f. Install the camera inside the housing as described in the housing instruction manual. Make
sure that the LED cable doesn't interfere with proper camera installation by moving it away
from the camera slot.
g. Once the camera is installed
inside the housing, use the
rubber band to bundle
excess length of the LED
cable in order to ensure it
doesn't interfere with
camera operation or
housing seal (Fig.9).
h. When closing and locking
the housing, make sure that
no cables get caught in the
way, as this might interfere
with a proper housing seal.
Upon closing the housing and prior to diving with it, submerge it in a shallow tub of water or
rinse tank. Carefully look at the housing to make sure no bubbles are escaping from it, no
water is entering and the moisture alarm (if installed inside the housing) doesn't beep.
i. Once the system is completely installed, make sure that the light emitted by the LED's of the
LED Strobe Trigger doesn't escape the LED trigger ports and reflect on your lens port. Turn
on the camera and LED Strobe Trigger. Cover the housing lens port with its port cover (or
any other cover that completely blocks light from entering the lens port) and capture an
image. View the image you've captured and make sure that it's a completely dark one with
no reflections.

a. Setup the entire underwater camera system, including camera, housing, LED Strobe Trigger,

be manually controlled.
c. Turn the LED Strobe Trigger on by sliding the power switch featured on the main unit to the
"ON" position. The indicator light should start flashing once in 2 seconds.
