Power
The battery level is shown in the bottom right corner of the screen when
the camera is in TEST mode. When a single line remains, the camera will
continue to take photos. However, we strongly recommend to change the AA
batteries or charge the lithium battery pack before they are empty. If a
video is being recorded and the battery level reaches 0%, the camera saves
the file before shutting down.
AA BATTERIES
This camera requires 6 AA batteries (1.5V). The
use of alkaline or lithium batteries is strongly
recommended. During the installation of the AA
batteries, the LIT-09 CHARGER option located in
the GENERAL SETTINGS menu should be "Off".
Insert the batteries as indicated inside the battery
case. Battery polarity must be followed.
Please note that the voltage of rechargeable
AA batteries (1.2V) is insufficient to power
the SPYPOINT camera. We also recommend the
use of new batteries to ensure maximum perfor-
mance of the camera.
LITHIUM BATTERY PACK
This SPYPOINT camera can be powered by a
rechargeable lithium battery pack LIT-09/LIT-
C-8 (sold separately, p.17). This type of bat-
tery is less affected by cold temperatures and
lasts up to 3 times longer than alkaline batteries.
During the installation of the lithium battery, the
LIT-09 CHARGER option located in the GENERAL
SETTINGS menu should be "On".
EXTERNAL (12V)
This camera can also be powered by an external 12-volt DC input such as a
12-volt battery (KIT-12V, BATT-12V or KIT6V/12V) or a 12-volt adapter
(AD-12V), each sold separately (p.17). During the installation of a 12-volt
connection, the LIT-09 CHARGER option located in the GENERAL SETTINGS
menu should be "Off" (the AA batteries can remain safely inside the came-
ra). If combined with a lithium battery pack, the LIT-09 CHARGER option
should be "On". For available accessories, see p.17.
In order to get best results and longer battery life, we recommend the
use of an external 12-volt source.
SOLAR PANEL
This camera also offers the possibility to connect a solar panel (SP-12V sold
separately, p.17) to maintain the charge of the lithium battery pack
(sold separately, p.17). While installing the rechargeable lithium battery
pack, the LIT-09 CHARGER option located in the GENERAL SETTINGS menu
should be "On" to activate the charging system of the solar panel.
