Preparations
Preparing the
Power
Supply
You
can power the camcorder using a battery pack or directly using the supplied compact power adapter. If you
connect the compact power adapter
to
the camcorder while a battery pack is attached, the camcorder will draw
power from the power outlet.
Attaching the Ferrite Core
Attach the enclosed ferrite core before you connect the compact power adapter
to
the camcorder. Attaching the
ferrite core
to
the compact power adapter cable
is
necessary
to
suppress
RF
interference.
1
Attach
the
ferrite core
to
the
cable
about
6
cm
(2.4 in.)
from
the
DC plug
(the
plug
to
be
connected
to
the
DC IN terminal).
2 Pass
the
cable
through
the
center
of
the
core
and
wrap
it
around
the
core
(as
shown
in
the
illustration),
then
close
the
unit
until
it
clicks
shut.
Charging a Battery Pack
You
can power the camcorder using the supplied BP-820 Battery Pack or the optional BP-828 Battery Pack.
Both battery packs
are
compatible with Intelligent System so you can check the approximate remaining battery
usage time
(in
minutes) on the screen. For more accurate readings, when using a battery pack for the first time,
charge it fully and then use the camcorder until the battery pack
is
completely depleted.
1
Connect
the
compact
power
adapter
to
the
camcorder
and
plug
the
power
cord
into
a
power
outlet.
2
Attach
the
battery
pack
to
the
camcorder.
