Operate Bushnell Trail Cameras

Hunters and wildlife photographers commonly use Bushnell trail cameras to capture wildlife images.


Designed for surveillance or scouting, Bushnell trail cameras give you the versatility to take pictures and video without having to physically be there to capture the image. Bushnell designs a variety of trail cameras with different features and capabilities, but they all follow the same basic operating instructions. After a proper setup, adjust the settings to your personal preference to monitor wildlife movement or capture surveillance images.


Instructions


1. Open the two latches on the right side of the Bushnell trail camera to expose the battery slots.


2. Insert four to eight AA batteries into the appropriate slots. Bushnell suggests using eight lithium batteries for extended battery life.


3. Insert the memory card with the label side facing upward into the card slot until you hear a "click." The memory card slot is located on the bottom of the Bushnell trail camera.


4. Attach the Bushnell trail camera to a tree or post in your desired location using the cable lock, padlock and tree bracket. Make sure the camera is positioned and pointed to an open area where it can detect movement.


5. Move the power switch to the top, or "On," position. The camera will enter the "On" mode.


6. Use the toggle switch system for the initial setup and to make changes to the settings.


7. Follow the initial setup instructions by setting the date, time and camera imaging settings. This allows your Bushnell trail camera to stamp the date and time on every picture.


8. Save any changes made on the menu setup of the camera. The Bushnell trail camera will return to any default settings if you don't save the changes.


9. Set the delay between images. Adjust the delay based on the wildlife activity in your area.
