Conserving the VTG 300 Battery Life
In order to conserve battery life, batteries should be removed
from the VTG 300 if it will not be used for an extended period of
time. For information specific to the VTG 300R charging
system, see the following section Recharging the VTG 300R.
Use these battery-saving features whenever possible to
maximize the operational life of the VTG 300/300R batteries:
• Backlight mode (set to “Off”)
• Enable at power up (set to “Last Used”)
• Power off timer (set to as short an interval as possible)
Battery Operational Life Expectancy (VTG 300 only)
Alkaline 1:10 to 2:45
Rechargeable (NiMH) 1:20 to 3:10
Battery Type Range (hours:minutes)
For best results, use high quality alkaline batteries or
high current-capacity (2000 mA or greater) NiMH
rechargeable batteries.
For NTSC/PAL rates, the component video output is
intended for signal verification and alignment, and
should not be used as a reference.
Installing the VTG 300 Batteries
Four AA batteries (rechargeable or alkaline) may power the
VTG 300 and are easily installed. With the protective boot
removed, use a flat blade screwdriver to loosen the captive
screw and remove the rear battery pack cover. Replace the
batteries while observing the correct polarity molded in the
battery cradle as the batteries are installed. Reinstall the cover.
See the illustration below.

Selecting a signal range
Press the Range button to select from either a computer output
rate (PC), video output rate (NTSC, PAL, etc.), HDTV output
rate, or 16:9 HR output rate.
Setting the scan rate
The scan rate for a signal range is selected from a list of rates
using the or Rate buttons and observing the LCD. The
scan rate options are as follows:
