Power Supply
flex-s only
BEFORE YOUR FIRST USE, CHARGE THE INTERNAL BATTERY
- Ensure the camera is powered OFF
- Plug the charging cable (12 V DC connector) to the camera.
- The status light will illuminate red while charging and turn OFF when fully charged.
- It is recommended to charge the battery fully (approximately 12 hours).
OPERATION
- The solar panel is not an autonomous power source for your camera. Its only function is to maintain the charge of the internal battery or to slowly charge it. The solar panel will be effective as soon as ambient solar energy is detected.
- Make sure there are no objects or elements obstructing the solar panel (e.g.: snow). If it is partially covered, the solar panel will still work, but to a limited extent. For optimal performance, it must be completely clear.
- Under optimal conditions (a configuration that consumes little energy), the energy and a sunny environment), the power supply of the camera will be autonomous.
- If your internal battery runs out, the camera will shut down unless you have a secondary power source (e.g.: LIT-22, AA, 12V, ect.).
- If the camera turns OFF, the solar panel will continue to charge the internal battery. Charging by solar power only can take an extended amount of time – for a quick and complete recharge, connect the camera to a wall outlet using the supplied USB cable and a USB power adapter.
- When you restart your camera, after recharging the internal battery, it will return to the settings you previously selected.
CHOOSING A POWER SOURCE
FLEX-S only – It’s not required to add additional power sources to your
camera, but you may want to extend the overall time between visits. 4 options
are available to you:
- Alkaline or lithium AA batteries
- Rechargeable battery 12 V (#KIT-12V sold separately)
- Rechargeable battery pack 7.4 V (#LIT-22 sold separately)
- Solar panel lithium battery 12 V (#SPLB-22 or #SPLB-10 sold separately)
FOR BEST RESULTS AND NO LEAKAGE
- Do not mix new and old batteries.
- Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for the intended use.
- Replace all batteries in a set at the same time.
- Clean the battery contacts and those of the device prior to battery installation.
- Ensure that the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and -).
- Remove batteries from equipment that is not to be used for an extended period of time.
- Remove used batteries promptly.
- Do not use rechargeable AA batteries (their lower voltage will generate operational issues).
- When batteries of different brand or type are used together, or new and old batteries are used together, some batteries may be over-discharged due to a difference in voltage or capacity. This can result in venting, leakage, and rupture and may cause personal injury.
HOW TO INSTALL AA BATTERIES PROPERLY
- Unlock the latch and open the FLEX door.
- Place the battery holder back into the battery compartment with arrows facing up (See Photo)
- Insert the AA batteries into the battery holder following polarity (+) and (-) indications.
- Place the battery holder back into the battery compartment.
SPLB-22 OR SPLB-10:
SOLAR PANEL LITHIUM BATTERY COMBO UNIT
- Combines solar panel and lithium battery into one unit to reduce wires and setup time.
- Plugs directly into camera to provide extensive, ongoing battery life for your camera so you can avoid visits.
- Additional jacks and plugs allows for device flexibility.
MANAGING VARIOUS CAMERA POWER SUPPLY
If you choose to plug an external 12V battery (SPLB-22, SPLB-10 or KIT-12V,
sold separately) into your camera, it becomes your camera’s new primary power
source. The AA batteries will only be used once the 12V battery is depleted.
FLEX-S only : the cameras primary power source is the internal battery,
once the internal battery is depleted, the camera will default to the 12V and
then to the LIT-22 or AA’s installed in the battery tray.
You can check the battery level on your device or in the mobile
aplication:
- In the application: on the home page, you will see the battery charge level for each of your devices. You can access more details on the status of your battery by going to the STATUS page. When the battery logo turns red, we suggest that you change the batteries before it is completely drained.
- Once the device is powered on. There are four green lights within the battery icon indicating the battery level. Your Flex + has two battery slots.
FLEX-PLUS ONLY
You can use them in any configuration with compatible batteries.
Please check the chart below to confirm compatibility.
SLOT 1 | SLOT 2 |
---|---|
AA | LIT-22 |
LIT-22 | AA |
AA | AA |
LIT-22 | LIT-22 |
ANY | NONE |
NONE | ANY |
BATTERY USAGE
- The camera will use rechargeable power sources before AA. In the event that you are running two sets of AA batteries, the set with the lowest capacity will be used first. The same scenario applies to using two LIT-22’s. The camera will use the lowest capacity battery first and then switch to the second battery after it has been depleted.
- Should you decide to also add an external battery using the 12V port of the camera – The camera will prioritize the 12V power first and only when it is depleted will it use the batteries located in the Slots.
Memory Card
INSTALLING A MEMORY CARD (NOT INCLUDED)
The use of a memory card is necessary for the operation of the camera. It is
used to save photos, videos and other camera status files. Note that photos
and videos in their original format are kept on the memory card.
The files sent to your application are lighter versions. You can retrieve your
photos and videos at any time by removing the card from the camera and
transferring the contents to another device (e.g.: computer).
Your camera requires a microSD memory card, with a maximum capacity of 512 GB,
sold separately. Here is a table showing the approximate quantity of photos or
videos that can be recorded on the card, according to different memory card
capacities.
