Using the SETUP Menu to
Change Settings
The main purpose of the SETUP mode is to allow you to change the settings of the camera’s parameters (18 different ones are available!) so your Trophy Cam operates exactly the way you want it to. You will do this by entering the SETUP Menu and pressing the keys below the LCD display, which will show you each parameter and its setting.
Changing Parameter Settings in SETUP Mode
A wide range of options or “parameters” are provided to allow you to set the Trophy Cam to your operational preferences. To change the setting of any parameter you must first switch to the SETUP mode. Once in SETUP mode, pressing the MENU button will allow you to select any parameter and change its setting. The name of the parameter and its current setting will be shown on the LCD. Pressing the RIGHT or LEFT key scrolls to the next or previous parameter (RIGHT key to move on to the next parameter and LEFT key to go back to the previous parameter), and pressing the UP or DOWN key lets you select a different setting for the currently displayed parameter. Once you have selected your preferred new setting for a parameter, press the OK button to save the new setting (actually change it). When you are finished changing the settings of one or more parameters, press MENU again to exit the SETUP menu. MENU can also be pressed anytime you want to cancel changing a parameter’s setting after a new setting has been selected (but OK has not been pressed yet). After setting the parameters to your preferences, be sure to move the switch to ON to begin actually taking photos or videos. No images will be captured if the switch is left in the SETUP position (unless you press the RIGHT/Shot key after exiting the menu)- in fact, the camera will power off automatically after a few seconds with no key pressed.
Color Viewer vs. Standard Display Models
There is a slight difference in how the settings for a parameter are shown between the two different types of Trophy Cam models:
•On the color LCD display model (119477), all the available settings for the currently displayed parameter are shown on one screen, with a checkmark next to the current setting (Fig. 4a). To change the setting, first use the UP/DOWN keys to highlight (select) the new setting you want (Fig. 4b), then press OK to “Execute” the actual change to the selected
