POWER
DC INPUT:
The primary DC input is a 5.5mm O.D., 2.1mm I.D. center-positive barrel jack connecter located on the back of the MōVI Controller. It is designed for a 15V power
supply, but will accept voltages from 13V to 20V. It is reverse polarity protected up to 20V. However, supplying more than 20V will result in damage.
There are several battery options for powering the MōVI Controller. An optional IDX mounting plate can be fitted, which will supply power to the DC input from
standard V-Lock batteries and provides one additional D-Tap output. An optional overcurrent-protected MōVI battery (LiPo) cable is also available. The MōVI
Controller will go into low power sleep mode when the battery drains below 13V, but it is still important to turn off the power switch and remove the battery when
not in use.
12V DC OUTPUT:
When supplied with a 13-20V DC input, the MōVI Controller generates a regulated 12V output for powering auxilaries at up to 3A. The output is a 2-pin LEMO
connector with standard polarity. (Pin 1 / red dot / key is positive. Note: This is reversed from the polarity of the Teradek Bolt.) The mating connector is
FGG.0B.302.CLAD52.
USB:
The MōVI Controller USB ports are capable of supplying 5V at up to 2A for powering external devices such as wireless video receivers, tablets, or smartphones.
Note: Only the top USB port can be used for powering Apple devices.
The MōVI Controller can be powered at 5B through either of its USB ports. When powered by USB, the regulated 12V output will not be active. USB voltage may be
noisy and vary significantly from host device to host device. This can cause noise or drift on the joystick axes. Always power the controller through the primary DC
input when possible. Refer to the Tx Config menu description for tips on how to detect and remove joystick drift.
Note: Powering your MōVI Controller with both DC input and USB simultaneously will not cause any damage.
