MOUNTING and POSITIONING the WIRELESS
Trophy Cam HD
Mounting
After you’ve set up the camera’s parameters to your personal preferences,
you’re ready to take it outside and slide the power switch to “ON”. When
setting up the WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD for scouting game or other outdoor
applications, you must be sure to mount it in place correctly and securely. We
recommend mounting the WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD on a sturdy tree with
a diameter of about 6 in. (15cm). To get the optimal picture quality, the tree
should be about 16-17 ft. (5 meters) away from the place to be monitored,
with the camera placed at a height of 5-6.5 ft. (1.5~2 m). Also, keep in mind
that you will get the best results at night when the subject is within the ideal
flash range, no farther than 60’ (19m) and no closer than 10’ (3m) from the
camera.
There are two ways to mount the WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD: using the
provided adjustable web belt, or the tripod socket.
• Using the adjustable web belt: Fig. 5
illustrates using the web belt on
the WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD. Push one end of the belt through the
two brackets on the back of the WIRELESS Trophy Cam HD. Thread the
end of the strap through the buckle. Fasten the belt securely around the
tree trunk by pulling the end of the strap firmly so there is no slack left.
Note: it is not possible to use a cable lock (in the upper part of the bracket)
and the web belt at the same time.
• Using the tripod socket : The camera is equipped with a socket at
the bottom end (see pg. 9) to enable mounting on a tripod or other
mounting accessories with a standard1/4-20 thread.
