1. Introduction
The Super SeaSpy underwater video camera is a compact, high resolution,
full colour camera with integral low voltage lighting. It is built to survive in
the harsh underwater inspection environment and has been designed to be
compact, rugged and provide a high quality colour picture.
The camera has an integrated ring of white LEDs providing uniform
illumination across the viewing area. A sensor is incorporated into the camera
face which provides feedback to control the lighting intensity so optimum
picture quality is achieved regardless of the reflectivity of the work surfaces.
The light can also be adjusted manually if required. To prevent damage from
warm environments the LEDs also incorporate an automatic thermal cut-out.
The Super SeaSpy has an internal focus adjustment which allows the focal
range to be factory set at values between 50mm and infinity. The camera
power supply provides excellent protection for the efficient operation of the
camera module. Fitted with an integral video line driver the Super SeaSpy
compensates attenuation of the video signal when used over various umbilical
lengths. This line driver is adjustable and is protected against over-voltage.
A water corrected port is fitted to optimise the picture quality. This water
corrected view port results in a camera that provides a crisp picture during
close proximity viewing in murky water.

3. Installing the SeaSpy
3.1. General Guidelines
If the camera is to be used as part of an ROV setup then care should be
taken during the installation to ensure that any chance of damaging it is kept
to a minimum. While it has a very robust housing it should not be mounted in
such a manner which results in it protruding excessively from the ROV body.
If such a setup is desired a suitable guard should be considered which would
keep any chance of severe impact to a minimum.
The camera should be installed using non-metallic clamps so that any
effects of galvanic corrosion are kept to a minimum. If metallic clamps are
unavoidable they should be insulated from the camera body by means of
rubber or plastic strips of at least 3mm in thickness and extending 3mm
beyond the clamp boundary. They should also be painted or lacquered with
at least three coatings.
3.2. Test Cable Wiring
To connect the camera to a computer for testing or operation it will be
necessary to construct an appropriate test cable. The pin-out diagram for
units fitted with the Tritech 6 pin standard water block is shown in the
specification section, for any other connectors it will be necessary to refer to
the documentation that was provided with the camera to establish the correct
wiring scheme.
To connect to a computer it will be necessary to provide the camera a
minimum of three connections:
1. DC Power
2. DC Ground
3. Connection to a PC video capture card, either external or internal
