The Scout Aux Box gives camera trappers interested in creating video an easy way to power lights in the field. The Scout Aux Box uses a 5200 mAHr battery to turn on light or other load as commanded by the Scout Camera Box. It can also be powered with an external lead acid battery. The Aux Box is completely weatherproof just like the rest of the Scout products.
You can use more than one Aux Box in a setup if needed. The internal selector switch on the Aux Box tells it which Scout Camera Box auxiliary output configuration to use. If you have all of the Aux Boxes set to 1 they will all turn on and off simultaneously. If you have some set to position 1 and others at position 2 each of the Aux Boxes with the switch in position 1 will follow the configuration from Aux 1 in the camera box, while the Aux Boxes with the switch in position 2 will all follow the configuration from Aux 2 in the camera box. This allows complex lighting and triggering configurations.
