5-5 Charging the Built-in Battery
The built-in, rechargeable backup battery retains the date and time and the time code data. The built-in battery is constantly being
charge whenever the GY-DV5000 is connected to a power supply, but it gradually discharges while the GY-DV5000 is disconnected
from a power supply. The battery will be fully discharged when the GY-DV5000 is not used for about three months, in which case
the set date and time and time code data are reset. In this case, recharge the built-in battery and then set the date and time and
time code data again.
However, it is possible to use the GY-DV5000 even if the bulit-in battery is discharged but the date and time and time code data
cannot be recorded.
■How to charge
1.
Connect the provided AC adapter AA-P250 to the GY-DV5000 and an AC outlet or mount a charged battery on the GY-DV5000.
2.
Set the POWER switch on the GY-DV5000 to “OFF” or “ON” (charging takes places with the POWER switch set to either of the
positions.)
3.
Leave the equipment in this condition for about 4 hours.
●The built-in battery will remain charged for about 3 months after being charged for about 4 hours.
