USING THE Trophy Cam HD Aggressor
Once you've prepared your Trophy Cam HD Aggressor 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 Aggressor 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 Aggressor 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.
ON MODE
Anytime after the batteries and SD card have been inserted, you can switch
on the camera. When the power switch is moved to the top position, the
camera will enter into the ON (Live) mode. The motion indicator LED (pg.
7, "Front View") will blink red for about 10 seconds. This interval allows time
for you to close the Trophy Cam HD Aggressor's front cover, lock it, and
leave the monitored area. Once in the ON mode, no manual controls are
needed or possible (the control keys have no effect). The Trophy Cam HD
Aggressor will take photos or videos automatically (according to its current
