Fit the video capture battery pack to the
camera as shown right and click into place.
Switch on the camera with the red button as
normal and a picture will be seen on the
display.
To initialise the video recording, a long push
on the right-hand button is required. The
transmit icon will appear on the viewing screen
as circled on the image below right.
Once the initialisation process has been
completed, after approx 15 seconds, the video
capture battery pack will start to record the
video.
A further long push on the right-hand button
will stop the recording of the video. The
transmit icon will disappear. The video capture
battery pack will now finish saving the file to its
internal memory and shut down the video
recording device. This process will take
approx 30 seconds and the camera will not
turn off during this time.
Do not remove the battery or turn the camera
off during the saving process as this will
corrupt the recorded file.
Video recording will automatically stop when
the battery capacity is nearly empty. This
ensures that the recorded file is saved
correctly and enables the user to have
approximately 10 minutes of camera use
before the camera loses power.
The P7030-LITE model does not have a video output facility, and therefore cannot be used to
capture video
The default setting for the camera is that it is not saving output video. It is possible to set the
camera so that when it is turned on it will commence recording immediately and without user input.
See FAQ 1 for instructions on how to do this with the customer software.
Note: It is recommended that before each BA team enters the fire, the camera be fitted with a
fully charged rechargeable battery.
Disposal of batteries should be in line with local procedures and they should be
segregated from domestic waste.
The battery pack will self-discharge at approximately 2% per day. Battery packs that have been
stored off-charge for two weeks will run a camera for at least two hours. It is recommended that
the rechargeable batteries are placed into storage fully charged and are routinely recharged so as
to be ready for use and to maintain performance. Shelf life is maximised by storage between 10
°C and 25 °C (50 °F and 77 °F). Battery packs that become fully exhausted in storage may suffer
irreversible damage.
