Note

If you want to make cable connections to the camera before mounting it to your vessel (for example, to test the camera), first attach the 3 threaded studs to the base. This will help to protect the cable connectors on the base of the camera, and also provides a stable platform, helping to prevent damage caused by the unit rolling off the edge of the work surface.
