1 Introduction

1.1 General Description

The Bushnell Trophy Cam is a digital scouting camera. It can be trigged

by any movement of live animals in a location, detected by a highly

sensitive Passive Infra-Red (PIR) motion sensor, and then take high

quality pictures (up to 5MP still photos), or video clips.

The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM consumes very little power (less than

300μA) in a stand-by (surveillance) state. This means it can have up to

six months stand-by operation time when the device is powered by

eight AA alkaline batteries, and up to twelve months utilizing lithium

AA batteries. Once motion in the monitored area is detected, the digital

camera unit will be triggered at once (typically within one second)

and then automatically take pictures or videos according to previously

programmed settings. The TROPHY CAM is equipped with built-in

infrared LEDs that function as a ash, so that it deliver clear images or

videos (in black & white) even in the dark, and it can take color pictures

or videos under sucient daylight. The device is designed for outdoor

use and is resistant against water and snow.

1.2 Application

The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM can be used as a trail camera for hunting or

scouting. It can also be used as a surveillance device.

1.3 Parts

The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM has the following interfaces: USB port, SD

card slot, TV Out, and external DC power in. Fig. 1 shows the front view of

1.4 Saving Images or Videos

The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM uses a standard SD (Secure Digital) memory

card to save images (in .jpg format) and videos (in .avi format). Before

inserting the SD card into the card slot by opening the front cover, please

make sure that the write-protect switch on the side of the card is “o”

(NOT in the “Lock” position). SD cards up to a maximum 2GB capacity are

supported. The following describes how to insert and remove the SD-

card:

• When inserting the SD-card, please open the front cover, and then

insert the SD-card into the card slot with its marked side upwards.

The “click” sound of the card indicates that the card is connected

successfully. If the wrong side of the card is facing up, you will not be

able to insert it without force-there is only one correct way to insert

cards.

• To take out the SD-card, just gently push in the card (do not try to

pull it out without pushing in rst). The card is released from the slot

when you hear the click.

2 Cautions

• The working voltage of the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM is 6V. You can

provide it with 4 or 8 AA batteries, or use an external 6V DC power supply

(positive “tip” (inside) polarity).

• Please insert batteries as indicated, with the correct polarity positions.

• Please disable the write-protect before inserting the SD-card (make sure

the card’s protect switch is not in the “Lock” position).

• The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM has no internal memory for images or

videos. Thus please insert a SD-card (with the camera’s power OFF) before

testing. Otherwise, the camera can’t save images or videos. If no SD-card

is inserted or the write-protect of the card is not disabled, the camera will

shut down automatically after a long beep.

WARNING

Be sure the camera’s power is switched OFF before inserting or removing

SD cards or batteries.

Trophy 119405+119415 Trail Cams-1LIM-rev2.indd 5 3/11/2009 9:42:09 AM

• It is recommended to format the SD-card with the BUSHNELL TROPHY

CAM before using it for the rst time.

• Don’t insert or take out the SD-card when the power switch is in the

ON position.

• The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM will be in USB mode when connected to a

USB port of a computer. In this case the SD-card functions as a removable

disk, even if the POWER switch is OFF.

• Turning the power switch to SETUP will force the BUSHNELL TROPHY

CAM into SETUP mode, otherwise, the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM enters

into the ON mode automatically when switched to the “ON”position.

• In the setup mode the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM will shut down

automatically after 3.5 minutes if no key is pressed. Please turn on the

power again if you want to continue to work with the keyboard.

Please be sure that no power interruption occurs during a rmware

upgrade, otherwise the upgrade process could fail. If any fault occurs

after improper upgrading process and the camera stops functioning

properly, please return the device for repair.

3 Basic Operation

If you are not familiar with the operation of the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM,

the following instructions help you get a quick overview. Before doing

any operation, please make sure you have correctly loaded batteries into

the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM and plugged the SD-card into the card slot.

If the SD-card is not installed correctly or its write-protect is enabled, the

device will give an alarm with a long beep and then turn o automatically.

The following gives you detailed instructions for operating the TROPHY

CAM.

3.1 Loading Batteries

First, you will need to load the TROPHY CAM with batteries. In fact, there

are two methods to supply power for the device: one is to use eight

AA batteries and the other is to use an external DC power supply. It is

recommended to use eight new alkaline or lithium AA batteries. Internally

the batteries are divided into two paralleled groups; each group contains

2 Cautions (continued)

Trophy 119405+119415 Trail Cams-1LIM-rev2.indd 6 3/11/2009 9:42:09 AM

four batteries and can supply power for the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM

alone (with shorter battery life time). The device has eight battery slots,

as shown in Fig. 4. Slot 1 ,2, 3 and 4 form one group, while slots 5, 6, 7 and

8 form the other group.

Rechargeable batteries can also be used, but they might have shorter life

span due to their lower eciency with the time and low temperature.

Hence, it is recommended to use high performance lithium or alkaline

AA batteries or a lead-acid external cell with 6V output (for extended use

in winter).

