CHARGE STATUS
An icon shows the charge status of the REDMOTE battery in the lower right corner of the LCD.
When REDMOTE is operating in wireless mode, the icon indicates current charge capacity. When
satisfactory the icon is displayed in Green. When battery charge becomes marginal, the icon turns
Yellow. When battery charge is critically low, and wireless communication is at risk of being lost the icon
turns Red. The REDMOTE should be re-attached to the camera or rearmost module, or be attached to a
suitable USB power source, to recharge the battery before re-attempting wireless operation.
When attached to the camera or rearmost camera module, or external USB power source, this icon will
either display solid green, indicating fully charged, or blink, indicating the battery is being charged by the
camera or external USB power source.
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.
