INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing General Tools
& Instruments’ PCS55 Compact
Rugged Video Inspection System (The
PalmScope
™
). Please read this user’s
manual carefully and thoroughly before
using the instrument.
The PalmScope is more than just the
smallest full-featured video inspection
system available today. It is also built to
survive in the harsh environments of
plumbing and automotive maintenance
and repair—not to mention any unusual
situations a do-it-yourselfer might
subject it to. The unit’s thermoplastic
rubber (TPR) housing and integral LCD
are certified “drop-proof” to a height of
1m (3.4 ft.). The system can be operated
with one hand, leaving the other hand
free to use tools.
The grip and LCD get their input from a
camera-tipped probe. The probe that
comes with the PalmScope is 2 ft.
(0.6m) long and has a camera-head
diameter of 9mm (0.35 in.), making it
ideal for inspecting gasoline engine
cylinders through the spark plug hole.
