Charging in a vehicle with the ignition off
Note:
The version of the base that serves only as a
charger for the HiFi Mic is not used in the vehicle. For
information about the charge-only base, contact your
WatchGuard Video representative.
As the mic charges, the red LEDs flash and the bars in the
Battery
Level
icon on the display cycle in series. When the mic is fully charged,
the green LEDs turn on and the
Battery Level
icon shows four bars.
After 30 minutes, the mic is approximately 50 percent charged; the mic
is fully charged after three hours.
Note:
If you charge your mic in a charge-only base, you
may need to resync the mic with the base in your vehicle
when you want use it again.
Charging in a vehicle with the ignition off
When you shut down your vehicle, the DVR shuts down with it. Because
the HiFi Mic base is connected to the vehicle through the DVR, the base
shuts down as well.
After ten minutes, the base powers back up and begins to charge the
transmitter (mic). The base remains on for four hours to fully charge the
mic, then the base shuts down.
Using Two HiFi Microphones
For the most part, using two HiFi Microphones (HiFi Mics) in a vehicle is
just like using one. If you use two HiFi Mics in the same vehicle, you need
to implement two items to minimize potential interference:
l
When you install the HiFi Mic antennas, install them horizontally in the
upper right and upper left corners of the windshield, to keep them as far
apart as possible
l
If you are only using one of the transmitters (mics), dock the unused mic
in its vehicle base
