Camera Unit
CFWF50A
The on/off switch and the USB
Type-C charging socket are located at the back of the camera
behind the screw-on aluminium cap.
To maintain the camera’s IP67 rating, the camera must not be
disassembled. There are no user serviceable items inside the
camera and disassembly will void the warranty.
There is a rubber O-ring on the body of the camera that provides a
seal for the back cap that in turn protects the on/off switch and USB
charge socket. It is important that this O-ring remains clean and in
good condition.
The IP67 rating is only when the back cap is securely screwed
on and the rubber O-ring is in good condition.
Turn On/Off – Slide the switch at the rear of the camera to turn the
camera on or off. When turned on the front LEDs will illuminate and
a rear power indication LED will also illuminate.
Charge – Connect the supplied power supply. While the camera is
charging the red LED at the rear will illuminate. Once fully charged
the red LED at the rear will turn off.
Note: When the camera is screwed on to fish sticks (push-pull rods)
and in use, take care not to twist the sticks (rod) too far anti-
clockwise as this may result in the camera unscrewing and
becoming disconnected from the stick (rod).
Gooseneck
Point the FERRET camera in any direction with the addition of the
flexible gooseneck. It’s approximately 150mm long (6”) and can
attach to fish sticks (push pull rods).
Rod/Hook/Magnet
Connect the 150mm (6”) rod to the front of the
camera and use the hook or magnet to pull
back a cable or retrieve a metallic object.
Thread Adaptors
The Ferret camera thread is ¼”-20UNC. For
compatibility with the majority of fish sticks (push pull
rods), thread adaptors are included to suit 8-32 threaded fish sticks
(most common thread type in USA) as well as 5mm and 6mm
metric threaded fish sticks.
