can freely spin.
1B. Inspect for water inside the camera housing:
Check the thruster telltales and look for signs of oil
leakage.
1C. Inspect the entire system:
Look for signs of damage, loose, or worn parts.
2. Connecting & Powering On
WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect cables
while the system is powered.
CAUTION: Follow the steps in order when
starting the system.
- Remove tether caps and connect the female end of the tether to
the ROV. - Connect the male end of the double-ended connector to the
Operator Control Console (OCC). - Connect the tether to the connector.
- Inspect all connectors to ensure they are seated properly.
- Connect hand controller and keyboard to OCC ports.
- Confirm ROV POWER MAINS is fully depressed.
- Connect OCC power cord to power source.
- Turn on OCC, then ROV POWER MAINS.
- Start Pro 5 control software.
3. Pre Dive Check List
- Verify thrusters respond correctly to controller inputs.
- Test main camera tilt and focus.
- Check LED light function.
- Deploy vehicle and adjust ballast for positive buoyancy.
- Enable auto controls (Auto-Depth, Auto-Heading).
- Begin operations and recording with desired views.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What should I do if I encounter an issue with the thrusters
during inspection?
A: If there are issues with the thrusters, such as worn blades
or restricted movement, contact customer support for assistance and

Connecting & Powering On
WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect cables while system is powered. CAUTION: ALL ROV submerged connections must be terminated. CAUTION: Follow these steps in order when starting the system.
Connecting the System
1. Remove the tether caps and connect the female end of the tether and strain relief to the ROV. See figure 2B. (Store caps in a secure location)
2. If not already connected, connect the male end of the double ended connector 26A to the Operator Control Console (OCC). 26
3. Connect the male end of the tether to the female end of the double ended connector. 26B
4. Remove the ROV float block bolts and remove the float block.
5. Inspect all 5-pin and 9-pin connectors to ensure they are seated and then Replace and secure the float block. See figure 2C. CAUTION: If the connectors are
not fully seated, clean, lubricate, and reseat them.
6. Connect the hand controller to the OCC controller USB port. 24 CAUTION: Do not connect more than one hand controller to the system at a time.
7. Connect the keyboard to the OCC keyboard USB port. 25 8. Confirm that the ROV POWER MAINS is fully depressed.
9. Connect the OCC power cord to the OCC and a power source. 18
ON
10. Turn on the OCC.
19
11. Turn on the ROV POWER MAINS.
20
Twist the Red Power Mains button clockwise.
12. Start the Pro 5 control software. Pro 5
2A
Attach the strain relief bolt through the eye hole of the strain relief cable. 34
2B
Test the strain relief to verify the stress is on the cable not the tether or connector. 35
2C
If the connectors are separated, do not place the system in water. Clean, lubricate and reseat the connectors.

3 Pre Dive Check List
Using the Controller / Testing the System:
1. Verify all thrusters respond to the controller inputs as expected. M J 2. Verify main camera tilts all the way up and all the way down. F G
3. Verify main camera focus – in and out. H I 4. Verify LED light function. Both LED modules dim until off and increase until full
illumination. E
5. Deploy Vehicle and adjust ballast. NOTE: It is okay to lower the vehicle using the tether
To ballast the ROV: Add or remove ballast weights 12 until the ROV is slightly positively buoyant. Typically, this is achieved when the top of the float block is even with the water surface.
6. Enable auto controls (they will turn green when enabled).
Auto-Depth
Auto-Heading
7. Begin operations and recording.
