How to Check a Moultrie Game Camera
Game cameras are digital cameras used by hunters and hobbyists alike to capture photographs or video of animals that pass by. A game camera is weatherproof and can be mounted on a tree or post. It will automatically take photographs until the memory card is full or you return to check it. You can easily check your Moultrie game camera by connecting it to a television or using your computer.

Tips & Warnings
You can also check the camera's contents by viewing it from the memory card. To do this, insert the card into a compatible card-reader, go to "My Computer" and double-click on the drive letter for the memory card.
Some later models of Moultrie Game Cameras have a "Playback" mode. If your camera has this mode, then you will need to have the camera in "Playback" mode instead of "Setup" mode to view the images and videos on your TV.
