To set up the Wildgame INNOVATIONS Encounter 2.0 Cellular Trail Camera, follow these steps:

1. Download the HuntSmart App: Download the HuntSmart app on your mobile device.

2. Starting the On-Boarding Process: Make sure the camera is powered off. Open the HuntSmart app and go to the "Cameras" tab. Tap on the "Add Camera" icon (looks like a mini QR code) to open the QR code scanner.

3. Scanning the QR Code: Give HuntSmart permission to use your camera for the QR scanner. Unlock and open the camera door to scan the QR code. If you have trouble with the QR code, tap on "CANNOT FIND QR CODE" and select your camera model from the device list. Enter the IMEI number found on the label inside the door.

4. Choose Your Settings: Give the camera a name and proceed to choose your settings. You can select image transmission modes, capture delay, storage management, information overlay, photo burst, reduce blur, and operating hours. Confirm your settings by pressing the "Continue" button.

5. Powering the Camera: Insert a brand new or freshly reformatted SD card into the slot on the side of the camera. Connect a 12V external battery or insert 8 new AA batteries. Make sure the batteries are inserted facing the proper direction. Slide the On-Off switch to On. The power LED should start flashing green, indicating a successful connection.

6. On-Boarding the Camera: If the camera is successfully onboarded, you will see a confirmation message in the HuntSmart app. The camera will be ready to take pictures. If on-boarding fails, turn the device off and on again to re-attempt on-boarding.

7. Select an App & Transmission Plan: Choose the HuntSmart app subscription plan for cloud data storage and select the cellular data transmission plan for the camera. Each camera requires its own individual cell plan.

8. Changing the Settings: To change the camera settings, power off the device, make the desired changes in the HuntSmart app, and power the device on again. The camera will retrieve the updated settings during startup.

9. Mounting the Camera: Use the adjustable strap included in the package to mount the camera to a tree. Ensure the camera is securely latched and positioned at a recommended distance of 25-30 feet from the target area.
