Before you get too far along with this, understand that the camera you bought also requires a $100 per year membership fee in order to get 250 pictures a month sent to you of everything. If you don't pay that membership fee, it will take pictures and load them on your SD card but they will never send to you because the only thing that will send it to you is a buck. And if that's what you're looking for great, but if you're trying to use it as a trail camera for s security, return it.
