Charging the Controller

When charging the controller, only use the power
unit provided by doctorseyes. Connect the power
unit to the socket on the front of the controller. The
blinking loading symbol shows the loading status
even when the controller is turned off.
When the controller is fully charged, the loading sym-
bol changes from red to green. The red low battery
symbol disappears after charging.
It will take approx. 3 hours to charge but you can
stop charging at any time. The battery has no memo-
ry effect.
Important: You can have the battery connected to
power constantly due to trickle charge. (Firmware
version >2.3)

Adjust depth of focus In the P-mode the Canon G15
automatically sets the shutter speed and aperture
with acceptable depth of focus. If desired, you can
infl uence the depth of focus by manually setting the
camera's aperture.Turn the mode dial to the A-mode.
The display will show an A in the upper right corner.
To select aperture value, Move the front Control Dial
The higher the number, the smaller the aperture,
thus more depth of focus. The aperture you select
also depends on whether the zoom is set more to the
W or T side. One can shoot pictures without using a
tripod up to a shutter speed of 1/60 of a second.
To change aperture just press the button as shown
on the picture until the setting for the aperture is
selected and change value with the Control Dial to 8
(maximum value for this camera).
Note: We have set up your camera with the aperture
8 preselected on Custom mode C1. Just turn menu
dial until C1 stops at the yellow glowing mark .
7) Changing ISO values
In case the light might not be suffi cient then raise the
ISO speed value to prevent getting badly focussed
pictures. If you choose too high an ISO speed
then the picture quality will decrease.When using a
doctorseyes lighting system you should always have
enough light. If not kindly check the brightness con-
trol on the Power & Light Controller
