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 (18 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 you 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:
• OnthecolorLCDdisplaymodel(119577C),all the available settings
for the currently displayed parameter are shown on one screen, with a
checkmark next to the current setting (Fig. 4a). To change the setting, first
use the UP/DOWN keys to highlight (select) the new setting you want
(Fig. 4b), then press OK to “Execute” the actual change to the selected
