NOTE
Any readjustment of eye relief requires readjustment of the
diopter.
(6) Adjust the eye relief distance by depressing the side buttons
(Figure 3.4.) (or press down on side lever on metal mount) and slid-
ing monocular fore or aft to obtain a full field-of-view of the image.
Reset the diopter adjustment for best image.
(7) Adjust the objective lens focus (Figure 1.2.) while observing an
object until the sharpest image is obtained.
(8) To flip up, grasp the helmet tilt and flip-up assembly and rotate
upward and rearward until the latch is firmly engaged.
WARNING
The monocular will not be turned off automatically when
flipped up. The monocular must be turned off by the power
switch.
(9) To flip down, grasp the helmet tilt and flip-up assembly and ro-
tate downward and forward until the latch is firmly engaged.
(10) Turn the power switch to the ON position to resume viewing.
(11) Since, the image inside a thermal scope is not a circle but a
rectangular box, when mounting the device in various positions
you may find that the box is skewed to your vision. To alleviate this
situation please use the VPT (Variable Pivot Technology) module
to make sure the image is properly aligned. The VPT module is
adjusted by rotating the front of the objective lens. Do not force the
module – it does NOT rotate 360 degrees. You may also need to
rotate the Icons to fit your new view – please see 3.2.2.3.
