Safety
Safety Note
Please read and understand all safety cautions before use.
CAUTION
Do not insert the probe into flammable liquid or gas.
This product is designed for industrial use only. It is not intended for use in hu-
man or other biological inspection.
To clean the probe, wipe with a soft cloth dampened with a mild detergent and
clean water. Do not use abrasive detergents, corrosives (alcohol), or solvents
to clean the probe. Use a high quality lens cleaning fluid and a lint-free swab
to clean the camera and worklight lenses.
Do not disassemble the product, damage to the product and electrical shock
may occur.
Avoid direct sun exposure. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area.
The probe contains sensitive circuitry that controls
the optics and electronics of the camera. Do not
strike the probe or allow it to impact objects
forcefully.
The following liquids have been approved for sub-
mersion of the camera probe: Brake and transmis-
sion fluid, diesel fuel, unleaded gasoline, engine
oil, and CPC hydraulic fluid (46AWS).

Probe Controls
Articulation Joystick
Use the joystick (1) to move the probe neck in four directions as
shown in the illustration below. The thumb is typically used to move
the joystick while the hand grips the control unit. Set the control
unit’s stabilizing base (3) on a firm platform for convenience.
Move the probe slowly and carefully; stop moving in a specific di-
rection if resistance is detected. Keep the probe as straight as pos-
sible and keep the probe neck at 0° articulation when moving into
and out of an inspection area.
Articulation Lock
Move the locking switch (7) to the locked position (to the right), to
freeze the probe neck in place. Move the switch to the left to re-
lease the lock. Do not lock the probe neck at an angle when insert-
ing or removing the probe from the inspection area, this can bind
the probe in the inspection area.
Light Enhancement Button
Press the light enhancement button (5) to highlight the darker areas
of a camera image.
Rotation Button
Use the rotation button (8) to rotate the image 90°.
Anti-Reflection Button
Press the reflection filter button (9) to activate an image filter that
reduces reflections from shiny surfaces and reduces particle arti-
facts on the camera image.

HDV700 Controls
The HDV700 touch-screen offers additional functions and control of
the probe such as recording images and video, split-screen views,
image rotation, and more, as covered in the HDV700 user manual.
Mirror Accessory
The supplied mirror accessory provides a side view camera image.
Use the HDV700 touch-screen to select forward and side camera
views and to control the worklights (see HDV700 user manual).
Notes: Peel off the protective film from the mirror before use. Clean
the mirror with a lint-free swab and a high quality lens cleaner. If
necessary, remove dust and moisture with compressed air.
Side View 70° Mirror Description
1. Reflective mirror
2. Worklight opening. Align the worklight with the opening
3. Threaded probe connection
Mirror Accessory Installation
Remove the camera protective cover by rotating it
counter-clockwise.
Turn the silver alignment sleeve clockwise to move to
the right, exposing the worklight.
#NAS100127; r. AB/87924/87926; en-US 4
Attach the accessory by rotating it clockwise onto the
probe. Align the hole on the accessory to expose the
worklight.
Rotate the silver alignment sleeve to move left or right,
as needed.
Measurement Considerations
• Ensure that the camera lens cap is removed before inserting the
probe into the inspection area.
• After connecting the probe to the HDV700, verify that a clear
camera image is displayed. If not, remove the probe and reat-
tach it ensuring correct orientation and a tight seal.
• Do not force the probe through an inspection area if resistance
is detected. Check the nature of the resistance and clear it as
necessary before continuing.
• When the inspection is complete, remove the probe from the in-
spection area. To avoid probe binding in the inspection area,
keep the probe straight and a 0° probe neck articulation angle.
• Clean the probe with a damp cloth and mild detergent as
needed. Clean the camera, mirror, and worklight lenses using a
high quality cleaning fluid and lint-free swabs.
• Attach the protective lens cap when storing.
• Coil the probe carefully with as wide an arc as is possible when
fitting into its protective case.
