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 (12-13 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 have 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 models with a color viewer, all the available settings for the currently
displayed parameter are shown on one screen, with a checkmark next
