OPERATION AS DC CAMERA SUPPLY FROM MAINS

Each PowerCharger model can operate cameras and camcorders using the four pin camera output connector located at the back of the PowerCharger. To power the camera, attach one end of the XLR4 accessory cable (available separately) to the PowerCharger. Attach the other end to the “DC in” four pin XLR on the camera/camcorder. Disconnect the charge module accessory from the PowerCharger. Move the switch located next to the connector to the “CAMERA” position. A message will appear in the PowerCharger LCD:

CAMERA POWER MODE IS ON

BATTERIES NOT CHARGING

The PowerCharger will remember the point at which it left its charge routine for any battery on the charger. When the switch is returned to the “CHARGER” position, the batteries will automatically continue charging where they left off.

During camera operation, with batteries on the PowerCharger, the unit will indicate a flashing GREEN LED for any battery position which is more than 50% charged. Batteries less the 50% charged will have no indication.

Application Note: The 2700 DUAL and QUAD Model PowerChargers have a maximum 70 watts output. It should be noted that, in general, due to camera turn-on surges, operation of zoom lenses and tape ejection mechanisms that the 2700 series PowerChargers should be used on equipment with operating specifications of more than 25 watts.
