be illuminated. This indicates that the high intensity infrared LED
lights are ON. By pressing the LIGHT key a second time, the same
LED light next to the LIGHT key will be illuminated green to indicate
the super high intensity blue LED lights are ON. To turn the lighting
system OFF, press the light button a third time. When the lights
are first turned ON, they will be at the lowest level of intensity. To
increase the intensity of either lighting option while the lights are
ON, press the UP arrow key on the right side of the digital keypad.
There are (4) levels of lighting intensity. To decrease the intensity of
the lights while the lights are ON, press the down key on the right
side of the digital keypad (note: when the LED lights are first turned
on, they will always be set at the lowest level of light intensity). The
amount of LED light required will depend on the clarity and amount
of particulates in the water. Darker, stained water will require more
light while clear water will have sufficient light penetration therefore
decreasing the need for LED intensity.
ICE FISHING APPLICATION
The VS820 can be used to entertain the kids or as the perfect tool
to enhance your ice fishing experience. The VS820 can be used to
search for that perfect weed line or locate the crib or rock pile where
fish will generally school To use as a search tool, drill a series of
holes through the ice in the location you’re interested in fishing. The
VS820 is small enough to hold in your arms while walking from hole
to hole. Drop the camera down each hole in search for the best spot
or until you locate fish. Once you’ve located the spot, drill a hole 3
or 4 feet away from the hole you’re actually going to fish in. Set the
VS820 on the ice and lower the camera down the second hole. To
assist in keeping the camera at the desired depth and direction, it
is recommended that a Camera Compass or Ice Arm (purchased
separately) be used. Once you send a lure or bait down and locate
it with the VS820, you’re ready to fish. The depth and direction of the
VS820 can be changed at any time by lowering or raising the camera
and rotating the camera cable between your fingers. The VS820 also
includes a down viewing fin that snaps into the back of the Manta
camera. Once the fin is attached, the camera cable can be inserted
through the cutout at the rear of the fin and locked into place. It
is recommended that you leave about six inches of excess cable,
forming a loop, before locking the cable into place. The camera can
now be lowered into the hole to view what is directly below you. This
can be very helpful while fishing in shallow water.
