Plugging in Power

Getting started with your Blackmagic Video Assist is as simple as plugging in power,
connecting your video source, plugging in your audio and inserting an SD card.
To supply power, plug in the supplied power
adapter to your Video Assist's power input on
the right side panel.
With external power connected, you can also
charge two LP-E6 type Lithium-Ion batteries,
which can be mounted to battery slots 1 and
2 on the back panel. To plug an LP-E6 type
battery into your Video Assist, gently press the
battery against the inside top edge of the
battery slot, then slide the battery down against
the back panel until you feel it click and lock
into place. Press the battery release button on the top panel to remove a battery. For more
information on battery use and how to monitor the battery power remaining, refer to the
'settings' section in this manual.
To power on the unit, press the power button on the right side panel. Press and hold to
power off.
Connect external power to the
+12V power input. Press the
power button to turn the unit on.
