INSTALLING THE ANTENNA AND SIM CARD
Inserting the SIM Card
Purchase and activate a SIM card from your mobile
phone service provider. An SMS/MMS (voice+text)
enabled SIM card is recommended if you have
unlimited text messaging, as it will minimize costs.
You will also have the option to control the camera
remotely via text messages. Select a SIM card that
also supports data (SMTP or SSMTP) if you prefer to
receive images from the camera via email through your data plan. Insert your
activated SIM card in the slot near the top left corner of the display. Always
make sure the PIN Code is deactivated on your SIM card.
Attaching the Antenna
As the wireless antenna is not pre-mounted (for packaging considerations),
you will need to attach it to the camera to enable wireless operation. Simply
screw the threaded base of the antenna onto the socket at the top of the
camera. Make sure it is securely attached, but do not over-tighten it. When not
using the antenna, replace rubber cap to keep out dust and dirt.
USING THE WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD
Once you’ve prepared your WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD 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 WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD 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.)
