SMART REMOTE

BATTERY

The Smart Remote can control your cameras from up to 600’ (180m) 
away in optimal conditions with a clear line of sight between the Smart 
Remote and the Omni. To use the Smart Remote with Omni, pair it only 
with the primary camera. You can then control all 6 cameras remotely.

For information about connecting the Smart Remote to your HERO4 
Black cameras, see the Smart Remote User Guide at

 gopro.com/help

.

Note: You cannot use more than one Smart Remote with Omni or control more than one 
Omni with a Smart Remote.

MAXIMIZING BATTERY LIFE

 

The battery icon on the camera screen blinks when the battery drops 
below 10%. If the battery in any of the cameras reaches 0% while 
recording, the camera saves the file and the array powers off. 

Extreme cold temperatures can decrease battery life. To maximize battery 
life in cold conditions, keep the camera in a warm place prior to use. 

CHARGING INFORMATION

 

The battery charges to 100% in approximately two hours when using 
GoPro’s USB-compatible Wall or Auto Charger (both sold separately).

When charging with a computer, be sure that the computer is connected 
to a power source. If the camera status light does not turn on, use a 
different USB port.

The included lithium-ion battery comes partially charged. No damage 
occurs to the camera or battery if used prior to a full charge.

You can also charge the battery outside the camera using the HERO4 
Dual Battery Charger (sold separately).  

WARNING: Using a wall charger other than a GoPro Wall Charger 

can damage the GoPro battery and could result in fire or leakage. 

Only use chargers marked: Output 5V 1A. If you do not know the 

voltage and current of your charger, use the included USB cable to 

charge the camera from your computer.
