SL-6 Power
Remove DC1 and DC2 powering from the Scorpio while using the
SL-6. L-Mount batteries can be left inserted in Scorpio while the SL-6
is being used.
When an SL-6 is attached, the following settings are available:
SL-6 PREFERRED SOURCE Selects whether the NP-1 or DC input
takes priority.
SL-6 DC REF Allows proper power level based on the type of DC
power source used [12 V DC, 14 V Li-ion, 12 V Lead Acid, Full Range]
SL-6 POWER OUTPUTS Selects whether SL-6 power outputs 1-4
and USB charging port are on or off.
When using an external BDS switch to power the entire Scorpio/
SL-6 system, set DC Loss to 'Turn Off' and ensure no NP-1 battery is
connected to the SL-6 and no DC power is connected to the DC-1 or
DC-2 jacks on the Scorpio. Leaving these power sources connected
will cause the Scorpio to auto-reboot after powering down the BDS.
L-Mount batteries can be left inserted in Scorpio and will not cause a
reboot after powering down from an external BDS.
