SKID

Depending on the size of pipe you
are inspecting, you may need to use
the supplied skid so the camera is
centered of off the bottom of the
pipe. Care should be taken so the
skids do not snag in the pipe.
Under normal operating situations,
the camera is used with the smaller protective sleeve in 4" lines. The
full size POD includes a 6" skid for use in larger lines.
The skid supplied should be slipped onto the camera with the lip of
the sleeve at the front. Make sure the camera body is clean and the
set screws tightened only until they touch the camera body. Do not
over tighten as you may damage the camera housing.
MONITOR
Use caution when carrying or storing the POD. Do not drop or
strike the LCD monitor.
The normal operating range of the LCD monitor is 32°F to 104°
F. The picture may not be displayed normally if operated outside
of this range. Do not operate or store in vehicle in temperatures
below -4°F, or exceeding 180°F

SET UP

1. On arrival to the job site and after check-
ing for a properly grounded receptacle, set
the POD in an easily viewable position
where it will not interfere with the inspec-
tion.
The POD can be used in both the vertical
and the horizontal positions.
2. Check and make sure the Light Head
Intensity Control is set at the "low" position.
3. FOR AC VOLTAGE OPERATION: Plug the socket end of the
AC cord into the AC socket on the side of the POD. When using
120 volts AC, care should be taken to ensure that it is plugged
into a properly grounded receptacle to prevent damage to the
unit.
FOR DC VOLTAGE OPERATION: Plug the socket end of the
DC cord into the DC socket on the side of the POD. When using
12 volts DC, the unit plugs into a vehicle's cigarette lighter. For
12VDC, the vehicle engine must be running to operate the cam-
era system.
The AC or DC cord should always be plugged into the POD
first, then into the wall or 12VDC socket. NEVER plug into the
AC socket or DC source first.
4. Ensure the power switch on the LCD monitor is on.

OPERATION

1. Release the latch and open
the monitor case. The lid
acts as a sun shield. Adjust
position of the monitor to the
optimum viewing angle us-
ing the gooseneck and
swivel. NOTE: The monitor
is limited to 355 degrees of
rotation. Do not force the
monitor to swivel beyond
this point or damage could occur.
2. Release the locking pin and drag brake located behind the reel.
Then, slowly push the camera into the pipe. Make sure the spring
does not kink or double back on itself.
3. Once the camera is in the pipe, adjust the lights to a level which
produces the best picture with the least amount of light. This will
vary depending on pipe conditions. You may also adjust the
brightness and contrast controls on the monitor.
