Use with SeeSnake
Inspection Equipment
The micro CA-300 Inspection Camera can
also be used with various SeeSnake Inspec -
tion Equipment and is specifically designed to
be used with the microReel, microDrain™
and the nanoReel Inspection Systems. When
used with these types of equipment, it retains
all of the functionality described in this manual.
The micro CA-300 Inspection Camera can
also be used with other SeeSnake Inspection
Equipment for viewing and recording only.
For use with SeeSnake Inspection Equip -
ment, the imager head and any cable exten-
sions must be removed. For the microReel,
microDrain™, nanoReel and similar equip-
.
ment, see the operator's manual for informa-
tion on proper connection and use. For other
SeeSnake Inspection Equipment (typically a
reel and monitor), an adapter must be used to
connect the micro CA-300 Inspection Camer -
a to a Video-Out port on the SeeSnake Inspec -
tion Equipment. When connected in this man-
ner, the micro CA-300 Inspection Camera
will display the camera view and can be used
for recording.
When connecting to SeeSnake Inspection
Equipment (microReel, microDrain™, or nano -
Reel), align the interconnect module con-
nected to your reel with the cable connector on
the micro CA-300 Inspection Camera, and
slide it straight in, seating it squarely. (See
