Scout Bi-Ocular Power Management

Your Scout Bi-Ocular camera is equipped with a power management
system that provides up to five hours of continuous operation and up
to five days of standby time between battery charges. To make the
best use of the camera and to assure it is always ready when you need
it, it is important to understand the basic power states of the camera.

The Scout Bi-Ocular camera is designed to operate much like your cell
phone:

It is rarely turned off unless you do not plan to use it for a few
days or more.

When near a power source (AC power or a car cigarette lighter)
or when not in use, it is recommended that you keep a charger
plugged into the camera.

When the camera is turned on from the Off state, it takes about
90 seconds to become operational.

In Standby, it is always ready to go. Press the Power button and
the camera will come on in about two seconds.

It will automatically put itself in Standby to conserve the battery.

A red state LED located under the right-eye display, as shown in the
photograph below, indicates the current power state.
