lessly transmit real time video or still images for viewing or recording. The

era tipped probe. All of the probes are 1m (3.28 ft.) long, flexible-obedient

include HVAC inspection, automotive inspection, building, construction, ma-
chinery, boat, and aircraft inspection.

magnetic tip is used to pick up small metal objects; the mirror tip is used to
view at a 90° angle and the hook is used to grab onto objects. The DCS400
