Fix camera to a tree, pole or any suitable object. Best range is 3-10 meters from camera to object. For security reasons you may obtain cable lock optionally.

Camera Check Up
Options to check if the camera has taken pictures:
1) Open camera housing and enter Setup mode
2) The lower line of starting menu shows the number of pictures taken and the remaining full space
3) Press OK to view the pictures
4) Alternatively switch camera off and exchange the memory card by a fresh one. So you can view images on your computer or TV.
It is recommended to check the battery status as well. When capacity goes down, it will be more difficult to achieve correctly illuminated night shots.
In case of doubt, replace batteries by new ones.
Tips & Tricks
1. Memory card
WerecommendusingtheDörr4GBSDHCcard991050memorycard,whichallowstostoreapprox.4000pictures.Camerasupportcardsupto16GB.
2. Lens rattle
A filter covers the lens, it allows colored pictures at daylight and black & white shots at night. When camera is turned off the filter is not fixed which can cause the rattle.

3. Weather resistance
Although the camera is weather resistant, we recommend to mount the camera in a protected area, where it is not exposed to direct rain or permanent sun.
4. Motion Detector (PIR Sensor)
The sensor reacts under specific condition and within a certain range. Generally the detection range is slightly smaller then the camera´s picture angle. The detection of
objects depends on temperature and other circumstances like vegetation and reflecting areas. Ideal conditions, perfect adjustment and high sensibility allow the camera to
reach 20m triggering. An average of 10m should be considered normal. Several testings are necessary to get the best position for the camera.
5. Light conditions
Consider that back light is not good to take proper pictures.
Carefully choose the position of camera, so it is not directly facing sun or complete shadow.
