Summary of Contents for Reconyx SC10

  • Page 1 SC10 Solar Charger Copyright: October 2020...
  • Page 2: Getting Started

    Close the unit and tighten the thumb screw to hold the two halves together. Connect the SC10 to the camera by plugging the shielded power cable into the external power jack on the bottom of your cellular camera.
  • Page 3: Warranty

    With the SC10, you can power your cellular camera indefinitely with power from the sun. For cellular users that can mount the SC10 in a spot that gets a few hours of direct sunlight per day, this unit should provide sufficient power to run your cellular camera indefinitely.
  • Page 4 Mounting the SC10 Integrated T-Post (Star Post) Mount The SC10 is designed to sit atop almost any “T-post” style metal fencepost (also works with "Y" and "Star" posts) and can be rotated 360 degrees. Rotate the unit so that it is facing the direction where it will get the most hours of sunlight during the day.
  • Page 5 Note: We do not recommend setting the SC10 on the ground. There are two primary reasons for this: 1) snow, 2) foliage. You don’t want the unit covered by snow or hidden by vegetation. You want the face of the SC10 to get as much sunlight as possible.
  • Page 6: Mounting With Screws

    Mounting with Screws The SC10 can also be mounted on a post, wall, or tree using a couple of screws or lag bolts; one to hang the unit on, and one to keep it from rotating. ©RECONYX, Inc.
  • Page 7 The SC10 Mounting Bracket allows you to mount the bracket to a post, pole, wall or tree, then simply slip the SC10 onto the bracket and secure it to the bracket with a couple of bolts on the bottom of the unit.
  • Page 8: Connecting The System

    This provides you with enough cable to hopefully mount the SC10 where it can get the most sunlight (up to 12 feet from the camera). There is a hold down under these cleats to clip the cable into to hold excess wire on the cleats if your camera is closer than 12 feet.
  • Page 9 If you are using internal backup batteries, your desiccant option is to use our desiccant sheets. They lay over top of the batteries and absorb moisture that may enter the camera over time. These are available at www.reconyx.com. www.reconyx.com...
  • Page 10 If the pellets are blue, they are dry. When they turn pink/white, they need to be recharged. You can recharge them by placing on a cookie sheet in a low oven (170F). Bake them dry and you can re-use them. ©RECONYX, Inc.
  • Page 11: Camera Setup

    Note, if your camera reads 0% while set to SC10 and it is still running for some time, you can be pretty sure something has gone wrong, and it is running on its internal batteries.
