3.Make sure that the camera power switch is in the “On” position and not in the “Off” or “Setup” modes.
4.Make sure that you are using a good quality SD card in your camera. Bushnell recommends SanDisk® SD Cards up to 32GB.
5.If the SD card has its write protect switch in the lock position, the camera will not take images.
6.If you have used an SD card in another device before inserting it in your Trophy Cam, you might want to try formatting the card using the “Format” parameter in Setup mode (make sure you have backed up any important files first, as formatting will erase all previous files). In some cases, other devices may change the formatting of the SD card so that it will not work properly with the Trophy Cam.
Camera won’t power up
1.Make sure that you have installed at least 4 batteries (the required minimum #) in the battery compartment, starting at the top, filling
battery spaces
Bushnell recommends using 8 Energizer® Lithium AA batteries in all Trophy Cams.
2.Make sure that the batteries are installed correctly, observing proper polarity. Always place the negative (flat) end of each battery in contact with the spring side of its slot inside the camera.
3.After moving the switch from “Off” to “Setup” or “On”, make sure that the switch is correctly in position to ensure the proper mode (avoid positions “between” two modes).
4.Do not move the switch directly from “On” to
Still Photo and/or Video Quality Problems
1. Night photos or videos appear too dark
a. Check the battery indicator icon to see if battery power is full. The flash will stop operating near the end of the battery life.
b. You will get the best results when the subject is within the ideal flash range, no farther than 45’ (14m) from the camera. Subjects may appear too dark at greater distances.
c. Please note that when the Capture Number parameter is set higher than “1 Photo”, or with very short Interval settings, some images may appear darker than others due to the quick response and rapid retriggering of the camera, allowing less time for the flash to fully recharge before firing again.
