Video Device

Operational temperature range

ADC-VDB780B

3°F to 131°F (-16°C to 55°C)

ADC-V731B

-4°F to 113°F (-20°C to 45°C)

Temperature notifications

Users will receive a low-temperature notification when the internal temperature of the device drops below its minimum threshold, and a high-temperature notification when the temperature exceeds the maximum threshold.

If the video device's internal temperature exceeds the minimum or maximum temperature, it will automatically turn off to prevent damage to the device. The device will automatically turn back on after its internal temperature is within the operational temperature range.

Note: This notification is enabled by default.

Cold weather performance

Low temperatures are known to reduce the capacity of lithium-ion batteries, so users in colder climates may experience shorter battery cycles. If there is a quick drop in ambient temperature the battery will deplete faster, and the device may not accurately reflect the remaining capacity. In sustained colder climates it is recommended to recharge the device more frequently.

Note: In the case of a low-temperature cutoff, it will take time for the video device's internal temperature to reach the functioning supported temperature.
