Trigger mode

This function allows you to decide the trigger speed
for the DTC 700. When movement is detected, the
camera triggers in less than a second in battery
operation. For this it has to ‚wake up' from the
stand­by mode. If you are using the camera with
an external power source, you can set the DTC 700
so that stand­by mode is never selected. This means
that the camera does not need to ‚wake up' when
there is movement and triggers instantaneously.
Use the Menu button (8) to access the Main Menu
and select „Trigger mode". This is under the first
„Camera settings" tab. Press the OK button (9) or
the right arrow key (10) to access the Sub­menu.
In the Sub­menu you can set the required trigger
mode with the Up/Down arrow keys (10). Select
„Normal" for battery operation (< 1 sec.) and „Po­
wer" for operating with an external power source
(instantaneous). Press the OK button (9) to save
the setting and this will return you to the „Camera
settings" menu item. Use the left arrow key (10)
to return to the higher menu without changing the
settings.
Note: Please use the ‚Power' Trigger mode
only when the camera is connected by a mains
adaptor to the power supply system. In battery
operation this setting will exhaust the batteries
in a very short time.

Illumination

Your DTC 700 cannot access external illumination;
please always select "Internal". Should you nevert­
heless select "External", the flash will remain deac­
tivated even in the dark and you will get only black
pictures at night.
PIR [Passive Infrared] Sensor: Setting the
responsivity of the IR sensor
Your MINOX DTC 700 allows you the possibility of
adjusting the responsivity of the IR sensor at three
levels – low, normal, and high. This function is ef­
fective, for instance, for reducing the possibility of
an inadvertent activation of the camera through
movements of non­relevant objects, such as the
branches and grass. In order to set the responsi­
vity of the IR sensor to your DRC 700, please go
to the "Main Menu" by pressing menu button (8)
