this video by far is way better than the cuddelink manual. very good job. I really wish cuddelink would have a interface from a home PC that we could remote in and change setting on home base and other linked cameras. save a TON of time and less time in the field.
Ryan Roehr they just made that possible! All you need to do is download the new firmware from their site and update it on your cams and you’re in business!
@@EpicenterOutdoors thank you, and of course I put my cameras out after that..lol heading back to farm now to update it before the rain. Hey do I have reset the camera to do this as its recommended? Hope not
Ryan Roehr I don’t believe you have to reset the camera should be fine with the settings you have. I’m going to be making a video on updating the firmware ASAP. So stay on the lookout.
@@EpicenterOutdoors my home base didnt reset but the remote cameras didn't regards to channel and camera number. But it was easy fix. The new firmware PC interface is very easy to use. Like it a lot. Good luck
If you don’t have a cell camera what camera can you set as your “home” camera? I saw on their website they have a “home model”, do I need to get in order to have a home camera to have all images sent to? Or can I have say two or j or g series cameras and have one of those be the “home” camera? Also, will your home camera also operate as a camera as well? Thanks for your help.
Yes, you can set any camera you have as the home camera and it will still take pictures as well. It just won’t send the pictures to you, you’ll have to go pull the card from the home camera.
Yeah the cameras have to be armed and connected to the home camera for them to send. You have to go to the link menu and go to CL lvl to link them together.
Do you have a video walking through accessing the photos? is there an app, does one of the cameras have to have wifi? I'm confused on how to access the pictures on the home camera?
No you add the phone numbers or email addresses you want the pictures sent to on their website. In that cell management portal. You can access your pictures from that, or right in your text messages on your phone.
I just got a J series camera but i am having issues finding the IMEI and the IDDIC numbers. The cell link or cell menu option is not on my camera. Any help would be appreciated.
J series cams are intended to be used as remotes to a cell camera or a home camera without service. It does not act as a cell camera so those options would not be displayed in your case. You’d have to buy a G/K series cell camera in order to transmit pictures to your phone.
I have CL Long Range IR Model J-1521 I have solar/battery back up w/reg and rechargeable batteries and have dead battery message,replaced all batteries with new and same message Battery dead.I cannot operate the camera.These are about 3 months old and hasn't taken more than 100 pics any suggestions or factory reset.
Yeah I would probably suggest taking the batteries out and letting it completely die make sure it’s not flashing with battery dead symbol and then when you put new ones in if you should be able to go to the test menu and find reset and hit that to reset your cam.
In the Cell menu there is an option its called Cell Rate which sets the time that your cell cam will send the pictures to your phone. I set mine to send every hour because it keeps the queue from backing up and the pictures come in pretty consistently. As long as something walks by them in the hour, but if you didn't change the cell rate then the default is every 12 hours so that might be why you're not getting pictures.
How long does it take for a G series camera to link up with the cell home camera? I feel like mine have been blinking for a long time even though they are right next to each other.
Michelle Nichols it should only take a minute or two to link make sure they are both have the same firmware downloaded because they won’t link unless they are running the same FW. You can check that in the commands menu pretty much all the way to the end it will say FW version followed by a number.
Epicenter Outdoors so both the cell camera and the remote camera my need an update? And if they have the same update will they link no problem? Because I did the update on the cell camera but didn’t do it on the remote one and it finally showed 99 good.
@@michellenichols5561 the remote cams might already have the update installed if that’s the case if it’s reading that you have a signal you should be good to go!
@Samuel Arndt so the problem most likely is that you might be trying to put the whole update folder on the card. You’re only supposed to put one single file from that folder on the card other than that I don’t know why it wouldn’t update possibly a camera issue maybe something with the card port. If you want to call tomorrow I can walk you through what you need to do with that file. Thanks- Vinny
Anita Abraham I don’t think I understand your question, but the only cell cams are Ks and Gs. You can however link the J and G series cams to your cell cams. I have another video on linking them together.
@@EpicenterOutdoors on cuddeback when you add a device the only options are K or G. We have set up our K as the home, and are now receiving pics on my phone. However we followed your video on how to link the J cams and are not receiving any pics from those cameras to the home or to the phone. I thought maybe you needed to add those cameras on our cuddeback account as well in order for all of them to use the cell system. Everything is set up on our J cameras just as the video said unless im missing something. Thanks for the response and videos.
@@EpicenterOutdoors yes sir. We tried last night at the lease, and had 50 good at the lowest. For some reason, its still not sending pics to our K camera. I've watched the link video multiple times and double checked my J cams and made sure they are all on the same channel and everything is good.
