Using Battery Packs
Always fully charge a battery pack before using it.

•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.

Cannot be used with a camera adaptor.
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.

Battery pack charging
Before using a battery pack, charge it as shown in the
following table.
For details of battery charger operation, refer to the
instructions provided with the battery charger to be used.
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.
