5. POWER CONNECTOR
• This connector is the general system power supply.
• When plugged, the external power supply is used to :
• Power the unit
• Charge batteries
• Even if the unit is off, the battery are charged by the external
power supply.
• Use only the wall adaptor supplied with the MANTIS by EDDYFI.

5. POWER CONNECTOR
When the power cable is plugged, the position of the unit should allow to easily unlock
the connector. This is in order to shut down the unit in case of emergency.

13
There are two batteries on MANTIS.
One INTERNAL and one External.
WHEN PLUGGED, THE WALL ADAPTER :
• Supplies power to charge the batteries (unit off) :
- If only one battery is plugged, it is charged in 3 hours (if completely
flat).
- If two batteries, each with a different charge level, the internal
charger charges the lower battery at first. Then when the two
batteries have the same charge level, they are charged at the same
time. It takes 6 hours to completely charge 2 flat batteries.
WITHOUT WALL ADAPTER, BATTERIES ARE USED TO PROVIDE
MANTIS POWER :
• If batteries have different charge levels, the MANTIS drains more
power from the most charged battery until the levels are equal. Then
MANTIS equally drains power from the 2 batteries.
IF YOU USE AN EXTERNAL CHARGER, CHARGE IS FASTER: up to 4
hours of 6 hours with internal charger.

BATTERY STATUS
• Push the « BATTERY » button to check the battery level :
• GREEN for 5 seconds - Charged above 30%
• ORANGE for 5 seconds - Charged between 10 to 30%
• RED for 5 seconds - Charged bellow 10%
• BLINKING - Charging
You can check the battery level even if the unit is off.
ON/OFF
Push this button to power ON the unit.
If the unit is frozen, you can push the ON/OFF button for 4 seconds to force
the power down or remove the battery and press the RESET button.
Press on ON/OFF button briefly to shut down properly the MANTIS.

The external screen will be automatically detected by the MANTIS and will
keep same screen resolution as MANTIS (1024x768).
ETHERNET
• When plugged to a network, the MANTIS appears with the name
MANTIS-XXXX and the « Capture files»folder is shared with anybody:
Refer to EDDYFI procedure:
-PRO_GEKKO_INS_022-SHARING-USER-GUIDE
-PRO_GEKKO_INS_027_GEKKO_V2_Connectivity_US-A
• The Ethernet controller is 1Gb/s speed.
*When the IO hatch is closed, the IO connectors area are waterproof.
