Replacing the Desiccant

Your camera includes a high-performance molecular sieve desiccant tablet which is used to

avoid condensation inside the CMOS chamber. Although this desiccant will last a long time

it may eventually need replacing or recharging, in which case please follow the instructions below:

To replace the desiccant, open the desiccant port with the supplied plastic tool and a

screwdriver and take out the used tablet.

To recharge the desiccant, place the tablet in an electric oven at 200ºC for 2 hours. Take the

tablet out the oven (CAUTION: the tablet will be very hot) and allow it to cool down.

Place the recharged tablet back in the camera, replace the port cover and tighten (no need

to over-tighten). Wait 24 hours before connecting the camera again.

We recommend leaving the camera in a warm, dry environment with the port open while you are

recharging the tablets to ensure any remaining moisture can dry out.

You will notice that there is a filter inside the desiccant chamber. The purpose of this is to avoid

contamination of the chamber when the desiccant is being replaced. The filter is very fragile and

should not be touched.
