Charging the DrainTracker
The camera can be powered by either being plugged into a
wall outlet or using the internal 12 VDC battery. The battery
can operate up to 6-7 hours with continuous
use. Actual time will vary depending on age of
battery, use of sonde, recording functions, LED
brightness and ambient temperature.
We recommend recharging the battery after
use, or periods of non-use storage. To recharge,
plug the power cord in to a standard wall outlet. A full recharge
takes only a few hours. Overnight charging is ok, but not
needed. Prolonged charging can reduce the battery life.
Maintenance and Care tips
• Don’t use a camera to clear blockages. This can result in a
buckled, kinked or broken push rod, or damaged camera head.
• Inspection systems’ control panels are water resistant, but
not waterproof, be sure to keep it away from spray and avoid
using controls with wet/dirty gloves.
• When pulling the camera out of the line, wipe the push rod
down with a cleaning solution on a rag.

Viewing and Deleting Files
Video and snapshot files can be viewed or deleted two ways:
• using the remote to view/delete files on the DrainTracker’s
monitor (instructions follow, also refer to back page)
• transfer the files from the SD card to a computer, then
view/delete them on the computer (see below)
T o t r a n s f e r f ile s
Power the DrainTracker off. Remove the SD card from its slot
and insert it in to your computer‘s SD port. Working from the
computer you can then view, delete, upload or email files:
• either from the SD card
• OR transfer them to your computer’s storage to ensure you
have a backup and files don’t get deleted
u
The DrainTracker’s system is set to overwrite files when
the SD card is filled, and it will automatically delete
300 MB of the oldest files.
