09 CHARGING THE RECHARGEABLE BATTERY NVS2501 INTERFACE 10
7. Charging the Rechargeable Battery
1. Internal battery
The battery can be charged using the AC power adapter unit delivered with this
product.
① Turn off NVS2501.
② Connect the charger’s wall plug to the NVS’s "DC IN" slot.
③ Plug the AC power adapter unit into a wall socket.
④ The LED above the Control key shows red during the charging.
⑤ When the battery is charged, the red LED turns off.
⑥ If there is an error when charging, the LED blinks. If this happens,
unplug the AC adapter unit and plug it in again.
Users can charge the NVS2501 via the USB/FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) cable,
or the AA battery holder.
With a completely empty rechargeable battery, the charging procedure lasts
approximately 4 hours using the AC power adapter, or the FireWire 800 (IEEE
1394b) cable. With the USB cable, charging takes about 7 hours.
With the AA battery holder, charging takes about 10 hours. An AA battery pack
charges about 40% of the internal battery capacity.
Reference
● You must turn off the NVS2501 in order to charge the unit.
● The NVS2501 can be charged via USB without using the AC power adapter
included in the box. A high powered USB connection is needed, i.e. a USB
connection with its own power supply, such as the USB port of a computer or
a USB hub with a power unit.
● If the NVS2501 is operated with a notebook, you must always use the AC
power adapter unit to charge the NVS2501. Notebooks may not deliver the
necessary amount of current via USB
● The NVS2501 will operate for about two hours with a fully charged internal
battery.
● When connected to a computer using FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) or USB,
the NVS2501 draws power from the computer, not the internal battery.
● If the NVS2501’s battery is completely discharged, the performance of
the battery may be degraded. It is recommended that the NVS2501’s battery
be recharged before the battery gauge reaches the empty level.
● See Chapter 8 for more information on the battery gauge.
Caution
● Car charger cable should be used only for charging the internal
(or external) battery.
