Side View
Some of the cables have been connected at the factory. See the appropriate sections of the
Equipment Guide for detailed information about each of the connections.
You will typically need to connect only the ROV, tether, strain relief hand controller, and power cord.
1. Connect the female end of the tether connector to the ROV. The connectors have one pin that is
offset towards the center of the connector. Make sure the connectors are clean, align the pins,
and push the connectors together - do not twist the connectors. Secure the locking collar by
screwing the halves together.
2. Connect the braided strain relief from the tether to the rear of the ROV using the retaining
screw. See the strain relief section for more information.
3. Connect the male end of the tether to the User Control Console. When not in use, keep the
tether connectors clean and protected for the best performance and reliability.
4. Connect the hand controller to one of the USB ports on the User Control Console
5. Plug the User Control Console power cord into a conventional power source (100-240 Volts AC,
50,60 Hz). Power can be supplied through a land-based power outlet, generator or battery and
inverter. See the
User Control Console section of the Equipment Guide for power source
requirements.
Power On Tests
If the system does not pass any of the following tests, it should not be used
until the problem is identified and corrected.
The VideoRay MSS includes two circuit safety components.
GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter)
LIM (Line Insulation Monitor)
Testing the Circuit Safety Components
Connect the power cord to a suitable power source.
The GFCI can be found inline in the power cord.
1. Press the GFCI Reset button to turn on the GFCI. The green LED should illuminate.
2. Press the test switch on the GFCI. The GFCI should interrupt power and the green LED should
go out.
