4.1 – Battery charging via USB
SmartyCam
battery charging via USB has two possible options.
Socket charge (recommended):
•
connect
SmartyCam
to the power supply using the cable included in the kit: it has
to be plugged in the USB port placed in the product rear;
•
insert the power supply plug in the socket.
In case of
PC charge
via USB (not recommended): connect
SmartyCam
directly
to the
PC on, using the cable included in the kit.
It is recommended not to use an USB hub
. It
is also recommended to
use exclusively a 2.0 USB port.
Please do not connect SmartyCam to the PC unless having previously installed
SmartyManager software.
Warning: not all Personal computers USB ports provide enough power to charge
SmartyCam and, due to the power supply limitation of the PC, battery charging is
longer. Socket charge is then recommended.
