When things don't go right...
- Q3
- Why doesn't anything appears on the monitor screen for a while after I turn on camera and controller power?
- A3
- If you press [Power] on the controller or if you do not perform any controller operation for about 25 seconds or 10 minutes* while there is a Bluetooth wireless technology connection between the camera and controller, the controller image will go blank, and the camera and controller will enter a sleep mode. The operation lamp slowly flashes green while the camera is in the sleep mode. To restore the controller display, press the controller button. The Bluetooth wireless technology connection between the camera and controller is maintained even while they are in the sleep mode, so they can quickly recover when you press a button.
* In the case of controller version 1.01 or higher.
If our controller's firmware version number is 1.00, update your firmware.
EX-FR10 - Version 2.00
NOTE
• Turning off controller power does not turn off camera power.
If you leave the camera on, it will remain in the sleep mode as long as it is turned on and power is being supplied. Eventually the battery will go dead.
• Pressing the controller's shutter button causes both the camera and the controller to exit the sleep mode.
• The operation lamps of both the camera and the controller flash while they are in the sleep mode.
Note that battery power consumed in the sleep mode. Turn off the controller and camera when they are not in use.
• To protect against operation errors, be sure to turn off both the camera and the controller when transporting them.
• In areas where radio signal communication is prohibited or restricted, turn off both the camera and controller.
Do not leave them in the sleep mode.
• During an Interval Snapshot operation, flicking the controller's monitor screen will exit the sleep mode and display conditions that are configured for the operation.
• If you don't use the camera or controller while it is in the sleep mode, it will enter a deep sleep mode.
