PIR [Passive Infrared] Sensor: Setting the
responsivity of the IR Sensor
Your MINOX DTC 1100 allows you the possibility of
adjusting the responsivity of the IR sensor at three lev-
els – low, normal, and high. This function is effective,
for instance, for reducing the possibility of an inadver-
tent activation of the camera through movements of
non-relevant objects, such as the branches and grass.
In order to set the responsivity of the IR sensor to your
DRC 1100, please go to the “Main Menu” by pressing
menu button (15) and select the menu option
“PIR-Sensor”. This is located under “Camera Set-
tings”. You can access the submenu by pressing the
OK button (11) or the right arrow key (11). Here you
can choose between the “low”, “normal”, and “high”
by pressing the Up/Down arrow keys (11). To save the
settings press the OK button (11) and you will return
to the menu option “Camera Settings”. You can return
to the previous menu selection without changing the
settings by pressing the left arrow key (11).
Note: The detection range of the IR sensor depends
on external factors,such as the temperature in the
camera environment. For rough orientation to attain
optimal setting, we recommend the following ad-
justments for the IR sensor:
High (high responsivity): generally in summer time
or when the ambient air temperature is close to the
body temperature of the detected object.
Normal (mid-level responsivity): generally at average
spring or fall temperatures
Low (low-level responsivity): generally during
winter or at average winter temperatures

tures only if the movement sensor is activated through

button (15) and select the menu option “Power-on
time”. This is located under “Camera Settings”. Press
