INTRODUCTION

About the TROPHY CAM

The Bushnell Trophy Cam is a digital scouting camera. It can be triggered

by any movement of game in a location, detected by a highly sensitive

Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor, and then take high quality pictures

(up to 5MP still photos), or video clips.

The Trophy Cam consumes very little power (less than 300μA) in a stand-

by (surveillance) state.This means it can deliver up to six months stand-by

operation time when the device is powered by eight AA alkaline batteries,

and up to twelve months utilizing lithium AA batteries. Once motion in

the monitored area is detected, the digital camera unit will be triggered

at once (typically within one second) and then automatically take photos

or videos according to previously programmed settings. The Trophy Cam

is equipped with built-in infrared LEDs that function as a ash, so that it

delivers clear photos or videos (in black & white) even in the dark, and it

can take color photos or videos under sucient daylight.The Trophy Cam

is designed for outdoor use and is resistant against water and snow.

Applications

The Trophy Cam can be used as a trail camera for hunting or scouting

game. It is also suitable for surveillance usage.

PARTS and CONTROLS

The Trophy Cam provides the following connections for external devices:

USB port, SD card slot, TV Out, and external DC power in (Fig. 1).

A 3-way power switch is used to select the main operating modes: OFF,

SETUP, and ON (Fig. 2).

A control key interface with six keys is primarily used in SETUP mode to

select operational functions and parameters. As shown in Fig. 2, these

keys are: UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, OK and MENU. Four of the keys can

also perform a second function (shortcut operations in SETUP mode) in

addition to their main function: The DOWN key can be used to set the

camera to Photo mode (still camera icon), and the UP key can set the

camera to Video mode (movie camera icon). The RIGHT key also serves

as the manual shutter (“SHOT”) button of the camera and the OK key

switches the camera to the Playback (“REPLAY”) mode. These secondary

functions are indicated by icons or text above the key as shown in Fig. 2.

INSTALLING THE BATTERIES and SD CARD

Before you begin learning how to use your Trophy Cam, you will rst

need to install a set of batteries and insert an SD card. Although that

may only take you a minute, there are some important notes about both

batteries and SD cards you should be aware of, so please take the time to

read the following directions and cautions:

Loading Batteries

After opening the two latches on the right side

of the Trophy Cam, you will see that the Trophy

Cam has eight battery slots. Starting at the top

of the battery compartment, slots 1, 2, 3 and 4

form one group, while slots 5, 6, 7 and 8 form the

other group, each providing 6 volts in parallel.

For maximum battery life, you should install a

full set of eight batteries. The Trophy Cam may

also be operated by just four batteries installed

in the top group only (see right), starting at slot

1. Battery life will be shorter with 4 batteries, but

the camera will operate normally. Whether you

use 4 or 8, be sure to insert each battery with correct polarity (negative or

“at” end against the long spring of each battery slot).

Bushnell recommends using eight new lithium AA (Energizer® brand)

or alkaline AA batteries. NiMh Rechargeable batteries can also be used,

but they might have a shorter life span due to their reduced eciency

over time and at low temperature. It is also possible to use a lead-acid

external battery cell with 6V output or suitable AC adapter-see below for

more details.

Using an External Power Source (optional, user provided)

Optionally, you can connect an external 6V DC power source to the“DC In”

jack at the bottom of the Trophy Cam. It is recommended to use a power

source with a current output greater than 1000mA. However, during

bright daytime operation when no ash is required, the Trophy Cam

can function with much less current (>400mA). Please use a compatible

power source cable (not provided) to connect the external DC power

source with the power input jack of the Trophy Cam, making sure that

the polarity is correct. Note: The power connector is a 4.0x1.7mm coaxial

DC power plug with positive “tip” (inside pin) polarity (Radio Shack P/N

274-1532 or equivalent).

If both an external power source is connected and batteries are installed,

the Trophy Cam will be powered by the external power source.

When the batteries become weak, the low-battery indicator LED will glow

blue, indicating the batteries should be changed (pg 6, “Front View”).

Inserting the SD Card

The Trophy Cams have 32MB internal memory, which can hold only

about 20 photos (@ 5MP resolution). This is handy for testing and getting

familiar with the camera, but you will no doubt want to leave the camera

unattended for longer than a day, so using an SD card is recommended.

Insert the SD card (with the camera’s power switch in the OFF position)

before beginning to operate the camera. Don’t insert or remove the SD

card when the power switch is in the ON position.

The Trophy Cam uses a standard SD (Secure Digital) memory card to save

photos (in .jpg format) and/or videos (in .asf format). SD and SDHC (High

Capacity) cards up to a maximum 4 GB capacity are supported. Before

inserting the SD card into the card slot after

opening the camera’s front cover, please make

sure that the write-protect switch on the side of

the card is “o” (NOT in the “Lock” position). The

following describes how to insert and remove

the SD card:

• Insert the SD card into the card slot with its label side upwards (see

above). A “click” sound indicates that the card is installed successfully.

If the wrong side of the card is facing up, you will not be able to insert

it without force-there is only one correct way to insert cards. If the

SD card is not installed correctly, the device will not display an SD

card icon on the LCD in SETUP mode (the SD card icon displayed after

switching to SETUP mode will have a “lock” symbol inside it in it if the card

is locked). Formatting the SD card by using the Trophy Cam’s “Format”

parameter before using it for the rst time is recommended, especially

when a card has been used in other devices (see “Changing Menu

Parameter Settings” for details).

• To take out the SD card, just gently push in the card (do not try to pull

it out without pushing in rst). The card is released from the slot and

ready to be removed when you hear the click.

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 rst 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 o.)

• 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

WARNING

Be sure the camera’s power is switched OFF

before inserting or removing SD cards or batteries.

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 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. 5, “Front View”) will blink red for about 10 seconds. This

interval allows time for you to close the Trophy Cam’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 eect). The Trophy

Cam 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 rst to change one or more settings, then

move the switch to ON after you have nished doing so.

SETUP Mode

In the SETUP mode you can check and change the settings of the Trophy

Cam with the help of its built-in LCD (or a monitor connected to the TV out

jack). 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 switch to the SETUP position will turn on the LCD

display, and you will see an information screen that shows how many

images have been taken, the battery level, camera or video mode, etc

(see Fig. 3 below).

NOTE: always move the power switch from OFF to SETUP mode. It

is possible that the camera could lockup if it is switched from ON to

SETUP mode. If this occurs, simply move the switch to OFF and then

push it up to SETUP again.
