1. The DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module draws a small amount of power any time a battery is attached, when there is no charging source available.
CHARGE WITH THE DSMC2 REDVOLT XL MODULE
The DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module can charge one (1) REDVOLT XL battery, but only when the camera is off. When the
camera is on, power is drawn from the battery rather than the attached power supply, resulting in a net loss of power.
The DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module can fully charge a discharged REDVOLT XL in approximately four (4) hours.
To charge a REDVOLT XLbattery with the DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module, follow the instructions below:
1. Turn off the camera.
2. Attach the protective baseplate to the DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module.
3. Connect the DSMC AC Power Adaptor to the DC IN port on the DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module.
NOTE: The battery does not charge if the power source is connected to the DCINport on the BRAIN.
4. Insert a REDVOLT XL battery into the DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module.
WARNING: DO NOT use the DSMC2 REDVOLT XL Module as a desktop charger without the protective baseplate to
cover the rear connectors. This may cause irreparable damage to the rear connectors on the module and is not
covered under warranty.
