Using AC Power

Use an AC-DN2B/DN10 AC adaptor.
Connect a DC power cord (not supplied) to this
unit's DC IN 11-17V connector, and then connect
the AC power cord (supplied with the AC
adaptor) to an AC power source.

Turning on the Power

Push the power ON (|)/OFF (1) switch to the ON
side. The power indicator lights when the unit is
powered on.
Power is supplied to the viewfinder connected to
the VF connector and to the lens connected to the
LENS connector, and 12 V power is supplied
from the DC OUT connector.
Push the switch to the OFF side to power the unit
off. The indicator goes out when unit is powered
off.
Notes
• To protect tapes, do not power the unit off with a
cassette loaded. Always eject the cassette before
powering the unit off.
If you do power the unit off with a cassette loaded, the
power does not go off immediately. This is to protect
the tape. The power goes off after the tape has been
returned to the unthreaded position.
Release button
• Do not remove the battery pack or disconnect the DC
power cord before the power goes off.

Checking the Power and Voltage

To check the type of power being used
A battery mark appears in the lower left of the
control panel display when power is being
supplied from the battery attachment section.
A power plug mark appears when an AC adaptor
is selected as the power supply.
Note that this mark does not reflect the actual type
of power being used, but reflects the settings of
the following VTR menu items.
• SYSTEM Setup >BATTERY >BATT TYPE
• SYSTEM Setup >BATTERY >DCIN TYPE
A 15-segment bar graph (maximum value: 10 A)
displays the unit's operating current.
The bar graph flashes red in the following cases.
• When the input current to the DC IN 11-17V
connector exceeds 9 A.
• When one of the unit's internal power systems
has been disconnected.
To check the remaining battery power
You can check the remaining battery power with
the battery level display.
As the battery pack discharges, the segments go
out from left to right.
When the battery pack is almost exhausted (Near
END), the voltage indication and the tally
indicator start to flash, and an intermittent
warning tone sounds in the headphones.
When the battery pack is completely exhausted
(END), the corresponding warning indication
lights, the tally indicator starts to flash at a higher
rate, and the headphones warning tone sounds
continuously.
