Attaching and removing the CFV
When both attaching and removing the protective cover as well as attaching and removing
the CFV to the camera, hold down the lock safety button
Avoid trying to just 'snap' the CFV or protective cover into place without using the buttons.
Powering the CFV
The CFV requires power either from the battery (7.2V Sony InfoLithium L type − NP-F550
for example) or from a computer via a FireWire cable.
To attach a battery:
1. Firstly, ensure the battery is fully charged (see user appropriate manual for battery
and charger).
2. Position the battery as in the illustration.
3. Press the battery towards the camera C. This automatically depresses the battery
retaining catch. Slide the battery into the final position
prongs on the camera are inserted into the battery. The battery retaining catch will
now return to the safety position.
To remove a battery:
Depress the battery retaining catch and slide the battery over it. It will then be freely
removed.
FireWire connection:
4. Simply connect the FireWire cable between the FireWire port on the CFV and the
FireWire port on the computer. You will not need to attach a battery with a FireWire
connection.

ON / OFF button
With a fully charged battery fitted, keep the ON/OFF button depressed for at least two
seconds. (This time delay helps prevent unintentionally turning the CFV on.) A Hasselblad
logo splash screen will appear on the display followed by an audible signal. This signifies
that the CFV has beeen activated.
The CFV will enter standby mode after the preset time to save the battery. Keep the ON/
OFF button depressed again to turn the CFV off. An audible signal will be heard again to
confirm this. (If it appears that you have to press the button twice to turn it off it is because
the CFV has already entered standby mode.)
However, you will not need to use this button with a FireWire connection as the active mode
is instigated automatically. The splash screen appears but no audible signal is heard from
the CFV. There may be an audible signal generated by the computer, however. Removing
the FireWire connection turns the CFV off immediately, also without an audible signal
from the CFV.
Battery warning
A warning on the display (fig. 6) appears as a flashing yellow icon in the top right of the
screen signifying that the battery should be charged (or changed) as soon as possible. The
warning icon will also appear with a FireWire connection and will in addition turn red to
signify that the camera battery is completely exhausted.
Time & Date settings on the CFV (which are included with your capture files and batch labels)
are updated automatically through a FireWire/Phocus connection. These settings are retained
for about two consecutive weeks by a small rechargeable cell that is automatically recharged
by the main battery or FireWire with regular use.
If problems occur, charge the cell by leaving the CFV ON for approximately 12 hours.
