This guide explains how to remove and replace the microSD card in the IP model HD Multi SeaCam


Tools

  • sharpie
  • spudger
  • tweezers or small pliers



Step 1 Remove Snap Chassis from Endcap

  • Using a sharpie or similar marker/pen, make a mark on the chassis sleeve at the keying pin to allow for easy alignment when closing
  • Using firm pressure, grip the chassis and pop it off of the end cap. Do not pull too hard as this can tug at the wiring causing wear and damage 


Step 2 Remove the microSD Card

  • Gently move endcap to the side to expose the rear of the camera module
  • If desired, remove desiccant pack and bake in oven for re-use

  • Use the plastic pry tool to press down on the microSD card to disengage latch 

  • Use the tweezers to gently grip the SD card and remove
  • Reconnect the snap chassis to the endcap to prevent strain on the wiring harness and bulkhead connections.


Step 3 Installing the microSD Card

  • Format the microSD card as VFAT(32-bit) before installing into the camera
  • WARNING: Do not attempt to use the web-based user interface to format microSD cards larger than 32GB in size. Larger microSD cards must be preformatted before installation. Use fdisk on a Linux operating system or a 3rd party Windows partition management utility. 
  • Using the tweezers, gently grip the microSD card and place it in the memory card slot as shown 
  • Using the plastic pry tool, press down on the microSD card to engage the memory card latch and secure card in the camera


Step 4 Reattach the Snap Chassis to the Endcap

  • Replace the desiccant pack if removed earlier
  • Align the keying pin in the endcap with the marked slot on the snap chassis
  • Gently press the snap chassis into the endcap
  • Be sure not to pinch any wires
