The cable is installed on a stable drum with a slip ring. It has Kevlar reinforcing and is abrasion and acid proof. The live image is displayed on an 8.4? color LCD monitor, which is protected by a metal case with a sun shield for day time viewing. There is a full keyboard to add text to files, and label them, and a built in digital video recorder with an SD memory card to capture and document live video from inspections.
