PLAYING MEDIA FILES Press the MENU key, then enter the FILE STORAGE OPTIONS menu. Select the date on which files were recorded and then highlight the file you wish to play and press the RIGHT ARROW key on the key- pad or enter key on the keyboard.
INSPECTION PROCEDURE Skids or sleeves should ALWAYS be used to protect the camera head. De- pending on the size of the pipe you are inspecting, you may need to use a skid, so the camera is centered or off the floor of the line. Care should be taken so the skids do not snag in the line.
LOCATING THE SONDE SIGNAL (512HZ & 640HZ) Insert the sonde in the drain and locate it while it is still just in view at the drain or duct entrance. Hold the locator vertical directly over the sonde with the antenna in line with the sonde. Adjust the locator sensitivity so the bar graph reads between 60% and 80%.

When winding the cable back onto the reel after an inspection, it is good practice to use a cloth to wipe off any debris. Hathorn® also recommends the use of genuine Hathorn® reel covers. Hathorn® manufacturers it’s reel covers from in- dustrial grade reinforced vinyl and will stop liquids from dripping from your equipment.
