INSTALLING THE BATTERIES AND SD CARD
Before you begin learning how to use your
Trophy Cam HD Essential E3
,
you will first need to install a set of batteries and insert an SD card. Although
that may only take you a minute, there are some important notes about both
batteries and SD cards you should be aware of, so please take the time to
read the following directions and cautions
:
Loading Batteries
After opening the latch on the right side of the
Trophy Cam HD Essential
E3,
you will see that
the
Trophy Cam HD Essential E3
has eight battery
slots. A full set of eight batteries must be installed for the camera to operate.
Be sure to insert each battery with correct polarity (negative or “flat” end
against the long spring of each battery slot).
Bushnell recommends using eight new lithium
AA (Energizer
®
brand) or alkaline AA batteries.
NiMh Rechargeable batteries can also be
used, but they might have a shorter life span
due to their reduced efficiency over time and
at low temperature.
Inserting the SD Card
The
Trophy Cam HD Essential E3
has 64MB internal memory, which
can hold about 50 photos (@ 4K resolution). This is handy for testing and
getting familiar with the camera, but you will no doubt want to leave the
camera unattended for longer than a day or two, so using an SD card is
recommended. Insert the SD card (with the camera’s power switch in the
OFF
position) before beginning to operate the camera. Don’t insert or
remove the SD card when the power switch is in the
ON
position.
