is deer season and I can’t see what is going on!!!!
G 5109 if you want a cmaera in the home , or the new L series home if you dont need a camera in it. the L costs less as a result and also has both ATT and version Sim card in it. PM me for a good place to buy.honesly you are better off with those than a K since all the power accesories work better with 4 D units,.
Not sure what the primetime does when not using time lapse. Haven't been paying attention since not planning to use it
prime time allows you to pick an dawn or dusk time period(1,2 or 3 hours) that the camera runs time lapse while still allowing it to trigger on heat and motion., Standard time lapse is time lapse only and you can only pick day or night.
This showed up by default when I selected Advanced, but time lapse off. It didn't take any time lapse during the prime time period. I'm guessing it's a default setting for time lapse, and only comes in to play if time lapse turned on. Maybe part of work in progress with the APP.
do you have an active plan on you Old K? they can switch the plan from that to you new one. I would run batteries in it as they act as back up , thats what its designed to do. Make sure if you have any J or G remotes that they are alone 8.3 firmware or it wont connect t to the new L home, the new L runs on its own firmware but will link with older models on 8.3.
you dont need to change settings on your remotes, just make sure channel matches on the home, run a link level on one remote once the home is armed, and it will find the rest of them.
I have an active plan. Who do I call to switch the cameras? Do I use Rayovac or alkaline with solar panel? All remotes are 8.3 (38 years in the computer industry, always upgrade to the latest firmware!) When the L arrives, does it need a firmware upgrade?
you can call Cuddeback CS to get the plan switched ( which is not open on weekends), you can try messaging Dan Schultz on the Cuddeback digital or Cuddeback users facebook page and he may be able to do it remotely if he is accessible, but he might be hunting today. With 4d cameras, you use Rayovac high energy Alkaline batteries (NOT RECHARGEABLE) they are back up and the solar panel runs the camera in case the panel battery gets low. You can add the new device to your camp page but DO NOT buy a plan, or even pick a plan , just add the device.... that way they can move the plan. youodnt need to update the L cell unit all L series cell units will update remotely. you do need ot manually update any L remote you add if you want them up to date.
can you post you latest report ? make sure the entire image is viewable, also what is your cell rate set at ? and your camera delays?
I attached the report, let me know if you cant view the whole image. I've tried different cell rates. Currently the cell rate is 3 hours and camera is set to 30 second delay.
normally i would say channel interference is the culprit - or a batch rate of 1 image will also slow things down. Since your channel is 15-30 its much less likely that is the issue, You may want to change out the SD card in the remote and see if that helps. If both units are easily accessible you can try changing the channel to something like 16-25 , on the outside chance you have a neighbor using 15 or 30 in their channel. I would also change cell rate to 1 hour.
Thanks John. I have brand new SD cards coming in the mail today. I'll try that. I've tried different channels over the past few weeks, per cudeback's suggestions, and nothing seems to have changed. I've also changed the cell rate from 1 hour to 6 hours. I originally had the cameras setup on a 250 acre farm, 10 minutes north of my house but relocated them to my farm so I could troubleshoot this issue but nothing seems to be working out yet. I'll let you know how the new cards respond. What does a "Normal" report look like when the home recognizes the SD card? Should the Home show images on the SD card just like camera itself? Should it be telling me how much storage the home SD card has just like the camera SD card as opposed to NA?
