The Cuddeback Capture IR is a digital camera designed for use in photographing animals in an outdoor environment. You mount the camera to a tree, leaving the device to snap a picture when its infrared detector is triggered. The Capture IR is capable of taking 5 megapixel color images during the day or 1.3 megapixel infrared pictures at night. The camera stores its images on a removable SD memory card; you can view the saved images on a home computer or on a separate viewing device offered by Cuddeback.

Insert the D-cell batteries into the two battery bays, located near the left and right edges of the front panel.
2. Examine the LCD display, located above the control switch. Wait for the LCD display to go blank before proceeding. Find the SD card slot, located to the right of the control switch. Insert the SD memory card into the SD card slot.
