OPERATING THE SYSTEM
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
To reduce the risk of equipment damage, please read the following instructions prior to operating
the system.
Ensure that all of the equipment is connected per the instructions included
in the previous SETUP & INSTALLATION CHAPTER.
PROCEDURE: Operating the System
The MPlus+ system is controlled by the PCU (power control unit). The PCU contains all of the
controls for the system including system power, camera, lightring, recording, video titling, and
observation coding. Ensure that the
AC power cord or optional DC power cord is connected to
the Control Unit. An internal Li-Ion rechargeable battery can also be used.
If a power cord is used, verify that the battery “Charging” Yellow Light or “Charged” Green
Light indication illuminates on the PCU.
1. Ensure that all of the equipment is connected as described in the SET-UP &
INSTALLATION chapter.
2. Prior to turning on the system, ensure that all of the cable is inside of the basket/
coiler because the firmware assumes this is the case when displaying the footage
distance.
3. On the Power Control Unit (PCU), press the ON/OFF power button to cycle the
system ON.
• Ensure that the system power LED is illuminated blue.
• Verify that the LCD display powers up and displays a video image.
• 20 seconds after powering on the system, verify that the DVR is operational by
pressing the [MENU/OK] button in the center of the oval. Once the menu appears,
press the [STOP/BACK] button to remove the menu from the screen.
4. Ensure that a clear picture is evident on the screen prior to placing the camera in
the pipeline.
5. Place the mini camera into the pipe to be inspected.
6. Refer to the additional SYSTEM OPERATION – SYSTEM INTERFACE section for
additional functionality including Video/Audio Recording, Text Writing, Observation
Coding, etc.
