8. Vedligeholdelse

• Rengøring af sonden: After each use, gently wipe the probe and camera lens with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry thoroughly. Ensure no liquids enter the probe's internal components.
• Rengøring af hovedenheden: Wipe the screen and main unit with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Opbevaring: Opbevar boreskopet i dets bæretaske på et køligt, tørt sted, væk fra direkte sollys og ekstreme temperaturer.
• Batteripleje: For at forlænge batteriets levetid bør du undgå at aflade batteriet helt ofte. Oplad enheden regelmæssigt, selvom den ikke er i brug i længere perioder.

9. Fejlfinding

• Enheden tændes ikke:
  • Sørg for, at batteriet er fuldt opladet.
  • Kontroller, om tænd/sluk-knappen er trykket tilstrækkeligt ned og holdt nede.
• Intet billede på skærmen:
  • Verify the probe is securely connected to the main unit.
  • Check LED brightness settings; increase if in a dark environment.
• Billedkvaliteten er dårlig:
  • Rengør kameralinsen for eventuelle tilstopninger eller pletter.
  • Adjust LED brightness to avoid glare or underexposure.
  • Ensure the probe is within the optimal focal range.
• Probe articulation is not working:
  • Kontroller for eventuelle fysiske forhindringer, der forhindrer sonden i at bøje.
  • Ensure the joystick is functioning correctly.
• Advarsel om høj temperatur: If a temperature warning appears (e.g., a red triangle icon) and the device shuts down, it indicates the probe has reached its temperature limit (95°C/194°F). Remove the probe from the hot environment and allow it to cool down before attempting to use it again.

10. Brugertips

• The semi-rigid cable is designed to be flexible yet hold its shape. Utilize this feature to navigate complex pathways and maintain the desired camera angle during inspections.
• Experiment with the different LED brightness levels to find the optimal setting for various inspection surfaces and lighting conditions, especially when dealing with reflective materials.
• The two-way articulation is crucial for thorough inspections. Practice using the joystick to maneuver the probe tip effectively to get a full 360° view af inspektionsområdet.
• Consider using the dual-view mode when inspecting areas where both a direct forward view og en side view are beneficial, such as engine cylinders or pipe junctions.
• This borescope is highly versatile and suitable for a wide range of applications including machinery maintenance, vehicle repair (especially diesel engines), plumbing, electrical installations, and general home DIY projects.
