Why does my camera turn off automatically while the battery is charged ?
Symptoms :
Have you just recharged the battery of your Cambox V3, but when you turn it on, the camera automatically turns off after 5 to 10 seconds?
Origin :
When turning on your Cambox, the firmware, the camera’s embedded software tests the validity of your memory card.
If it fails, the camera cannot store your videos, so it turns off automatically.
Solution :
To solve this problem, be sure to check these points:
✅ the memory card has enough free space
✅ the accepted capacity is from 4 GB mini to 64 GB max
✅ the memory card is compatible and in good working order
How do I free up space on my memory card ?
Most of the time, it is the cause of this issue. Just free up space on your memory card to return to normal operation of your camera.
To delete your video files, remove the memory card from your Cambox and place it on your computer
Open the DCIM folder, you will find your video files, which you can delete to free up space.
