9. Installing a viewfinder
Your Hugyfot housing comes with a stan-
dard viewfinder which is depth rated to
100m (150m with an optional spring up-
grade for your housing). Your housing can
also be equipped with a straight or a 45°
viewfinder. Both viewfinders of-
fer a larger magnification of the
camera viewfinder image and are
depth rated to 70m. To remove a
viewfinder, unlock the retaining nut
of the viewfinder on the inside of the housing. Once the retaining nut has
been removed, the viewfinder can be pulled out of the acrylic window. Before
installing another viewfinder, make sure that the viewfinder is fitted with the
appropriate O-ring and that this O-ring is clean, slightly greased and free of dirt
or cracks. Check the hole in the acrylic window and make sure that it is clean
and free of cracks. Gently push the viewfinder through the hole in the acrylic
window. When installing a 45° viewfinder, see to it that the two little metal
pins on the back of the viewfinder base slide into the 2 holes in the acrylic
window. These pins will keep the base of the 45° viewfinder in place when the
viewfinder is rotated.
(standard, straight or 45°)
10. Using the HugyCheck system
Your Hugyfot underwater housing is equipped with the 'genuine' HugyCheck pre-
dive check system. Introduced in 2008, this system has constantly proven its
value and has been improved continuously. The latest version now comes with
even more functionality. The HugyCheck system is a pre-dive check system that
allows you to check prior to the dive whether the housing has been closed prop-
erly and whether the o-rings are in good condition. A vacuum pump will create
a slight under pressure inside the housing which can be monitored by means of
an LED pressure indicator.
1. On/off & battery status switch
The mini-HugyCheck circuit board is equipped with a power on/off switch (lo-
cated at the right side of the bottom of the camera tray). When the HugyCheck
system is activated, two 'beeps' will sound and both LED's (red and green)
will blink once every 4 seconds. At start up, when the battery is low on power,
the red LED will blink every se cond to indicate that the battery needs to be
replaced.
