1) DESCRIPTION
1.1) General description
This diver held TV camera enables the surface to control at any time the dive as it is seen
by the diver and to:
- give technical instructions and assistance to the diver for more efficient work,
- improve communication between diver and surface as well as diver's safety,
- save the use of more sophisticated equipment, such as ROVs, for a similar result
diver’s depth range.
The Complete CYCLOP 201 system features four main components:
- A CCD colour camera, water-resistant, compact,
- A surface power supply
- A single coaxial cable (75 Ohm or 50 Ohm) umbilical (Optional)
- A colour video monitor (Optional)

3) SWICHING ON THE SYSTEM:
3.1) How to switch ON the video camera
Before connecting the mains or 2 0 Volts power source, control all the connections and
check that all switches are on the OFF position.
On the power supply check the switch on back panel is well set to 100mA
Connect the power cable of the video monitor to a single phase 50/60Hz, 2 0 Volts
power source.
Connect the power cable of the surface power supply to a single phase 50/60Hz, 2 0
Volts power source
Switch ON the video monitor.
Switch on “1” the power supply with the switch 1/0.
The green light goes on.
After a few seconds a video image appears on the video monitor screen.

) TROUBLE SHOOTING:
If after switch ON there isn’t any picture on the video monitor, check all the connections.
Problem Cause Remedy
The green light of the video
monitor is switched off
Power is deficient
Check the power 2 0 VAC.
Check the good working of the switch.
Check the power is adapted (50/60Hz).
The green light of t
he power
supply is switched off
Power of the supply is
deficient
Control the power (2 0 VAC).
Check the power cable of the control
console.
Check the good working of the switch.
Check the fuse 250V/2A.
No v
ideo picture on the
video monitor
No
power on the video camera
Check that the video cable is well
connected to the BNC bulkhead of the
power supply.
The umbilical is damaged or in
short circuit
Check the continuity of the umbilical.
Check that pins 1 and 2 of the Jupiter
connectors aren’t cut or in short circuit.
Check that the power is available on the
BNC bulkhead marked TO CAMERA on
the power supply.
Camera field blocked
Check video monitor adjustments
.
Check the camera isn’t in front of an
object or a plain coloured (black or
white) wall in front of the camera.
Too much light
Check if the camera
isn’t in front of a
bright light source (sun).
Black and white image
Wrong standard
Check Pal standard on the video monitor.
