Getting started:

Battery: 

We recommend that you charge new batteries before using them. 
To begin, connect battery to charger and commence charging. 
While charging, the red light will illuminate. When the red light turns 
green, the battery is 100% charged. 
 

Assemble Master Caddy: 

Fix the Hard Disk or Solid State Drive into the Master Caddy as 
shown (right). Align screw holes on all three pieces and assemble 
completely. Insert screws last. 

      

Handle the HDD or SSD with care

Touch screw holes or metal shell first. Avoid contact with circuit board 

and connectors.

Blade recorder by selecting the BLUE arrow       next to Recording
