Hold the body of the VR2AR securely in place. A strap wrench on the
body of the VR2AR can help with gripping the receiver.
Insert the steel rod into the Bluetooth Activator Hole on the end of the
receiver and hold on to the rod
– it can slide right through the hole and
potentially damage something below. Make sure the rod is fully
inserted into the hole
– damage may occur to the Bluetooth Activator
Hole if the rod is partially inserted.
Apply pressure to the rod to turn it in a counter-clockwise direction
(when facing the hydrophone).
Continue to rotate the rod, and therefore the end-cap, until turning
become easier.
NOTE: The Float attachment bracket may rotate on the case.
STEP 3
Remove the steel rod from the VR2AR case and set it aside.
Continue by hand twisting the end-cap in a counter-clockwise direction
until the end-cap and outer cylinder separate.
STEP 4
Slide the end-cap and cylinder apart until the end has cleared the
cylinder. Be very careful not to damage the threads on the end-cap
or the VR2AR won’t close and seal properly.
STEP 5
WARNING
The internal casing surrounding the electronics is not
waterproof. Water, even condensation from a humid
environment, will enter the case and damage the electronics.
WARNING
DO NOT impact the threads on the end-cap or they will dent
and prevent the VR2AR case from closing. See section
8.2.1 for tips on thread care.
