Displays critical specs of Odyssey. Input voltage, Current wattage draw of Odyssey
(varies with mode), current temperature of main processor. Tapping button brings up more
detailed information including the ABOUT menu of the Odyssey.
The Odyssey has a wide internal operating temperature window, up to 65° Celsius (149°
Fahrenheit). The Odyssey uses its magnesium case to passively shed excess heat.
There are no vents or fans in the Odyssey. Even under most harsh conditions, the Odyssey
should not suffer any operational issues due to heat. However, if the internal temperature
of the Odyssey rises high enough there are a series of warnings and safeguards in place
to protect the device and the recorded files.

The Odyssey has a wide range of acceptable voltage for incoming power, from 6.5 volts
to 34 volts. The total wattage draw from the Odyssey varies depending on the operational
mode it is set to, but is always within a very modest range from less than 8 watts to no
more than 15 watts. This allows a variety of battery options to be used with the device.
While there are file recovery parameters in place, it is never a good idea to lose power
while in the midst of recording. If the incoming voltage to the OdysseyQ drops low enough
there are a series of warnings and safeguards in place to protect the device and the
recorded files.
