• The DCS1800-TR Transmitting Probe Handle/Controller, which enables

video and images captured by the P16PIP probe to be viewed on the
console of a DCS1800ART system

To attach the probe & reel set

to the DCS1600 or H16 console, or to the

DCS1800 handle/controller, first remove the red protective cap from the Probe
connector (see bottom of Fig. 1). Then pull back the metal collar of the
connector to expose the alignment key with a red dot. Keeping the collar pulled
back, align this dot with the red dot on the connector of your borescope console
or handle/controller and push the two connectors together. To secure the
connection, release the collar and turn it clockwise until tight. The following
figure shows the final attachment step for an H16 (DCS1600) Console.

At the top of the P16PIP is a metal bracket designed to securely hold the H16
(DCS1600) console. If you are using the probe with a DCS1800 or DCS1800ART
system, General suggests 

not

mounting the system’s transmitting

handle/controller or receiving console. Both components can be placed
anywhere convenient—as long as it is dry. Neither component is waterproof 
or water-resistant.
