USING THE TROPHY CAM
Once you’ve prepared your Trophy Cam by properly installing batteries
and an SD card, you could simply take it outside, strap it to a tree, switch
it on and leave-and you might get some great photos that are exactly
what you wanted. However, we highly recommend that you first spend
some additional time indoors with this manual and your camera until you
know a bit more about what the 3-way switch and those control keys do.
If nothing else, you’ll probably want to at least set the date and time so
the camera will imprint them (or not-it’s your option) on your photos as
they are taken, learn how to set the camera to shoot video clips instead of
still photos if you like, and read some tips about mounting it on a tree.
THE OFF, ON, AND SETUP MODES
The Trophy Cam has three basic operational modes:
•
OFF mode: Power switch in the OFF position.
•
ON mode: Power switch in the ON position (LCD screen is off.)
•
SETUP mode: Power switch at SETUP position (LCD screen is on).
OFF Mode
The OFF mode is the “safe” mode when any actions must be taken, e.g.,
replacing the SD card or batteries, or transporting the device. You will also
use OFF mode if you connect the camera to a computer’s USB port later
to download your photos/videos. And of course, when you are storing
or not using the camera, you will switch it to OFF. Please note that even
WARNING
Be sure the camera’s power is switched OFF
before inserting or removing SD cards or batteries.
