Timelapse+ Mode Overview

Timelapse+ Mode combines scheduled interval photography with motion-activated captures:

Daytime: The camera takes photos at set intervals, regardless of motion and takes motion triggered images.
Day & Night: It captures images when motion is detected, similar to Trail Cam mode.

Note: Timelapse interval photos are only taken during daylight hours. At night, only motion-triggered images are captured.

Setting Up Timelapse+ Mode

Select Mode: Set the camera to Timelapse+.
Timelapse Frequency: Choose the interval between photos (e.g., every 5 minutes).
Timelapse Duration: Define the active period:

All Day: From sunrise to sunset.
2, 3, or 4 Hours: The camera activates for the specified duration after sunrise and again before sunset.

Examples:

All Day, 5-Minute Intervals: The camera captures images every 5 minutes from sunrise to sunset and also takes motion-triggered photos day and night.
3 Hours, 2-Minute Intervals: The camera captures images every 2 minutes for 3 hours after sunrise and 3 hours before sunset, plus motion-triggered photos throughout the day and night.

Automatic Adjustment: Over time, the camera learns and adjusts to changing sunrise and sunset times.

Software: Use the Buck Watch Timelapse Viewer (Windows only) to view Timelapse+ images placed in the daily .TLS file on the SD card. If the software wasn't included with your camera, you can download it here: Buck Watch Timelapse Viewer Software Download.
File Conversion: Change the file extension from .TLS to .AVI to view images with standard media players.
File Storage:
- Daytime Motion-Triggered Images: Stored within the Timelapse file, interleaved with interval photos.
- Nighttime Motion-Triggered Images: Stored separately in the DCIM folder on the SD card.
