if you are using a standard camera in a housing & it has<br>
infrared controls on it, you can take the transmitter led out of the control<br>
unit & fix it so it is eyeballing the receiver unit on the camera, then extend the<br>
wires back to the transmitter inside the hull.<br>
I learnt that trick off someone who uses it commercially.<br>

>> With the sitting position of the pilot in the R300 and the hemispherical viewport, visibility upwards all around is excellent but visibility off to the port and starboard sides of the boat when looking down is poor. I am interested in what experience we have collectively on using subsea cameras and displaying monitor as virtual viewports. Has any one commissioned one of these cameras? What brand and model did you use and what HMI or monitor did you use? Has it worked? What has worked well and what whould do differently on your next boat?<br>
