Tips

The camera lens has right-handed threads. Turn the camera lens clockwise, when viewed from the front of the ROV, in order to install it.

Before proceeding to the next step, connect the ROV to the control panel and test the camera focus function to make sure the camera focuses smoothly through the entire focus range and the focus is clear at both extremes.
