Step 4Set up the hardware

Set up the hardware
Plug your camera in, and adjust things so that the "preview" function in Dorgem shows you the scene you want to capture.

If you want to capture a flower opening, for example, you will need to find a cable large enough to bridge the distance between the farthest out you can get your computer to go, and the nearest in you can bring your flowering plant in. If you go for a wireless camera it might be really neat.

Focus well. Ensure that lights will be sufficient, and that nobody is going to trip over your cables (or steal them).

The screenshot shows Dorgem being set up to store files with the filename safe seconds tag - '%g'. This will result in a filename unique for a given time of day.
