During recording or playback (while the ACCESS
indicator is lit), be careful never to remove the battery
pack.
8-1-2 Avoiding Breaks in Operation
Due to an exhausted Battery
When the battery pack is becoming exhausted, you can
perform battery replacement without causing a break to the
camcorder operation by using an AC adaptor.
To do this, proceed as follows.
1
Connect an AC-550/AC-550CE Adaptor to an AC
power source, then connect it to the DC IN connector
of the camcorder.
For details, see the next section.
The power source switches automatically from the
battery pack to the AC adaptor connected to the DC IN
connector.
Note
There may be some noise on the video signal at the
time of power source switching.
2
Replace the battery pack with a fully charged one.
3
To switch back the power source from the AC adaptor
to the battery, disconnect the AC adaptor from the DC
IN connector.
8-1-3 Using an AC Adaptor
Using the AC-550/550CE AC adaptor
Connect the camcorder to the AC power supply through
the AC-550/550CE AC Adaptor as shown in the following
figure, and turn the POWER switch of the AC-550/550CE
on.
Using an AC Adaptor
Using the AC-DN2B AC adaptor
Mount the AC-DN2B on the camcorder in the same way as
a battery pack, then connect to the AC power supply. The
AC-DN2B can supply up to 150 W of power.
