When purchasing the SIM Card, please ensure that you adhere to the RICA process.
When buying the SIM Card you need to request the service provider to activate the MMS
ability on the Card. You also need to ask the service provider to disable the need for a
PIN to be punched in when activating the SIM Card.
When installing the
Spydercam,
please ensure that the ―False Triggers‖ are kept to a
minimum, since there will be a charge from the cell phone company for every MMS sent.
Because the
Spydercam
works on GPRS technology ALWAYS ensure that you have cell
phone reception at the place where it is installed.
