7.2 Power Management
The Power Management menu option has three criteria to help preserve
battery life and help keep operating temperatures low when working in
hot conditions.
Display Off Time
Switch off the Credo’s display screen after 5 seconds, 20 seconds, 1
minute or 5 minutes. The display can also be set to remain permanently
on while the Credo is in operation with the Always On option.
Battery Charging
The Leaf Credo back has an integrated battery charger to ensure that
the battery is charged when shooting tethered via a USB or FireWire
connection. This function can be switched off or set to Slow or Fast. The
Slow and Off settings should be chosen to preserve the battery life of a
laptop when shooting tethered.
Note: The battery only charges via a USB or FireWire connection when
the Leaf Credo back is switched on. Only after it has been switched on,
does it continue to charge when it is turned off.
Auto Power Down
Auto Power Down determines the amount of time before the Leaf Credo
back shuts down, when there is no activity. Choose 1 minute, 5 minutes,
30 minutes, 2 hours or deactivate this function by selecting Off.
Press the Power button to switch on and restart the Leaf Credo back
after it has shut down.
Power On and Off from Mamiya 645DF/DF+
The Credo back may also be powered on and off directly from the
Mamiya 645DF/DF+ body. When the body is turned off the Credo back
will power down after 10 seconds, unless it is interrupted manually on
the screen or by pushing a button.
To disable this feature, scroll to the second page of the Power
Management menu and tap the Off button.
