Prior to Operation
4.12 Battery Charging
To charge EYE-C-GAS batteries, connect the AC power cord to the battery charger and plug the
cord into an AC outlet. Insert a battery into the EYE-C-GAS charger by loading the battery into
the charger until it latches (the battery can only be loaded one way). Repeat for the other two
batteries. The battery charger LEDs will indicate red while charging and turn to green when the
corresponding battery is fully charged. A flashing red LED indicates an error such as incorrect
battery placement on the charger or an improperly functioning battery. To fully charge a depleted
battery takes about 6 hours.
Caution
Use only EYE-C-GAS battery packs manufactured by Opgal (part number:
8G9M5000B ).
Use only the supplied battery charger to charge the battery packs.
Damage to the EYE-C-GAS system caused by batteries manufactured by other companies may
void the system warranty.
Do not charge the battery pack(s) while they are hot.
Do not charge the battery pack(s) or operate the battery charger in a hazardous environment.
Recycle the battery pack(s) at an approved disposal location.
Operating the battery pack(s) in high or low temperature environments will reduce operational
run time.
Do not expose the battery pack(s) to fire or extremely high temperatures.
Do not cause damage to or attempt to short circuit the battery pack(s).
Fully charge a battery pack if it has not been used in two months.
Refer to Section 8, Troubleshooting and Maintenance for additional battery pack maintenance
recommendations.
4.13 EYE-C-GAS Initial Operation
Before operating your EYE-C-GAS camera for the first time, ensure that all standard items and
features and those accessories or features that you have purchased are included and/or installed
per the Packing List.
1. Take out the EYE-C-GAS camera and remove the installed battery.
2. Take out the two additional battery packs from the carrying case.
3. Remove the adhesive tape from all battery contacts if installed.
4. Place the battery packs in the charger and perform a full charge.
5. Check if the battery packs have a full charge by verifying the green LED is lit on the
charger for all three packs. When installed on the EYE-C-GAS, all three green LEDs
will be lit to also indicate the battery pack is fully charged. OPGAL recommends that
you fully charge any battery pack which is not fully charged prior to using.
6. Install a fully charged battery pack into the EYE-C-GAS camera.
