Power • Controller
(BLACKBOX-D/BLACKBOX-4G)
The battery level is shown in the top right corner of the screen. When a
single line remains, the controller will continue to receive photos but we
strongly recommend to change the AA batteries or charge the lithium bat-
tery pack before they are empty.
AA BATTERIES
The controller requires 6 AA batteries (1.5V). The use of alkaline or lithium
batteries is strongly recommended. During the installation of the AA batte-
ries, slide the battery switch to ALK (i.e. alkaline). Insert the batteries in the
compartment as indicated. Battery polarity must be followed.
Please note that the voltage of rechargeable AA batteries (1.2V) is
insufficient to power the controller. We also recommend the use of new
batteries to ensure maximum performance of your device.
LITHIUM BATTERY PACK
The controller can be powered by a rechargeable lithium battery pack LIT-
09/LIT-C-8 (sold separately, p.44). This type of battery is less affected by
cold temperatures and lasts up to 3 times longer than an alkaline batteries.
During the installation of the lithium battery pack, slide the battery switch
to LIT-09. Insert the lithium battery pack in the compartment as indicated.
EXTERNAL (12V)
The controller 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.44). During the installation of a 12-volt
connection, slide the battery switch to ALK (the AA batteries can remain
safely inside the controller). If combined with a lithium battery pack, slide
the battery switch to LIT-09. For available accessories, see p.44.
SOLAR PANEL
The controller also offers the possibility to connect a solar panel (SP-12V
sold separately, p.44) to maintain the charge of the lithium battery pack
(sold separately, p.44). While installing the rechargeable lithium battery
pack, slide the battery switch to LIT-09 to activate the charging system of
the solar panel.
