The Off, On, And Setup Modes - Bushnell TROPHY CAM HD ESSENTIAL 119736C Instruction Manual

• To take out the SD card, just gently push in the card (do not try to pull it out
without pushing in first). The card is released from the slot and ready to be
removed when you hear the click. Be sure the camera's power is switched
OFF before inserting or removing SD cards or batteries.
USING THE Trophy Cam HD
Once you've prepared your Trophy Cam HD 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 HD 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 in the OFF mode the Trophy Cam
HD still consumes power at a very low level. Therefore, it's a good idea to take
the batteries out of the battery compartment if the camera will not be used for a
long time.
