4.6 Photo Burst (number of exposures on each activation)
1. Select thenumber of exposures which are to be made on each activation of
thecamera: 3 Photos, 2 Photos or 1 Photo (3, 2 or 1 exposure) using [►] or [◄].
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue). (Thedefault value is 1 Photo.)
4.7 Video Length (length of video recording)
1. Select how long thevideo recording is to be on each activation of thecamera:
Settings range from 1to 60 s using [►] or [◄].
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue). (Thedefault value is 10 s.)
4.8 Sensitivity (sensitivity of motion detector)
Thegreater thesensitivity selected, theeasier thecamera is activated, e.g. when
thewind moves branches. Thehigher thesetting, themore photos will be taken.
Sensitivity normally decreases as thetemperature rises. If thecamera is to be used at
high temperatures, theHigh sensitivity setting should be selected.
1. Select sensitivity for activation of thecamera. Select thesetting: PIR off (motion
detector deactivated), Normal (normal sensitivity), High (high sensitivity) and
Low (low sensitivity) using [►] or [◄].
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue). (Thedefault value is Normal.)
4.9 PIR Interval (interval until re-activation after detection)
On activation thecamera takes aset number
of still images (or avideo sequence), but if
themotion detector detects movement all
thetime, thecamera will continue to make
exposures of thesame subject in uninterrupted
fashion. There is therefore theoption of
setting atime delay until thenext activation of
thecamera, regardless of whether themotion
detector is activated.
1. Select how long there should be between thelast activation of thecamera and
next re-activation. Settings range from 0sto 60 min using [►] or [◄].
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue). (Thedefault value is 0 s.)

English
4.10 Timer Interval (time lapse function)
Interval-controlled exposure (independently of themotion detector). This function allows
you to take photos at given intervals, e.g. to take aseries of images every 5 minutes.
1. Select how long there should be between exposures. Setting options: Off or
intervals ranging from 5 min to 8 hours using [►] or [◄].
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue). (Thedefault value is Off.)
Note: Remember that this setting must be set at Off, otherwise thecamera’s motion
detector will not be able to activate thecamera except at theset time intervals.
4.11 Timer Switch (switch-off at acertain time of day)
Set thetime of day thecamera is to be active, from 00:00 to 23:59.

and stop.
- Press [OK] to confirm and save
thesetting (or [MENU] to discontinue).
4.12 Flash Range (range of flash function)

Select 8 indoors and 15 outdoors. Try to take afew pictures with different settings
under theworst possible conditions if you are unsure.
1. Press [▲] or [▼] to select 15 or 8 metres.
2. Press [OK] to confirm (or [MENU] to discontinue).
