Contents Back Next Index 58 Using the Camera Connected to a Computer Powering Your Camera When connected to the computer, your camera receives its power from the included AC adapter (via the IEEE 1394 interface) or a compatible battery. If you use an IEEE 1394 cable other than the one included with your DCS Pro Back Plus, ensure that it is a 6-wire IEEE 1394 cable (4-wire cables will not work). If you do not use the AC adapter with the IEEE 1394 cable, the DCS Pro Back Plus will not receive enough power. An error message appears. To Power the Camera With the IEEE 1394 cable and DCS Pro Back Plus AC Adapter (page 55) or a compatible battery (page 61) connected, turn the computer on. It takes 5-6 seconds for the DCS Pro Back Plus to activate once the initial power signal is received. When ready, the Camera Ready LED illuminates. (The Power button has no effect when power is supplied by the IEEE 1394 connection. ) " If you turn the Image LCD on, it turns off automatically after the time specified in the Display Off Time property (page 51).
