Step 1 – Activate Data Plan
The first step is to register your camera on our website.
Log in or create a new account with a new username, email address and password, then choose the menu to “Activate Data Plan”. Activate Data Plan can be located under Solutions > Hog Cameras > Activate Data Plan, or Shop > Products > Activate Data Plan, or under My Account, Activate Data Plan. Open your camera and look above the LCD screen for the camera model. Choose your model from the drop down menu. Use the picture to help identify the correct type; OD green for a M.I.N.E.® camera and camouflage for an I.C.E.® camera. Enter the 15 digit IMEI number. The number can be found on the inside of your camera or under your camera settings by looking under MENU → SYSTEM → INFORMATION (scroll down seven topics onto the second page). We have provided or sent you a new SIM card for activation. Input the 20 digit ICCID number. You will not be able to transfer a used SIM card. You must use the SIM card that came with your camera or was sent to you from JAGER PRO. Check the box to register your camera warranty then “Add Subscription to Cart”. Ensure your camera is displayed in the Shopping Bag. You may add additional subscriptions before proceeding to checkout.
Fill out your billing information and double check your order. Fill out the credit card information, then read the terms and conditions. Check the box then place order.

Your camera is operational and ready for deployment.
Step 9 – Mobile Access

Step 10 – Delivery Options (Optional – Not recommended)
Click on Account > Email Contacts. Input your email address or phone number to receive texted photos, click on Get Help for more information. Click on Cameras > Delivery Options. Select which camera you want to update from the drop-down menu then check the box for each email address or phone number to send to. The last option if you choose to use it is “Other Delivery Options”. Enter the email address or phone number you want to receive the daily status report. Once complete, click on the “Update” button.
The reason this is optional and not recommended: All photos taken from the cameras are transmitted to our website using mobile data then sent to our mobile app from our server. Carriers like AT&T and Verizon actively monitor and filter these messages to protect subscribers from spam. The carriers can also block email-to-text messages without notice which is the reason our customers were not receiving texted photos and users have no way of knowing that a problem exists. Some companies and/or government agencies’ spam filters can also block these messages. Due to the unreliable nature of email-to-text messaging we updated our app to be the primary notification method.
