  • Remove the memory card from the camera and read it out with an external card reader (optionally available).

MOUNTING / DIRECTING / ACTIVATING

1. Mounting and directing the camera

2. Pull the supplied mounting strap (20) through the eyelet (17) on the backside of the camera. Mount the camera to a tree, pole or any other suitable object. Do not fix the belt finally at this stage.

3. We recommend placing the camera at a height of 0.75 m to 1.00 m. The optimal distance to the subject is between 3 and 10 m. Larger distances are possible as well, but then the reliability of the motion sensor is no longer given. The camera lens (04) should now point to where the object is expected to show-up.

4. To verify your camera is hung up in a correct angle, we recommend taking a view test photos (see chapter 09). The camera should be directed in a way that the object will appear in the centre of the picture. You may have to re-adjust the camera and take another test shot.

5. NOTICE
   To change the camera angle you can use e.g. a small wooden wedge between camera and trunk. Please also note chapter 11 with our ex-tensive range of accessories for installation and anti-theft protection.

6. Once the camera position is correct, the mounting belt (20) can be tightened to hold the camera firmly. After successful assembly and test recording, switch the camera off (11 = OFF).

7. Turn on camera and start surveillance
   In order to get the camera ready to work, move the slide control (11) to the position ON and close the camera housing. After approx. 10 seconds, the camera will be active. In case of movements detected, it takes pictures according to your settings.

8. Notes for mounting the camera

9. PIR sensor
   The PIR sensor triggers only under specific circumstances within a certain range. The capturing of objects strongly depends on temperature, vegetal cover, reflecting surfaces etc. Under perfect conditions the recognition range can be up to 20m. Usually, you may expect a range of 15 m. It may take a few attempts to find a good position for the camera. During photo test, be aware that animals are usually remarkably smaller than human beings. Animals might be below the PIR sensor detection range and not be captured.

10. Light conditions
    Avoid direct backlight when mounting the camera. The lens should not point directly into the sun and camera should not be placed in shadow.

11. Weather protection
    Although the camera is weatherproof and well-suited for outdoor use (dust and jet water protected according to IP66 protection class) we recommend mounting the camera in a secured place not facing the weather exposed side. Prevent the camera from driving rain and constant exposure to sunlight. After a long period of humidity caused by rain or fog, the camera should be placed in a dry area for a few days.

OPTIONAL ACCESSORIES

1. Optional mounting accessories
   Our optional accessories such as the patented DÖRR holding fixture in combination with the DÖRR universal adapter are designed for fast and easy mounting of the camera at a tree, wall or other objects. The camera clicks into the holding fixture and is firmly held in place. The camera can be removed easily for a quick change of place of action. The ball head ensure a flexible direction of the camera. The fixture is rotatable by 360° and swivels up to 30° in all directions:

DISPOSAL, CE MARKING

DISPOSAL OF BATTERY/ACCUMULATOR
Batteries and rechargeable batteries are marked with the symbol of a crossed- out waste bin. This symbol indicates that empty batteries or rechargeable batteries that can no longer be recharged must not be disposed of in household waste. Old batteries may contain harmful substances that can cause damage to health and the environment. As the end user, you are legally obliged to return used batteries (under German battery law, Section 11 Act Revising the Law of Waste-Related Product Responsibility for Batteries and Accumulators). You can return batteries free of charge after use at the point of sale or in your immediate vicinity (e.g. at municipal collection points or in shops). You can also return batteries to the seller by post.

WEEE INFORMATION

The WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Directive, which came into force as European law on 13 February 2003, led to comprehensive changes in the disposal of discarded electrical equipment. The primary purpose of this directive is to prevent e-waste while promoting reuse, recycling and other forms of reprocessing in order to reduce waste. The WEEE logo (dustbin) shown on the product and on the packaging indicates that the product must not be disposed of in normal household waste. You are responsible for delivering all discarded electrical and electronic equipment to appropriate collection points. Sorting waste for separate collection and sensible recycling of packaging waste helps to use natural resources more sparingly. Furthermore, e-waste re-cycling is a contribution to preserving our environment and thus also people‘s health. Further information on the disposal of electrical and electronic equipment, recycling and collection points can be obtained from local authorities, waste disposal companies, specialist retailers and the manufacturer of the device.

DISPOSAL OF THE PACKAGING
Dispose of the packaging by type. Give cardboard to the waste paper, foils to the collection of recyclables.

CONFORMITY WITH ROHS
This product complies with the European RoHS Directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment and variations thereof.

CE MARK
The imprinted CE mark complies with the applicable EU standards and indicates that the device meets the requirements of all EU directives applicable to this product.
