Insert/change of battery Open the battery compartment by turning the screwcap to the left. Insert a CR123 battery accor- ding to the polarity indicated on the battery com- partment. Close the battery compartment again. Note When the device connector is not in use, it must always be sealed watertight with the cap provided. -

The thermal image is then displayed on the screen. - Page 9 CR = Cold Red With this filter, the heat sources are shown in black and the coldest areas of the image in red. This tactical filter is preferably used at night to reduce glare. BCR = Boost Cold Red The boost variant of the CR filter optimizes the brightness dynamics. This means that even less warm objects are displayed better.
- Page 10 BH = Black Hot In contrast to the white-hot filter, the heat sources are displayed in black here. This makes the thermal image look much more natural. However, as a much larger area of the image is displayed in lighter shades of gray, the glare effect is more pronounced at night.

Page 20: Power Supply
Power supply CR123 Lithium battery The TILO is supplied and operated with two CR123 batteries. In particularly cold environments, reliable operation is only possible with batteries. At very low temperatures (for example -30°C) the runtime of batteries is also reduced. To compensate the diffe- rence in thickness it is necessary to use the battery sleeve. -
Page 21: Use Of Accessories
Use of Accessories Helmet adapter (for tactical helmets) Suitable for ballistic helmets. The Shroud remains free to attach other NVDs. Suitable for all TILO mo- dels. By pressing the release lever, the TILO can be removed within one second. Incl. spacer for non- ballistic (shock) helmets and extension piece for for a larger distance to the eye. -
Page 22: Shutter Eyecup
Shutter Eyecup he shutter eyecup is attached like the normal eyecup but is equipped with a mechanism which causes an automatic closure of the eyepiece when the TILO™ is removed or folded up. As a result, leakage of scat- tered light is prevented even more reliably. However, the shutter eyecup is significantly longer and less comfortable to wear. -

This allows the lens to be attached and detached quickly. However, this accessory is limited only to the TILO-6 series and the TILO-3Z+2x. (see p. 28). Most recommended is TILO-M20™ and TILO-Z20™. No. 382017... -
Page 24: Battery Extension
Battery Extension If this is screwed onto the TILO instead of the normal battery cap, either two normal batteries or an exten- ded battery, e.g. TILO Rechargeable Battery, can be used. This way, the operating time of the TILO can be more than doubled to 6-7h. -
