Operation

  • Turn on the borescope as well as the locator.
  • Before placing the transmitter in the target location, move the locator to check the signal strength (see “Quick calibration”). Also check the depth measurement icon as well as the battery level.
  • The lamp next to the power button for the transmitter should glow in green. If the lamp glows in red, the battery voltage is insufficient and the instrument is not ready to work. The battery will last no longer than 15 minutes when the red lamp starts  lowing.PCE Instruments PCE-VE 380N Locator Industrial Borescope - longer
