Ki Pro Installation and Operation Manual — Remote Network Control
Using DC Power
To run Ki Pro on DC power, simply plug a 3rd-party industry standard 12 volt battery
pack with a 4-pin female XLR connector into the side power connector on Ki Pro. The
battery should be capable of supplying a sustained 3.3 A (just like the supplied AC
Adapter provides). Such battery packs are available from a variety of sources.
Notes: To operate Ki Pro properly, batteries must produce no less than 12 volts and no more
than 18 volts. Ki Pro consumes only approximately 30 watts of power, so many batteries can
power Ki Pro for several hours at a time. In the event of sudden power loss, recordings in
progress will not be written properly to the media. Therefore, note when the "Low Battery"
warning appears and stop recording as soon as possible. If the battery stops providing
sufficient power, Ki Pro may or may not have time to close the file, depending on the nature
of the battery and the duration of the recording. To prevent power loss, use batteries with
metering or remaining charge indicators and stop recording while sufficient power remains.
For very long recordings, use the supplied AC power supply instead of battery power.
