BATTERY LIFE

When using the REDmote in wireless configuration, the battery will last approximately 8 hours before

charging is necessary.

NOTE: When not using the REDmote, for maximum battery storage life, use the Power / Lock

Switch to power down the REDmote completely by pressing down in the power off position and

using the displayed menu to shut down the REDmote and/or the REDmote and camera. Refer to

POWER UP / DOWN > POWER DOWN. If the Power / Lock Switch is pressed down in the power

off position and held until the REDmote powers down, the battery storage life will be reduced

greatly as there will be a slight power draw on the REDmote when shut down using this

procedure.

CHARGING

CHARGE TIME

A fully discharged REDmote battery will be fully charged in approximately 7 hours.

USING CAMERA

While connected to the camera, the REDmote will automatically recharge its internal battery. Charge

status is indicated by the Green Battery Icon at the top-right of the REDmote LCD display screen. A fully

discharged REDmote battery will be re-charged in approximately 8 hours if connected to a powered

camera. A much faster charge time may be achieved with a USB based power source such as laptop

P.C.

USING USB CONNECTOR

The REDmote can be charged by connecting a Mini-USB-to-USB cable between REDmote and a

computer or a cell phone charger.

NOTE: The REDmote can be charged using the Mini-USB connector while connected and

controlling a camera wirelessly.

NOTE: If the computer / cable / hub do not provide enough voltage, the REDmote will not charge

and show an "Error Charging" message.

1. Connect the USB connector to any computer (computer must be ON to charge REDmote).

2. Connect the Mini-USB end to the REDmote USB Port located on the lower right side (under rubber

protective cover).

3. If the REDmote is powered down (and paired camera is OFF), the REDmote will power UP, display

STARTING UP, display SEARCHING (with flashing Green LED), then settle into IDLE mode.

4. Green battery indicator will blink, indicating REDmote is charging.

5. A fully discharged REDmote battery will be fully charged in approximately 7 hours.
