Turning “ON” Your System

To turn “ON” the Fish Scout, press the Master Power Switch located in the back of the
carrying case to the “ON“ position. From the front of your unit, press the far right Power
button. When the monitor is turned on, the LED light will turn red which is next to the power
button on the monitor.

You may experience a flashing red & green light when you try to turn on your monitor
and camera. This flashing red light is telling you the internal heater is activated when the
monitor is at -4° F degrees or less. At this point the monitor display is being internally
warmed to allow you to get a good image. Depending on the temperature of the monitor,
a visual image can be fuzzy or not sharp. This will pass quickly. If at all possible, try to
store your camera in a warm location prior to turning on. Your goal will be to never store
your camera in a sub-zero environment overnight.

Operation of the Fish Scout’s Controls

The Fish Scout and Fish Scout systems with DTD use the same menu options. The Fish
Scout has a simple menu display with four different adjustments that can be made by
utilizing the on-screen display. These adjustments can be made to enhance the image on
the display to the user’s preference. (Note: All Fish Scout systems have been pre-set with
factory defaults for normal viewing.) To access the system menu, press the menu key on
