GET READY TO CAPTURE
STEP 1
Charge the Microphones
In order to do a successful capture, you will need to charge the microphones in advance. This is accomplished by plugging the
camera into a power source using the power adapter and by placing the microphones in either dock on the camera. Make sure that
they are fully docked. You do not need to attach the capture station (laptop) when charging.
When docked, a RED LED status light on the microphones indicates they are charging; a GREEN light indicates that they are charged.
Note: It is advised that you charge the microphones for 45 minutes to 2 hours before your first use. It will take approximately 45
minutes for an 80% charge and 3 hours for a full charge. A full charge lasts for approximately 6 hours of continuous recording.
Tips for Success
Check that the clip on the teacher microphone is not interfering with being fully docked when charging.
Check to make sure the capture device (camera) has a GREEN light between the microphone docks. If the light is
not lit, the mic is not receiving power. Check the connection to the power source.
