AThe Clock Battery

The camera clock is powered by an independent, rechargeable power source, which is charged as necessary when the main battery is installed or the camera is powered by an optional EH-5a or EH-5 AC adapter (pg. 385). Two days of charging will power the clock for about three months. If the Bicon flashes in the control panel, the clock battery is exhausted and the clock has been reset. Set the clock to the correct time and date.

AThe Camera Clock

The camera clock is less accurate than most watches and household clocks. Check the clock regularly against more accurate time pieces and reset as necessary.

AGPS Units (pg. 213)

If a GPS unit (pg. 389) is connected, the camera clock will be set to the time and date provided by the GPS unit (pg. 216).
