Soft Case
The VS380 incorporates a padded soft case with a collapsible view
shroud. The face of the padded case can be opened for a full view of the
entire monitor or the case can be left closed and the collapsible view
shroud opened for viewing in brighter conditions.
Battery and Charger
The sealed 7.2 amp 12VDC rechargeable battery provides plenty of
power for a full day of fishing. The included charger is matched with the
battery for ease of recharging in-between uses.
To charge the battery, remove the negative and positive power leads
attached to the battery. Attach the power leads with alligator clips to the
appropriate battery posts. If the battery is completely dead it may take up

to 14-18 hours to reach full charge. The output of the charger is 500 mA or ½ amp. Do not leave the charger on for longer
periods than needed. Although the charger is low output, it can still damage the battery if left on for extended periods of
time after the charge cycle is complete.
Setting up the System
To initially set up your underwater viewing system do the following.
1. Insert the foam wedge, with the thinner side up, into the soft pack as
shown in Figure 3. Slide battery into the opening in the foam wedge.
2. Gently place the camera cable plug into camera port #1 located at the
rear of the monitor.
3. Place the power cord into the port labeled 12V IN, see Figure 4.
4. Slide the monitor into the soft pack and place on top of the foam
wedge, see Figure 3.
5. Route the camera cable along the bottom right side of the monitor
(as you’re facing the monitor).
6. Route the power cord, attached at the rear of the monitor, along the
bottom right side of the monitor.

7. Attach the negative (black) and positive (red) leads of the power cord
to the battery. Tuck any extra power cord wire into the soft pack at the side of the monitor.
8. With the camera cable routed out the lower right front corner of the soft case, close the front battery flap of the soft
case which covers the battery. If adjustments are made properly,
the flap should cover the entire battery.
9. Place the cable reel in the mesh pouch on the right side of monitor
soft case and camera on the opposite side.
10. The front flap of the monitor soft case can be closed by using the
hook and loop strip on the top flap and two side flaps.
Viewing the Monitor
Figure 4: Rear View of Monitor
To view the monitor, in intense light conditions, it is recommended that
you utilize the built-in sun shield. This can be done by lifting upward on the Velcro flap on the face of the monitor soft
pack. Push the side flaps, located at each side, to the outside and the view shield will align with the monitor screen.
Although this shields indirect light - direct sunlight will render the screen non viewable. When experiencing harsh sunlight,
turn the monitor away from the sunlight and utilize the sun shield.
