Lights

Primary LEDs

Available on: Revolution, Pivot, DTG3, DTPod, Utility Crawler

The primary light button turns the primary flood lights on and off. The primary flood lights are located inside the camera head. Immediately after these lights are turned on, an intensity level will appear in the upper right-hand side of the LCD screen. Use the right-hand set of up and down arrows to adjust the level of light intensity. This can only be done in the first 5 seconds after the lights have been turned on. To adjust the intensity later, use the primary lights button to highlight the intensity level again. After the first 5 seconds, or 5 seconds after adjusting, the arrows will return to their normal function as speed gain control.  

Note that in murky water the primary lights can be dimmed or turned off to decrease backscatter from particulate matter in the water, just as you would turn off your high beams in foggy weather while driving a car.

The auxiliary flood light button turns the two aux flood lights on and off. These lights are mounted inside the front of the power packs on the ROV. Immediately after these lights are turned on, an intensity level will appear in the upper right-hand side of the LCD screen. Use the right-hand set of arrows, up and down, to adjust the level of light intensity. This can only be done in the first 5 seconds after the lights have been turned on to adjust the intensity later, use the auxiliary flood lights button to highlight the intensity level again. After the first 5 seconds, or 5 seconds after adjusting, the arrows will return to their normal function as speed gain control.

Due to the shape and size of each of the vehicles, the auxiliary lights may be in different housings and arrangements

10K LEDs

High output lights as an optional accessory can be mounted to boom arms. Having lights further away from the camera allows for less backscatter and is necessary for doing any kind of photogrammetry or 3D modeling.

When installed these lights are controlled by the auxiliary lights button.
