The UNIX-0B is specifically designed for Z-CAM E2-S6, E2-F6, E2-F8, E2-M4, E2C, and TERADEK products. It also works with standard V-mount batteries.

Does the V-mount battery come with the plate?

No, the V-mount battery is sold separately. You will need to provide your own compatible V-mount battery.

How many accessories can be powered at once?

The plate features three D-Tap 14.8V DC power outputs, allowing you to power up to three accessories simultaneously. It also has one USB 5V/2.1A output.

What is the purpose of the breakaway DC cable?

The breakaway DC cable (2-pin Push Pull FGG.0B.302 Male Connector) connects directly to your camera to provide power from the V-mount battery mounted on the plate.

Can I charge my laptop using the USB port?

The USB port provides 5V/2.1A output, which is suitable for charging smartphones, tablets, and other small USB electronic devices. It is generally not sufficient to charge most laptops.

Confirm the USB device is compatible with 5V/2.1A output. Ensure the V-mount battery has sufficient charge. Try a different USB cable.
