Operating Your Trail Camera - Minox DTC 1200 Mode D'emploi

External power supply
In addition to battery operation, the trail camera can also be
permanently powered by an external power adapter (not in-
cluded). You need a mains adapter with 6 V and at least 2 A,
which has a barrel plug with an outer diameter of 4 mm and an
inner diameter of 1.5 mm (positive pole inside, negative pole
outside). Rechargeable batteries cannot be charged in the trail
camera using an external power supply. When connecting the
trail camera to an external power supply, the IP54 protection
cannot be ensured.
Open the protection cap of the 6 V DC port. (12)
Connect the external power adapter to the 6 V DC port.

Fastening the mounting strap
Select a location to mount the trail camera where it is not
exposed to direct sunlight.
Make sure that there are no branches within the effective
range of the sensor.
Moving branches can, under certain circumstances, trigger
unwanted recordings.
Use the mounting strap to attach the trail camera to a tree
or other object.
Feed the strap through the mounting brackets.
Attach the trail camera e.g. to a tree and thread the strap
through the buckle.
Tighten the strap until the camera has a firm hold, and then
clamp the strap with the buckle.
Pull up on the tab of the buckle to release the mounting
strap.
