usability of the device. If you believe a blemish is a cause for
rejection, warranty or repair please ATN or point of purchase for
warranty/repair procedures.
1. Bright Spots.
A bright spot is a small, non-uniform, bright area that may flicker
or appear constant (Figure 5-3).
Not all bright spots make the ATN NVM-14 rejectable. Cup your
hand over the lens to block out all light. If the bright spot remains,
return the ATN NVM-14. Bright spots usually go away when the
light is blocked out. Make sure any bright spot is not simply a
bright area in the scene you are viewing. Bright spots are
acceptable if they do not interfere with the ability to view
the outside scene.
2. Emission points.
A steady or fluctuating pinpoint of bright light in the image
area and does not go away when all light is blocked from the
objective lens of the monocular (Figure 5-3). The position of
an emission point within the image area does not move. Not all
emission points make the ATN NVM-14 rejectable. Make sure
any emission point is not simply a point light source in the scene
