Viewing time will vary depending on the condition of the
battery as well as the amount of time the underwater viewing
lights are on and how frequently the camera is being rotated.
A 500 mA DC wall charger is supplied to recharge the battery
to full capacity. Recharging the battery to full capacity after
every use is recommended. For further battery charging
information, please see the “Battery Charging” section of
this manual.
GETTING STARTED
Remove your VS460 monitor from the soft-pack by first
opening the front of the case. This is accomplished by pulling
the flap at the top and sides of the soft-pack until the Velcro
strips separate. Reach into the soft-pack on top of the
monitor and grab the molded inset handle about halfway
back. Pull the monitor forward tilting the top towards you
until it comes out of the soft-pack case. Place the monitor
on a flat surface and open the battery compartment door
located on the front lower section of the monitor case. This is
done by gently applying downward pressure on the grooved
finger inset at the top of the battery door and pulling for-
ward. Connect the battery leads to the battery terminals i.e.
- red fused lead to battery positive and black lead to battery
negative. Replace battery door and place monitor back into
padded soft-pack case. Close front of case by re-attaching
Velcro strips. Turn the soft-pack to the backside and remove
the cable reel from the back pouch. Reach into the lower
left corner of the rear pouch and undo the Velcro door. This
allows access to the plug-in port for the camera. Plug the
camera cable into the upper plug-in port. Take notice that the
plug-in is not round but has a flat side. This is designed to
assist in lining up the pins with the sockets in the plug and
help eliminate the bending of connector pins. Do not force the
plug into the receptacle, you may have it mis-aligned. There
will be some resistance when plugging in the camera due to
the molded seal rings located on the plug, however, if lined
up properly, this should go together quite easily. Please take
note that the lower plug-in port marked ACC is not relevant

convenient cable storage is provided with the system.
The 5.5 inch black and white CRT monitor has excellent
resolution allowing viewing with great clarity and detail.
Controls for adjusting vertical hold, contrast, and brightness
are located at the rear of the monitor behind the rubber plug.
Adjustments can be made by removing the plug and rotating
the knob either clockwise or counter clockwise to obtain the
desired picture. The rubber plug should remain in place in the
recessed area at all times to prevent moisture from entering
the monitor housing.
The VS460 has a video-out jack located at the rear of the
housing under the rubber plug in the same recessed area
as the monitor adjustment controls. The video-out jack can
be utilized by purchasing a cable of desired length with male
RCA jacks from a local retailer of video or audio equipment.
The cable can be plugged into either a larger monitor or T.V.
for a larger viewing image or can be used to record onto a
VCR or camcorder. To record onto a camcorder you must
have a camcorder with a video-in port.
A high quality padded soft-pack carrying case incorporates
a built in collapsible viewing shroud to enhance viewing
in bright light conditions. The front of the soft-pack can be
opened to allow for viewing when not exposed to harsh light
(i.e. when viewing in an enclosed ice house). The versatile
soft-pack system provides protection from the elements as
well as allows for the easy storage of all camera accessories.
A draw string pouch on the back of the soft-pack holds the
camera cable. An additional zippered camera pouch with a
quick release clip is located on the right side of the soft-pack
for camera storage. A cable cleat for setting camera depth is
located at the left rear corner of the soft-pack. This eliminates
the need for an additional ice arm and clip to hold the cable.
The battery included with the system is a 12 volt, 7amp hour
sealed lead acid electrolyte battery that will provide approxi-
mately 8.5 hours of viewing time when fully charged.
