Getting Started
2–2 Using USB/Analog Video Adapter Cable—Scout II 320 only
To obtain analog video out, insert the adapter cable into the USB connector. The camera will detect
the adapter cable and provide the video stream. Use an RCA cable to connect to a monitor or a
video recorder.
When using the USB/Analog Video Adapter cable to record video or supply video to a remote
monitor, it may be useful to turn off the Auto Shutdown feature of the camera.
2–3 Scout II Series Power Management
Your Scout II Series camera is equipped with a power management system that provides up to five
hours of continuous operation. When left in the Off state the battery will hold a charge for up to two
months. To make the best use of the camera it is important to understand the basic power states of
the camera.
• When the camera is turned on from the Off state, it takes about five seconds to become
operational. During the Bootup process, the FLIR splash screen is shown and then the
software version is displayed briefly. Pressing the Power button will toggle the camera
between On and Off.
• The camera shuts down after about five minutes if no buttons are pushed.
