to the VS460. This is a dead port and you should not attempt
to plug the camera into this location. Once the camera is
plugged into the monitor, you can replace the camera cable
into the rear storage pouch and pull the drawstring for a snug
fit. You are now ready to head to the lake. Once you reach
your destination, remove the cable reel from the rear stor-
age pouch and remove the required length of cable. Open
the front of the soft-pack so that the monitor and keypad are
fully exposed. Turn the camera power on by depressing the
ON button on the keypad. The orange light to the right of the
ON button will light up and within seconds the monitor will
come on. NOTE: When you turn the system ON the camera
will automatically rotate to the center forward position and
the LED’s will blink three times and then turn off. Lower the
camera into the water to the desired depth and secure the
cable in the notch of the cable cleat located at the rear left
corner of the soft-pack case as you face the monitor. As with
all CRT displays, bright light can washout the display making
viewing difficult. If this occurs, rotate the system so that the
light source is not directly on the monitor screen. In extreme
bright light conditions it may be necessary to use the view-
ing shroud to shield the monitor from the light source. To use
the viewing shroud, remove the protective cap from the face
of the shroud located on the front of the padded soft-pack.
Grab the face of the view shroud and pull towards you until all
three collapsible parts are fully extended. The shroud is not
fully extended until you hear the telltale click of each part as
it locks into place. This clicking locks the shroud into position
so it won’t collapse on its own. To collapse the shroud to its
original position, push on the face of the shroud until all three
parts collapse inside each other and then the replace the
protective cover.
The depth of field, the distance the camera can see under-
water, depends on the clarity of the water and available light
at the depth the camera is used. In extremely clear water the
depth of field will be significantly greater than in cloudy or
muddy water. The VS460 utilizes ultra high intensity LED’s
to maximize viewing distance. The combination of these
high output LED’s and the incorporation of our “Darkwater
Technology” result in a state of the art system that maxi-
mizes clarity & viewing distance. The lighting system can be
activated by depressing the key labeled “LIGHT”. When the
underwater lighting system is turned ON, an orange LED will
be lit next to the “LIGHT” key.
ICE FISHING APPLICATION
A suggestion on how best to utilize your viewing system
while ice fishing. Drill two holes 3 to 4 feet apart. Lower your
bait into one hole while placing the camera in the other hole
pointing in the direction of your fishing lure. Set the depth
and angle of viewing so that your lure appears in the middle
of the viewing screen. If the bait drifts from the center of the
viewing screen, depress the direction arrow keys located
on the monitor to rotate the camera. A down viewing strap
(included) can be attached to the bottom of the camera for
the purpose of viewing from above. Create a loop in the cable
and insert the cable into the slot in the strap. Slide the cable
all the way back into the slot until the cable is seated at the
end of the slot. You can adjust the viewing angle by
the size of the loop in the cable.
OPEN WATER APPLICATION
The VS460 camera features an integrated fin for use in
open water. The built in fin helps stabilize as well as steer
the camera in the correct direction. An additional weight
must be attached to the camera for use in open water. The
camera can be used at slow speeds while drifting or while
under propulsion from a trolling motor or outboard motor. The
camera can be rotated within the housing for viewing forward
or rotated to view out the sides or back. The camera can be
attached to a down rigger cable (additional ballast weight not
required) by attaching the down viewing strap facing to the
front or forward of the camera housing. This is pointing the
opposite direction from the fin or opposite of how the strap
is utilized for down viewing. By using the down viewing strap
