9-30 Reference — DCS 465 Camera Back
Awake/Sleep State of the DCS 465
Camera Back
The awake/sleep state of the KODAK camera back depends on the mode
of camera back operation as follows.
If the DCS 465 Camera Back is operated without the AC battery
charger/adapter and without being connected to a computer, the
camera back is asleep until you wake it. (You wake the camera back
by pressing the record button. On an electrically tripped camera you
can also briefly tap the button on the end of your shutter release cable
to wake the camera back.) Once awake, if there is no activity, the
camera back automatically sleeps after about five seconds to preserve
the battery. If the camera back is saving an image to a PCMCIA card,
the camera back remains awake until the image is saved.
The camera back is continuously awake when operated while con-
nected to the AC battery charger/adapter; once the batteries are fully
charged the adapter switches automatically to a slow trickle charge. If
the camera back is saving an image to a PCMCIA card when the
adapter is disconnected, the camera back remains awake until the
image is saved.
The camera back is also continuously awake when operated while
connected to a computer that is on. If the camera back is saving an
image to a PCMCIA card when the computer is turned off, the camera
back remains awake until the image is saved.
