GETTING STARTED
The system is simple to use. The following instructions are for the GoPro HERO4 series of cameras.

GoPro housing is removed by opening the backdoor fully and then pulling or rotating the
backdoor away from the camera housing.

Cable.

Telescopic Pole & Underwater WiFi Cable
1. Mount the camera / lighting tray onto the end of the telescopic pole. There is a ball mount
already installed on the pole end ready to accept the camera / lighting system.
2. Before extending the pole, loosen the hinge ratchet, adjust to the desired angle and then
re-tighten.

3. Extend the pole to the length you need. Tether the underwater wifi cable at the hinge with
the included tether.
4. Teather the Underwater WiFi Cable to the handle of the pole using the elastic velcro strap.
5. (Optional) Attach the dry-end adapter to the back of the viewing device using the velcro tape.
How far the tablet or smartphone can be from the dry-end adapter depends on the
orientation of the adapter, the type of the antenna in the controlling device, and the
interference from other signals. The WiFi signal will transmit a few feet from the dry-end in
most cases, but the closer the better.

LumeCube Setup
The LumeCube has 10 manual brightness settings that change in increments of 150 lumens. The
brightest setting maxes out at 1500 lumens. On a full charge at maximum brightness, the LumeCube
will last up to 30 minutes. At 50% brightness, your LumeCube will last 2 hours. Each LumeCube
produces a 60º beam. The dual LumeCube tray provides full light coverage for the GoPro’s wide 120º
horizontal field of view.

LumeCube Charging and Waterproofing
The one and only piece you have to worry about is the waterproof screw cap located at the back of
the unit. BEFORE you expose the LumeCube to water, ensure always ensure the screw cap is
tightened completely. Ensure the rubber gasket on the thread side of the screw cap this is present,
clean, and free from any debris.
Remove the screw cap to access the microUSB charging port. When the LumeCube is not charging,
flashing red lights below the buttons indicate a low battery. For maximum charge leave on charger
for 60-90 minutes. When connected to a USB charger, flashing red light will indicate the unit is
charging and will turn off when the battery is fully charged.

Action Camera Setup
The CamDo system is compatible with several different action cameras that use the the knuckle style
mounting such as on a GoPro. The action camera must also be WiFi enabled to stream the footage
being shot to the surface to your local tablet or smartphone.
The following instructions pertain to GoPro HERO4 series of cameras (except HERO4 Session).
1. Make sure the SD card and charged battery are in the GoPro camera.
2. Turn on the WiFi of the GoPro camera by holding down the button on the side of the
camera.
3. Launch the GoPro App on your tablet or smartphone. The apps can be downloaded from the
Apple store or Google Play store depending on your device.
4. Connect to the GoPro camera using the GoPro App for a live preview and control of the
camera settings. If your camera has not been paired with the GoPro App, simply following
the instructions on how to pair your GoPro with your device on this page:

5. Once your camera is connected, you will now see a low resolution live view from the camera.
Tap the record button to start/stop recording in upto 4K resolution.
6. Once you have finished recording, the full resolution footage can be reviewed via the App.
The files can also be downloaded by connecting the camera to a laptop/PC or placing the SD
card in laptop/PC to download.
7. To recharge the camera batteries, use the dual GoPro battery charger.
Taking care of your system and maintenance
To ensure long term trouble-free use of your system, make sure to take the time to clean the system
at the end of each use. We recommend the following:
1. Rinse down the camera and lights in freshwater.
2. Wipe down the carbon pole before retracting.
3. Stand pole upright and drain any water via the base end cap.
4. Drain any water in the hard cases before sealing the contents.
