Non crossbow question. What does the Blue light mean?

[SniperWolf]

Hey forum I have a question for those who own a bushnell bone collector trophy game camera. I am having the same problem on all three of my cameras and here is my problem:
When I turn the camera on it will take pictures however when I switch it to setup mode to set my settings I get nothing. No display and a blue light turns on. To me the blue light means "it's f•••ed". So what does the blue light mean. And has anyone else had the same problem.
Thanks

Looked online,found a pdf, says blue led means low batteries.

Interesting considering that the batteries are brand new and are energizers.

Are they lithium? They are the only ones I would run in the camera. A little pricy but worth it.

[SniperWolf]

No they are not. I will try them thx. Any other ideas? Much appreciated for the advice.

It means you forgot to switch it to on, you left it in set up. thats what i did.

[SniperWolf]

No when you leave it on set up its a red light. When you switch it to on you get a flashing red light for 30 seconds.

I left mine on setup and when I came back I could see that blue light from way out. When I checked I saw that I forgot to switch it to on from setup. I think the blinking red light is only test for so many sec or min then it goes active.
Internet search says low batteries. I know mine weren't dead or low. I always use lithium batteries

Round here,'a blue light usually means someone is taking a ride in the back of a police cruiser. ......RR

I had a game call that used 8 AA batteries and I tried using re-chargeable AAs. The re-chargeable AAs only put out 1.3VDC while the non-rechargeable AAs put out 1.5VDC. Your batteries are connected in series so that the total voltage is the sum of the # of batteries. The game call needed 12VDC from the 8 batteries but with the re-chargeable AAs I did not have the 12VDC needed. The game call works great with the non-rechargeable AAs. If you have a volt meter you could measure the DC volts across your string of batteries and see if that could be your problem.
