9. MOUNTING AND POSITIONING
9.1. MOUNTING
After you've set up the camera's parameters to your personal
preferences at home, you're ready to take it outside and the
camera is in the
SURVEILLANCE
mode. When setting up
the camera for scouting game or other outdoor applications,
you must be sure to mount it in place correctly and securely.
We recommend mounting the camera on a sturdy tree with a
diameter of about 6in. (15cm). To get the optimal picture
quality, the tree should be about 16-17ft. (5m) away from the
place to be monitored, with the camera placed at a height of
2.5-3.5ft. (0.75-1m). Also, keep in mind that you will get the
best results at night when the subject is within the ideal flash
range, no farther than 100ft. (30m) and no closer than 10ft.
(3m) from the camera.
There are two ways to mount the camera: using the provided
adjustable web belt, or the tripod socket.
Using the adjustable strap
: illustrates using the strap on the

.
Push one end of the strap through the two brackets on
the back of the camera
.
Thread the end of the strap through the
buckle. Fasten the strap securely around the tree trunk by
pulling the end of the strap firmly so there is no slack left
(

Using the tripod socket

socket at the bottom end to enable mounting on a tripod or
other mounting accessories with a standard
