MOUNTING AND POSITIONING the TROPHY CAM
Mounting
After you’ve set up the camera’s parameters to your personal preferences
at home or in your truck, you’re ready to take it outside and slide the
power switch to “ON”. When setting up the Trophy Cam for scouting
game or other outdoor applications, you must be sure to mount it in
place correctly and securely. We recommend mounting the Trophy Cam
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 ash range, no farther than 45’ (14m)
and no closer than 10’ (3m) from the camera.
There are two ways to mount the Trophy Cam: using the provided
adjustable web belt, or the tripod socket.
Using the adjustable web belt: Fig. 5 illustrates using the web belt on
the Trophy Cam. Push one end of the belt through the two brackets
on the back of the Trophy Cam. Thread one plastic buckle part onto
each end of the belt. Fasten the belt securely around the tree trunk by
clicking the buckle ends together after tightening the belt so there is
no slack left.
