Sea & Sea VX2000 Housing.
The EM253
will mount to the Sea & Sea VX2000 housing
on a dovetail bracket (see photo). This
bracket will slide into the same slot as the
carrying handle (which cannot be use at the
same time as the monitor) and secured by use
of a thumb screw.
EM253 Connection to Housing
The EM253 will connect to the housing via the 2-pin EO-type connector. The male
connector on the cable will mate with an easily identifiable female bulkhead connector
on the housing (see photo). If necessary, use water or lubricant for easier mating of
the connectors.
While you may see a hole on both ends of the bulkhead
connector, only one is big enough to accept the cable
connector. Also, the connectors are ‘wet mating’ connectors, so
there is no need to plug/unplug them only when dry.

Caution
:
If you are not using the EM253 monitor for any reason, do not plug the
video wires into your camera.
ü
Verify operation
by turning on the camera. If properly connected, the monitor will
automatically turn on and display an image. You may have to wait 3-4 seconds
before an image will appear.
