Powering On
Each product built into this Mobile Video Studio receives DC power from the PD-2A or PD-6 unit on the rear
of the MS-2850.
Please ensure the PD-2A or PD-6 is fed with either an AC or DC feed before attempting to switch on the MS-
2850.
For more information about the PD-2A or PD-6 please refer to its manual in the binder.
If a product within the MS-2850 fails to start after the PD-2A or PD-6 is switched on please locate the on/off
switch for that product which has not yet started.
For further advice on using a product within the MS-2850 please refer to its manual in the binder.
Powering Off
Before powering off the MS-2850 via the PD-2A or PD-6 on/off switch please ensure the HDR-70 has been
stopped.
Packing Away
Once the external source and camera cabling have been removed from the rear connection plates replace
and secure the rear case cover.
Return the ITC-100 gooseneck mic, any ITC-100 cabling, tally lights and headsets etc to your accessory kit
bag/box.
