(Scout 640 and 320 models)
3.3 SCOUT III POWER MANAGEMENT
USB to RCA Video Cable
Customer Supplied RCA Cable
To obtain analog video out, insert the adapter cable into the
USB connector. The monocular will detect the adapter cable
and provide the video stream. Use an RCA cable to connect to a
monitor or a video recorder.
When using the USB/Analog Video Adapter cable to record video or
supply video to a remote monitor, it may be useful to turn off the Auto
Power Off feature of the monocular.
Your SCOUT III Series monocular is equipped with a power
management system that provides up to five hours of continuous
operation. When left in the Off state the battery will hold a charge for
up to two months. To use the product it is important to understand the
basic power states of the product.
• When the monocular is turned on from the Off state, it takes about
five seconds to become operational. During the bootup process, the
FLIR splash screen is shown. Pressing the Power button will toggle the
monocular between On and Off.
• The camera shuts down after about five minutes if no
buttons are pushed.
