    CHAPTER III SECTION I OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 3.2 DBAL-I CONTROLS AND INDICATORS 3.2.a Battery Installation NOTE Loss or removal of the O-ring from the battery cap may allow water to enter the DBAL-I Unscrew the battery cap in a CW direction. Remove and properly discard the spent battery.
  • Page 20 Figure 3-1 Battery Installation 3.2.b Activation Mode Selector Switch WARNING The High Power Modes of operation are blocked with a blue Safety Screw. NOTE The DBAL-I will not operate if the rotary switch is not aligned with the marked switch position. In extreme cold temperatures the switch may offer more resistance.
  • Page 21 The Activation Mode Selector Switch is located on the left rear of the DBAL-I housing. It is used to select between the various modes of operation when the Remote Cable Switch or the Integrated Momentary Activation Switch is depressed. The Activation Mode Selector Switch has six positions. See Table 3-1.
  • Page 22 Table 3-1 Activation and Mode Selector Switch Functions Switch Marking Remarks Position The DBAL-I will not operate LOW IR POINT is activated Used for bore sighting and (AIM LO) when the Remote Cable training Switch or Integrated Momentary Activation switch is depressed.
  • Page 23 3.2.c Safety Screw To operate the DBAL-I in the High Power modes, the blue Safety Screw must be removed from the back of the unit. The Armorer will remove and store the Safety Screw. CAUTION DO NOT over tighten the Safety Screw when installing it into the DBAL-I housing as you may strip the housing threads.
  • Page 24 3.2.d Integrated Momentary Activation Switch The Integrated Momentary Activation Switch is located on the top of the DBAL-I housing below the word FIRE. Firmly pressing and holding the switch activates the DBAL-I laser function selected by the Activation Mode Selector Switch.
  • Page 25 3.2.e Activation Indicator A green LED is located on the rear housing between the Activation Mode Selector Switch and the remote cable receptacle. When lit, it indicates that the DBAL-I is actively emitting laser energy. It also acts as a Low Battery Indicator. When the Activation Mode Selector Switch is turned to an operating position, the LED will light up if either the Remote Cable Switch or Integrated Momentary Activation Switch is pressed and held, indicating that the laser is ON.
  • Page 26 Figure 3.5 Laser Activation/Low Battery LED 3.2.f Remote Cable Switch CAUTION DO NOT remove the Remote Cable Switch by pulling on the cable. NOTE When installing the Remote Cable Switch, twist the plug into the remote cable port. The DBAL-I Activation Mode Selector Switch must be turned to a laser setting to use the Remote Cable Switch.
  • Page 27 The Remote Cable Switch plugs into the back of the DBAL-I for weapon mounted use as shown in Figure 3-6. Pressing the Remote Cable Switch activates the DBAL-I in the operational mode and power level selected by the Activation Mode Selector Switch (e.g. A/L, D/L, A/H, etc). When the remote cable switch is released, the DBAL-I turns off.
  • Page 28 3.2.g IR ILLUM Focusing Knob CAUTION Prior to submerging the DBAL-I make sure the infrared illuminator focusing knob has been adjusted in a CCW direction to its stop. To prevent damage to the IR ILLUM Exit Port Cover, open the Exit Port Cover before turning the knob to adjust the focus.

  • Page 30 The Optical Instrument Reticles (OIR), or Pattern Generators, are used for command and control. When an OIR is installed in front of the IR ILLUM that has been focused to a spot, it will project the shape of a circle, triangle, plus sign, square, or T-shape as shown in Figure 3-8.
  • Page 31 To install the OIR, stretch the end of the retaining strap over the retaining stud located on the bottom of the housing. Repeat the procedure by stretching the loose end of the retaining strap over the stud located on the top of the housing. Figure 3-9 Installation of OIR, or Pattern Generator CAUTION DO NOT over adjust the adjusters by forcing them beyond their end of travel.
  • Page 32 3.2.I Adjusters The adjuster may offer resistance as you turn it in a CW direction from the factory neutral position. When the adjuster is harder to turn, it has reached the maximum CW travel. When the adjuster is at its maximum CW or CCW point of travel and turned in the opposite direction, the laser point may trace a small loop on the target.
  • Page 33 on the same side of the target as the laser is mounted and must fall within 15 cm of the bore at 25 meters. See Paragraph 3.6. The DBAL-I is equipped with adjusters to zero the IR POINT and IR ILLUM. Each adjuster click will move the laser point by 1 cm at 25 meters.

    CHAPTER III SECTION II MOUNTING PROCEDURES 3.3 MOUNTING PROCEDURES WARNING Be sure the weapon is CLEAR and on SAFE before proceeding. NOTE The DBAL-I may be placed at any position (forward and aft) on the rail that is convenient for the operator. If the DBAL-I is removed from the rail, the operator must take note of the position at which it was zeroed, and return it to the same position in order to ensure that zero is retained.
  • Page 39 An integrated Quick Release Mount is used to attach the DBAL-I to weapons equipped with a MIL-STD-1913 rail. Place the unit far enough back on the rail to allow for battery replacement without removal from the weapon. If removed, the DBAL-I must be returned to the same position on the rail to retain zero.
  • Page 40 3.3.a M4/M16A4 Mounting Procedure WARNING Be sure the weapon is CLEAR and on SAFE before proceeding. NOTE The DBAL-I may be placed at any position (forward and aft) on the rail that is convenient for the operator. If the DBAL-I is removed from the rail, the operator must take note of the position at which it was zeroed, and return it to the same position in order to ensure that zero is retained.
  • Page 41 Figure 3-12 DBAL-I Top Mounted on M4/M16A The DBAL-I may be mounted on the Top, Left, or Right rail using the Quick Release Mount. Open the Quick Release Mount so that it is perpendicular to the DBAL-I housing. See Figure 3-15. Align the crossbar on the bottom of the mount with a slot on the rail.

NOTE ALWAYS Zero starting with the Adjuster marked U/D.
  • Page 43 When adjusting in a CCW direction, apply a positive load to the adjuster by turning an additional turn (8 clicks) CCW, then make the final boresight/zero adjustment by turning the adjuster CW. For example, to move the adjuster one (1) click CCW, turn the adjuster CCW 8 clicks and then turn it CW 7 clicks to the new position.
  • Page 44 The DBAL-I is preset at the factory to a neutral position. In the neutral position the laser beam is parallel to the bore of the weapon. The IR POINT can be returned to the factory alignment (neutral position) using the following procedure: 1.
  • Page 45 Table 3-4 Factory Neutral Preset Adjuster Instruction Adjuster Guard marked U/D First, turn CW to end of travel. DO NOT for the IR POINT force past mechanical stop. Next, turn CCW 1 turns. Finally, turn CW to Adjuster Guard marked R/L for the align the dot on the adjuster with the IR POINT dot on the adjuster guard.
