6. Battery and Safety
Cabin is supplied with a quickly removable 18650 Li-ion battery pack, which enabled the device
to be used for up to 7.5h. The battery should be fully charged before first use.
Method 1: Charging with Type-C Port
Align the orange vertical line on the battery
pack with the orange horizontal line next to the
battery compartment on the Cabin, and install
the battery pack into the battery compartment
of the product. For details, see Battery Pack
Installation.
Connect the Type C end (18) of the data cable
to the Type C port (4) of the product.
Connect the other end of the data cable to the power adapter (19) that comes with the product,
or connect to another USB power socket with a rated output voltage not exceeding 5V.
Plug the adapter into a 100-240V power socket (20) for charging.
Method 2: Charging with Battery Charger
Align the positioning block (A) of the battery pack (13) with the groove (B) of the battery
charger (15), and insert the battery pack
(13) into the battery charger (15).
Connect the plug of the USB Type-C cable
(18) to the USB connector of the power
adapter (19). Plug the power adapter (19)
into a socket 100-240V (20) (110V for
US).
Connect the other end of the USB cable (18)
to the Type-C port (16) of the battery
charger (15).

11th Guiyang Street, YEDA,
Yantai 264006, P.R. China
+86-400-998-3088
After finishing the above steps, the LED indicator (17) on the battery charger (15) will
display the battery charge state.
-◐Battery level is from 1% to 25%
-●◐Battery level is from 25% to 50%
-● ● ◐Battery level is from 50% to 75%
-● ● ● ◐Battery level is from 75% to 99%
-● ● ● ● The battery is fully charged.
After the battery is fully charged, remove the battery pack from the battery charger.
Note: Two batteries can be charged at the same time: the second slot is designed for it.
Battery Pack Installation
Turn up the puller (14) on the battery pack
(13), and align the orange line (D) on the
battery pack (13) with the orange line (C)
on the battery slot (21) and push the battery
pack (13) into the battery slot (21).
When the battery pack is completely
inserted into the battery slot, turn the puller
(14) clockwise to lock the battery pack.
Close the puller (14), and the battery pack is completely installed.
Cabin can only be powered by this battery pack. If other battery packs are used, it may cause
irreparable loss, damage to the device, and can even possibly cause fire.
Safety Measures
Use this battery holder to charge the battery pack only. Otherwise it will cause irreparable
damage to the battery pack or holder and even may cause fire.
Before a long storage time, the battery pack should be partially charged, not fully charged or
discharged.

11th Guiyang Street, YEDA,
Yantai 264006, P.R. China
+86-400-998-3088
Do not charge the battery immediately after you bring it from the cold to the warm. Wait 30
to 40 minutes for it to warm up.
Do not use the charger if it is modified or damaged.
The device should be charged at a temperature of 0°C~+45°C. Otherwise the battery life will
be significantly reduced.
When charging, please don't leave the battery unattended.
Do not expose the battery to high temperature or open flame.
Do not immerse the battery in water.
The battery pack has short circuit protection. But situations that may lead to short
circuits should be avoided.
Do not charge the battery for more than 24 hours after it is already fully charged.
It is not recommended to connect third-party devices that consume more power than allowed.
Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack without professional instructions; Do not
knock or drop the battery pack.
The recommended operating temperature for the device is -20°C~+50°C; Do not use the
device beyond this temperature range, which may shorten the battery life.
When the device is used under sub-zero temperature, the battery capacity drops, which is
normal and does not indicate a defect.
Please keep the battery pack out of the reach of children.
7. External Power Supply
Cabin supports external power supply, such as the portable power source (5V).
Connect the external power supply to the Type-C port of Cabin (4).

battery pack at the same time.
At this time, the battery icon on the display will become a charging icon , and the
power indicator will turn red, and then turn green after the battery is fully charged.
If an external power supply is connected, but no battery pack is installed, the battery icon

11th Guiyang Street, YEDA,
Yantai 264006, P.R. China
+86-400-998-3088
will become a USB icon and the power indicator will turn green.

(M), and Background calibration (B).
Select the required mode in "Calibration Mode" of the main menu.
Automatic shutter calibration (A): The device will automatically perform shutter
calibration according to the software algorithm. There is no need to close the lens cover (the
internal shutter covers the sensor). Before automatic calibration, there will be a 5s countdown
prompt behind the shutter icon in the status bar, that can be cancelled this calibration with a
short press of the Power button (5) during countdown. In this mode, you can also press the
Power button (5) for manual shutter calibration.
Manual shutter calibration (M): On the home screen, press the Power button (5) briefly to
perform the shutter calibration without closing the lens cap (the internal shutter covers the
sensor).
Background calibration (B): Close the lens cap and short press the Power button (5). A
text prompt will appear on the screen as "Cover lens during calibration!". The background
calibration will start after 2s. Remove the lens cap after calibration.
