Turn the end-cap in
a clockwise direction
(when looking at the
hydrophone) until it
becomes too hard to
turn by hand.
STEP 5
Slide the plastic internal casing into the Outer
Cylinder, battery end first, until the first threads
are inside the outer cylinder. Ensure that the
O-rings remain
properly seated in
their grooves as
the end-cap is
moved into the
outer cylinder.
STEP 4
Insert the other steel rod into the Comm Key Hole on the end-cap and hold on to the rod
– it will slide
through the case and potentially damage something below. Make sure the rod is fully inserted or
damage may occur to the Comm Key Hole.
STEP 7
Place a hand on the back of the receiver to hold it in
place.
Apply pressure to the rod in the endcap so it turns in a
clockwise direction when you are facing the hydrophone.
Continue moving the rod until the end cap touches the
edge of the outer cylinder. Do not over-tighten the case
pieces together or they may be damaged.
Remove the steel rods from the VR2Tx case.
Place the VR2Tx on a clean, flat surface so the hydrophone
(tapered end) is hanging over the edge enough that the large hole
is past the edge of the surface. DO NOT let the receiver fall off
the surface. TIP: A non-slip surface, such as a rubber mat, helps
keep the VR2Tx in place while closing it.
Insert one steel rod into the hole that runs through the diameter of
the case near the flat end of the VR2Tx. Position the rod so the
majority of the rod is on the right side of the case. This helps
brace the receiver while the case is being closed.
