USER INSTRUCTIONS
Setting Up the System for Use
Connect the patch cable to your reel and the controller
first. Press the power button on for 2 seconds. At this
point you should see the Hathorn logo on the screen
while the system boots up.
You will be asked to select the reel that you are using.
Use the enter button to toggle until the correct reel is
chosen. It is important to choose the correct reel as se-
lecting the incorrect reel will affect the footage counter.
Press the counter reset button to confirm your reel
choice. The system should now be ready to use.
Note: If your system uses an external battery always
remove the battery after use or switch off the system
with the silver button. Failure to do so may result in
18V battery damage.
Locating Sonde
Push the “Sonde” button to turn on/off. A symbol will
appear next to the footage counter on screen when the
sonde is on. Sondes are locatable up to ~15ft. depend-
ent upon concrete/steel/cast iron pipe.
Footage Counter Reset
Push the “Counter” button for 3 seconds and the coun-
ter will flash, let it go and the count will reset.
Camera Lights
Camera lights can be controlled using the light up/
down buttons on the front of the monitor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Skids or sleeves should ALWAYS be used to protect the
camera head. Depending on the size of the pipe you are in-
specting, you may need to use a skid, so the camera is cen-
tered or off the floor of the line. Care should be taken so the
skids do not snag in the line.
Under normal operating situations, the camera is used with a
smaller protective sleeve in lines under 4” in diameter or a
larger grooved skid in 4” lines and larger.
1. Slowly push the camera into the pipe and negotiate the
camera into position to feed down the pipe making sure
the flex neck does not kink or double back on itself.
2. Push the camera slowly and carefully during the in-
spection taking note of the pipe condition for possible
hazards that may entangle or damage the camera on en-
try or retrieval.
3. When negotiating a corner, care should be taken not to
butt the nose of the camera against the sidewall with
any force. It would be better to let the camera “work”
its way around the corner. If resistance is encountered
when turning the corner and there are no visible signs
of blockage, turning the push rod or pulling the camera
back and forth sometimes helps
4. Should resistance become extreme, or the camera get
entangled or stuck, slowly push it back and forth to
free it. Sometimes turning the push rod may also help.
If the camera is visible, you may be able to free it with
your hand or some other means.
5. Upon completion of the inspection and retrieval of the
camera, it may be necessary to ‘manipulate’ the camera
around the initial bend (clean out) in the pipe with a
pole or other device if required.

6. NEVER use the camera to unclog a drain or clear de-
bris in the pipe. Doing so can cause damage to the
camera head or lens.
7. NEVER force the camera down a pipe as this may
cause a kinked cable which will require expensive
repairs.
8. NEVER use a pressure washer to clean any part of
the system. High pressure water can cause degrada-
tion of the electronic parts causing damage.
9. NEVER unspool all of the rod from a reel. Al-
ways leave a few turns of rod on the reel to aid
with respooling.

LOCATING THE 512 Hz SONDE
Insert the sonde in the drain and locate it while it is
still just in view at the drain or duct entrance. Hold the
locator vertical directly over the sonde with the anten-
na in line with the sonde. Adjust the locator sensitivity
so the bar graph reads between 60% and 80%. Push
the sonde along the pipe to the desired area.
1. Approach the peak of the signal working perpen-
dicular to the pipe. Move the locator backwards
and forwards and stop when the bar graph indi-
cates a Peak.
2. Push the camera 4-6 ft. further, pinpoint, and
mark the position. Repeat this pinpoint procedure
at similar intervals along the line of the drain or
duct until the survey is completed.
3. Most locators will automatically display the depth
of a located sonde providing the locator is correct-
ly oriented and positioned above the sonde.
