3 SAFETY FIRST!
The following are some safety tips that may prevent injury to you as the operator and those
around you, or damage to the VideoRay submersible.
3.1 USE COMMON SENSE
These first instructions appeal to common sense:
1) Read the safety and operating instructions before operating the VideoRay.
2) Retain this manual and other safety and operating instructions for future reference.
3) Heed all warnings printed on the system components and in the manual.
4) Follow the operating and maintenance instructions.
5) Be aware of and alert to potential hazards in and around water, including weather
conditions, and follow standard water safety practices.
3.2 ELECTRICAL AND VIDEORAY SAFETY
1) Protect the Power Supply / Controller from splashes and immersion in water when
open. The controller is sealed when closed, and splash resistant when open.
2) Always plug the system into a grounded receptacle.
3) There are No User Serviceable Parts Inside the power supply.
technicians or VideoRay personnel should perform electrical servicing.
4) Do not subject the VideoRay to impact. The camera, lights, and electronic components
may be damaged by an impact.
5) Never operate the lights for more than 60 seconds out of water. Never operate the
thrusters for more than 20 seconds out of water. Your VideoRay is designed for
submerged operation and requires water to cool the lights and thrusters.
6) Do not stress or kink the tether or bend it tighter than the minimum bend diameter,
which is about 3 inches. Do not allow the tether to be deployed over sharp edges or
rough surfaces.
3.3 PERSONAL SAFETY
Be aware of the safety of those around you!
1) Beware of swimmers or boaters. The VideoRay and tether can pose a hazard to
swimmers, divers, and small craft, as well as persons in and around the operating area.
Obtain the acknowledgment of those around you prior to launch. Make sure everyone
within VideoRay's range of operation is aware the vehicle is being deployed.
2) Keep your operating area neat and free of accident causing clutter.
3) Keep fingers and objects clear of the thruster propellers.
