Avoiding Breaks In Operation Due To Dead Batteries - Sony DVW-707/707P Operation Manual

5-1-4 Avoiding Breaks in Operation Due to Dead
Batteries
If you use both an internal battery pack and an external battery connected
to the DC IN connector at the same time, you can avoid breaks in
operation due to the dead batteries.
When the external battery begins to fail and an internal
battery pack is also used
Remove the DC output cable of the external battery from the DC IN
connector. The power source will switch to the internal battery pack.
When the external battery begins to fail and an internal
battery pack is not used
First load the camcorder with a fully charged internal battery pack, then
remove the DC output cable of the external battery from the DC IN
connector. The power source will switch to the internal battery pack. To
use an external battery again, connect a fully charged external battery to
the DC IN connector before unloading the internal battery pack. The
power source will switch to the external battery.
Continuous operation when operating with only an internal
battery pack
First, connect a fully charged external battery to the DC IN connector,
then change the internal battery.
Notes
• Whenever an internal battery pack is loaded and an external battery is
connected to the DC IN connector, the external battery is always used
as the power source.
• There may be some noise on the video signal at the instant the power
sources are switched.
