SeeSnake
The Count Plus interface allows you to set up and mod-
ify a number of important parameters for use with your
SeeSnake System. These include:
• System Time
• System Date
• Reel and Cable
• Units of Measure
You will also need to be familiar with:
• Setting Up Text Slides
• Creating a New Slide
• Editing an Existing Slide
• Choosing a Slide for Display
• Turning Slide Display On or Off
• Deleting a Slide
These are described in the separate Count Plus manual.
Please read the complete Count Plus manual and ensure
you are familiar with the operation of the Count Plus
when doing an inspection with a SeeSnake System.
Operating Instructions
Always wear eye protection to protect your eyes
against dirt and other foreign objects.
When inspecting drains that might contain haz-
ardous chemicals or bacteria, wear appropriate
protective equipment, such as latex gloves, goggles,
face shields or respirators to prevent burns and
infections.
Do not operate this equipment if operator or ma-
chine is standing in water. Operating machine while
in water increases the risk of electrical shock.
Rubber soled, non-slip shoes can help prevent slip-
ping and electric shock, especially on wet sur-
faces.
Follow operating instructions to reduce the risk of
injury from electrical shock and other causes.
1. Make sure all equipment is properly set up.
2. Place the camera head into the reel's guide hoop and
turn the CCU's power on. You should see the words
"Count Plus " and a version number on the monitor
screen. Leave the camera head in the guide hoop
until this start-up screen disappears (approx. 5 sec.).
If you do not see an image on the monitor, check to

make sure its power is turned ON and it is set to
the correct source (see CCU manual).
In very cold weather, the camera may take a few
moments to warm up when first turned ON. This is
especially true if the camera has been stored in a cold
environment for several hours. When you turn ON the
system, you may notice a "noisy" picture for a few mo-
ments. This is natural while the camera warms up.
NOTICE
The camera head can get HOT! When fin-
ished with your inspection or if taking a prolonged
break in the middle of the inspection, turn OFF the
system.
If the camera sits in a pipe, or any enclosed environ-
ment, heat will build up. This may lead to the camera head
overheating which will cause fuzzy lines to appear on
the monitor. In the event this happens, turn off the system,
remove the camera from the pipe (or enclosed environ-
ment) and let the camera head cool for 10 to 15 minutes.
Running water into the line will also help cool the camera
head. Always use the minimum illumination required to
maximize picture quality and to avoid excessive heat
build-up.
Ask customers what is in the line or what the line is
used for prior to putting the camera into the line.
Avoid lines containing harsh solvents, chemicals, an elec-
trical charge or excessive heat.
Performing A Pipe Inspection
Inspecting a pipe is done by pushing the camera into
the pipeline gradually while observing the monitor.
1. When pushing, the end of your stroke should be as
close to the entry as possible. Standing too far back
(with an excess of cable between your hands and the
entry) may cause the cable to fold on itself outside the
entry and damage the cable (Figure 27) .
