How to insert and charge the battery
The DIGISKY works with a device-specific, rechargeable lithiumion battery. Use the V070A rechargeable battery and the USB
battery charger included with the exposure meter.
Switch your DIGISKY off or wait until the exposure meter is
switched off automatically. Unscrew the battery cover at the back
of the meter with a (Philips) recessed head screwdriver, and then
pull it down and out of the housing.
Insert the battery into the compartment as shown in the figure.
Make sure that the battery is inserted with correct polarity
(+ and –)! Then place the battery cover over the battery
compartment and secure it with the screw.
Connect the cable to the USB port at the exposure meter first,
and then insert the mains plug into an electrical outlet.
The battery can also be charged using a USB port at a PC.
Remove the mains plug to this end, and connect the USB plug to
your PC.
The charging indicator lights up red while the battery is charging.
After the battery has been fully charged, the indicator will light up
green.
To protect the battery pack and prolong its life, do not charge it
for longer than 24 hours without break.
