Operation
1. When you receive your Digital Camera Battery it can be used right out of the box. Each Digital
Camera Battery is fully tested at the factory. Each unit is completely charged and then discharged
through each connector. Units are charged before they are packaged. However, if the unit has been
exposed to extreme heat or has been on the shelf for some time, charging will be required. If this is
the case, plug the charger into the Digital Camera Battery and charge for up to 12 hours. Charging is
complete when the unit is warm to the touch. Always remove the Digital Camera Battery from any
cases when charging to prevent overheating. Always unplug the charger from the AC outlet when not
in use.
2. After connecting the shoulder strap, mounting brackets, or belt clip, connect the cables to be used.
Power the digital camera battery on. When the GREEN L.E.D. comes on you may turn on the
equipment attached. Power is not available for a moment when the Digital Camera Battery is first
turned on. This allows the computer to perform a power up test and prevents overheating should
serious physical damage occur to the Digital Camera Battery.
3. When the YELLOW L.E.D. comes on it is recommended that the pack be recharged at this time.
Digital camera cables will continue to operate if they are below 8.5 volts. Some high voltage step-up
cables will shut down to allow the camera power for proper shutdown.
4. When the RED L.E.D. comes on, shut everything down, you have very little power remaining. If
your equipment has internal batteries, just swap out the Digital Camera Battery or use the internal
batteries as a backup. It is always a good idea to have a complete set of backup equipment.
5. When the RED L.E.D. Blinks, switch to another Digital Camera Battery. You can leave the discharged
pack on. The Blinking RED L.E.D. will remind you to charge that pack at a later time. If the pack will
not be charged within 8 hours, turn the unit off to prevent deep discharge.
6. Do not rely on the recycle time of the flash to determine charge level of the Digital Camera Battery
as the power output is constant from start to finish. This consistent regulated power is one of the
Digital Camera Battery’s features no other battery pack on the market can match.
7. Do not expose the Digital Camera Battery to physical forces in excess of 100 G’s. While we advise
against dropping any equipment on the ground, accidents do happen, the padded carrying case will
help reduce the chance of damage in the event you drop your Digital Camera Battery.
