+## Installation
+
+Install the server script with
+
+    $ python setup.py install
+
+and create a new TANGO server `Uca/xyz` with a class named `Camera`.
+
+
+## Usage
+
+Before starting the server, you have to create a new device property `camera`
+which specifies which camera to use. If not set, the `mock` camera will be used
+by default.
+
+Start the device server with
+
+    $ Uca foo
+
+You should be able to manipulate camera attributes like `exposure_time` and the
+like and store frames using a `Start`, `Store`, `Stop` cycle.
+
+```python
+import PyTango
+
+camera = PyTango.DeviceProxy("foo/Camera/mock")
+camera.exposure_time = 0.1
+camera.Start()
+camera.Store('foo.tif')
+camera.Stop()
+```
