The video housing is made of two "half shell".
The back one holds the video on/off switch, led and mini monitor
connector, the front one integrates the manual iris and threaded ring
used to secure the video assist onto the camera.
Unscrew the three allen screws holding both part together (see dia-

inside the camera video port. Note the 45° orientation of the head
assembly.
When approaching the video to the camera housing, gently pull on
the camera wire to avoid pinching it.
Push the CCD head all the way in and start turning the video thread-
ed ring clockwise. Slightly rock the video front housing from left to
right in order to engage its locating pin with the cutout machined on
the camera video port. Tighten the locking threaded ring.

You should see a picture of the viewing screen on the monitor. Open
the video lens iris by moving its lever towards the rear of the A-
Minima.

head assembly until the viewing screen image is in focus and square
to the monitor. When this operation is achieved, hold the unit in
position and access the internal tubular holder screw. Tighten it
moderately.
Replace the video back housing on the video front housing and
secure it in position with the three allen screws, being careful not to
