EXTENDING THE POLE 
The VPC-64 can be extended up to 6.5 feet (200cm) and the VPX-64 can be 
extended up to 12.5 feet (386cm).  To extend the pole, release one or more locking 
latches on the side of the pole.  Extend the pole to the desired length.  Close the 
locking latches.  When the Video Pole Camera is at or near its full extended length, 
the pole may have to be held at the desired length while the locking latches are 
closed.  
 
To retract the pole, open the locking latches and slide the pole sections to the desired 
length.  Do not force the pole sections.  The sections should retract with little force.   
 
The Video Pole Camera contains an internal, high stretch ratio, retractable cord 
eliminating any external wires or cables.  The retractable cord will naturally pull the 
pole sections toward the closed position. 
 
NOTE: If the Video Pole Camera is used with the pole extended near its maximum 
length for more than 30 minutes, the tractable cord inside the pole may develop a 
memory and retract slower than usual causing part of the cord to be ejected from the 
bottom of the pole.  In extreme cases, the cord can bind inside the pole.  To avoid 
potential problems with the retractable cord when the pole has been extended for 
long periods of time, collapse the pole slowly, giving the retractable cord time to 
retract back to its original stretch ratio memory. 
 
RECORDING VIDEO 
The Video Pole Camera is supplied with one external video cable and a Y-adapter.  
The cable is used to allow recording or viewing video.  An external video recorder 
(not supplied) is needed to record video.  To record video, insert the 3.5mm stereo 
plug in the Video I/O Jack.  Then insert the Video Out RCA connector in the video in 
of the external video recorder.  Under this configuration the LCD monitor will not 
display any video.  The VPC does not support the recording of audio. 
 
By using the supplied Y-adapter the LCD monitor can display the same video images 
that are being recorded.   To record video and view the video images on the LCD 
Monitor, insert the 3.5mm stereo plug in the Video I/O Jack.  Then insert the Video 
Out RCA connector in the Y-adapter. Connect the Video In of the cable to the Y-
Adapter.  Finally, connect the Y-adapter to the video in of the external video recorder.
