The IR icon in the image display will change colors from pink to orange to red, in-
dicating the three different power levels. After the red level (3rd and most powerful)
the next short press on the IR button will turn the IR off completely.
When using the infrared illuminator it is important to remember that like a flashlight,
it is brightest when used in short distances. As the distance increases, the intensity
of the infrared light fades away. The illuminator lens can be focused by rotating its
front lens barrel (2). This allows for the IR beam to be widened (shorter effective
distance) or narrowed (longer effective distance).
IMAGE COLOR OPTIONS:
The binocular has 4 distinct image colors, which are suitable for a variety of light
and terrain conditions. In order to change the image color, you just need to mo-
mentarily press onto the Menu/Controller. Each press will switch to the next avai-
lable color according to this order:
- Daytime mode (default mode) displays images in full-color. This is preferred mode
for daytime use as well as when enough artificial light is present (inside a well-lit
room). If used during nighttime the overall sensitivity of the image sensor will be
significantly reduced and, as you must remove the daytime color filter during night-
time, the image colors will no longer have true reproduction.
- Black & White mode displays images in monochrome black and white. This mode
is particularly useful during nighttime city/urban settings when it might be important
to read the street signs or automobile plates or similar situations where highest
contrast between light and dark colors is necessary.
- Green mode allows you to experience image as seen with traditional "intensifier
tube" night vision devices. This mode is best utilized at nighttime only in the clear
field/rural settings.
- Amber mode: this unique and state-of-the-art color mode may be used in a va-
riety of nighttime conditions when highest detail of the object is required. It provides
excellent sharpness and contrast similar to Black & White mode, but is also highly
useful in rural/terrain observation settings, by adding an Amber hue and making
images look color-like without losing any nighttime sensitivity. This color mode is
also very useful for dark and rainy days, as well as for dusk and dawn conditions
and for conditions where direct/projection light is present, for example automobile
headlights, as it helps to mitigate the light glare.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ!

Due to the inherited limitations of any digital image sensor, video refresh rate will
be significantly slower during nighttime, resulting in visible image lag/delay when
using your monocular in the dark. It is important to take the following steps to mi-
nimize this effect and ensure the best possible image and video recording quality:
- During nighttime and in any dark condition always activate built-in IR illuminator
– it will provide extra light needed for the image sensor to "speed up" its refresh
rate and image delay will be minimized.