3.2 Connection of External Power

Optionally you can connect an external 6V DC power source to the

BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM if no batteries are available. It is recommended

to use a power source with a current capability bigger than 1000mA.

However, under sucient daylight at day the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM

can work with much less current (>400mA). Please use the power source

cable (Optional) to connect the external DC power source and insert

it into the power jack of the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM, be sure that the

polarity is correct.

If both external power source and batteries are connected, the BUSHNELL

TROPHY CAM will be powered by the external power source.

For weak batteries the low-battery indication (blue LED) will light,

indicating the batteries should be changed.

3.3 Inserting the SD Card

Next, insert an SD-card into the card slot. Please refer to 1.4 for detailed

instructions.

3.4 Powering on and Entering into the ON (Live) Mode

Now you can switch on the power after inserted the SD-card. The

BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM has three basic operation modes:

• OFF mode: Power switch at OFF position.

• ON mode: Power switch at ON position and the LCD screen is o.

• SETUP mode: Power switch at SETUP position and the LCD screen

is on.

3.1 Loading Batteries (continued)

Trophy 119405+119415 Trail Cams-1LIM-rev2.indd 7 3/11/2009 9:42:09 AM

In the above three modes the OFF mode is the specied safe mode when

any actions must be taken, e.g., replacing the SD-card or batteries, or

transporting the device.

Entering into the ON (Live) mode: After turning on the BUSHNELL TROPHY

CAM , it will enter into the ON mode. The motion indication LED (red) will

blink for about 10s. This time interval is for you to make the BUSHNELL

TROPHY CAM ready for operation, e.g., to close the front cover and to

lock it. After entering into the ON mode, no manual controls are needed

or possible. The BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM will take pictures or videos

automatically according to the previous programmed settings, when

activity is detected in the monitoring region.

If the device was previously in the SETUP mode, you just need to slide the

switch to the ON position.

3.5 Activating the LCD screen and Entering into the SETUP Mode

Entering into the Setup (Test) mode: Anytime in the SETUP mode,

the SETUP mode is activated by moving the slide switch to the SETUP

position (If a picture or a video is just being taken, this action will be

nished rst).

Under the Setup mode you can change the settings of the BUSHNELL

TROPHY CAM manually or set operational parameters with the help of

the built-in LCD or an external TV monitor.

3.6 Manual Capture

Under the SETUP mode, you just need to aim at the object, and then press

the SHOT key. A few seconds later, you’ll get a picture saved in the SD-

card. The number of pictures and video clips at the bottom of the LCD

will increase by one.

3.7 Default Settings and Live Monitoring

When the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM leaves the factory, most parameters

are set as default. Please refer to table 1.

3.4 Powering on and Entering into the ON (Live) Mode (continued)

Trophy 119405+119415 Trail Cams-1LIM-rev2.indd 8 3/11/2009 9:42:09 AM

In the ON (Live) mode the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM is ready for motion

detection. After having entered the ON mode, the BUSHNELL TROPHY

CAM will take pictures or videos automatically according to previous

settings when it is triggered by detection of activity. The pictures or

videos are saved on the SD-card. Every picture or video has its own le

name.

Before entering into the ON mode please pay attention to the following:

(1) The polarities of the power are correct and the power is

sucient.

(2) The SD-card has sucient space and its write-protection is

disabled.

(3) Power switch at ON position.

(4) Avoiding temperature and motion disturbances in front of the

device such as aiming at a heat source or obstructions from tree

branches or brush.

(5) The height away from ground for placing the device should vary

with the object size appropriately. In general, 3 to 6 feet is preferred.

3.8 Reviewing Pictures or Videos

There are two ways to review pictures or videos captured:

(1) Use a computer (or a SD-card viewer with a USB port)

(2) Use a TV monitor (or a SD-card viewer with a TV-in jack)

To use a PC: When using a PC to view images (or video clips), rst

connect the device to the PC with a USB extension cable. And then run a

commercial program with an image browser, or an image browser built

in the operating system to view images saved in the SD-card under the

directory of \DCIM\100EK113.

To use a TV: Connect a TV monitor with the BUSHNELL TROPHY CAM to

review by TV. Next enter into the SETUP mode. The last picture will be

shown on the TV monitor after pressing the OK key. Press the UP key for

the previous picture and the DOWN key for the next one. The index of the

picture and the total number is shown on the monitor when reviewing. At

any time pressing the OK key again will return to the Setup mode.

3.9 Powering O

Just put the power switch on the OFF position when you don’t need to

use it. Please note that even in the OFF mode the BUSHNELL TROPHY

CAM still consumes power at a low level. Therefore, be sure to take the

batteries out of the battery compartment if the device will not be used

for a long time.

4 Advanced Operation

After you’re familiar with the basic operations of the BUSHNELL

TROPHY CAM, you are now ready for advanced operations. In principle,

the advanced operations in this chapter are very similar to the basic

operations, only that the options and parameters of the BUSHNELL

TROPHY CAM are explained in more detail.

4.1 Parameters Setting and Operations

In order to change a parameter setting you must enter into the SETUP

mode. Parameter setting starts with pressing the MENU key in the SETUP
