Chapter 2 Fitting and

Connections

Using Battery Packs

Always fully charge a battery pack before using it.

Notes

Be careful that other metal objects do not come in contact with the metal parts of the battery pack, as this could cause a short.

Do not leave the battery pack in the camera if it is not going to be used for a long time.

If the battery pack is recharged after use while still hot, it may not be possible to obtain a full charge.

Fitting a battery pack (NP-1B)

Open the lid of the battery case, insert a fully-charged battery pack, and close the lid.

Battery low indications

When the voltage of the supply to the camera head lowers to or below 11.0 V, the battery voltage indication appears in the viewfinder. At this time, the BATT indicator in the viewfinder flashes when operating with the DSR-1/1P or PVV-3/3P.

If you continue using the camera head, the BATT indicator lights up.

When the battery pack is low, replace it with a fully- charged battery pack.

Camera Adaptor Power Supply

The camera adaptor automatically operates on power supplied to the VTR/CCU/CMA connector from the portable VTR, CCU-M7/M7P Camera Control Unit, CMA-8A/8ACE AC Adaptor or other connected device.

Note

Before use, check that the device connected to the VTR/CCU/CMA connector is able to provide the power required by the camera.

If it is not able to provide the necessary power, or when it is necessary to prolong the operating time, use the camera with a separate power supply.
