The Off, On, And Setup Modes - Bushnell TROPHY 119837C Instruction Manual

THE OFF, ON, AND SETUP MODES

The Trophy Cam HD Essential E3 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 Essential E3 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.
6, "Front View") will blink red for about 10 seconds. This interval allows time
for you to close the Trophy Cam HD Essential E3'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 Essential E3 will take photos or videos automatically (according to its
current parameter settings) when it is triggered by the PIR sensor's detection
of activity in the area it covers.
You can either move the power switch directly from OFF to ON mode, or
stop at the SETUP position first to change one or more settings, then move
the switch to ON after you have finished doing so.
SETUP MODE
In the SETUP mode you can check and change the settings of the Trophy
Cam HD Essential E3 with the help of its built-in LCD These settings,
found in the SETUP Menu, let you change the photo or video resolution,
interval between photos, switch the time imprint on, etc. Moving the power
