3. Periodically run your fingers over the entire length of the cable,feeling for nicks or
other cable damage. A damaged cable should be returned to the
factory for repair. (See the Service section of this manual.)
4. As a precautionary measure, dry off your monitor after it gets wet from
rain or boat spray.
5. Never tug on fishing line that accidentally gets wrapped around the camera cable. Line
can cut and damage the cable..
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW FAR CAN I SEE?
Naturally, the clearer the water, the farther you can see. As a general rule, the camera can
see twice as far as the human eye in water - meaning that if you can see 3 feet down you
will be able to see approximately 6 feet in front of the camera. But this is just a rule of
thumb, and all bodies of water will vary. For anglers studying bottom structure, 2 feet of
visibility is sufficient for underwater viewing.
WHEN DO I USE THE MULTI-COLOR LIGHTS?
The Multi-Color lights in your DT camera are designed for use in low-light situations.
Turn the power switch to the "ON/LIGHT" position for maximum visibility in low light. The
Multi-Color lights will provide a minimum of twice the visibility of traditional infrared
lights in darkness.
HOW DO I STEER THE CAMERA?
For open-water viewing in the direction of travel use the Front-viewing Fin. Slowly troll
(less than 2 mph) or drift along the structure you intend to view. With the Front-viewing
Fin, the camera will face the boats direction of travel. The opposite holds true when using
the Back-viewing Fin which positions the camera for viewing in the direction opposite
from the boats travel. (The Back-viewing Fin, not included with the unit, is available from
dealers or online at www.aquavu.com.)
CAN I SPLICE THE CAMERA CABLE TO OBTAIN MORE LENGTH?
No. Attempting to splice in additional cable violates the waterproof integrity of the camera
and cable, voiding the warranty.
CAN I ATTACH MY CAMERA TO A DOWNRIGGER?
Yes, by using the Cam-Rigger accessory. You can attach your camera to your
downrigger cable at any depth, allowing you to watch your lure - given
adequate water clarity. “cam-rigger is available through dealers or at
www.aquavu.com.
HOW FAST CAN I TROLL WITH MY CAMERA?
It depends on depth, and also on the length of cable you have out, which
determines water resistance or "drag." The deeper you go, with more cable
out, the more drag there will be, requiring slower travel for good viewing.
Generally, for best viewing, we recommend going less than 2 miles per hour.
Remember, the slower you go, the more detail you will see.
