You scope has ability to focus either long range or short. Focus the

front lens to rotate it until the image and the grain are both sharp.

FIGURE 3-3. FOCUS ADjUSTMENT

NOTE
The front lens should be readjusted for viewing objects at diffe-

rent distances. Rotate the focusing ring clockwise for far focus,

counterclockwise for near focus.

3.2.3. POLARITY

The function of polarity switching is accessible only in black and

White models.

FIGURE 3-4. DISPLAY POLARITY MODES

POLARITY button switches the direct display mode into the reverse

one, i.e. from hot-white/cold-black into hot-black/cold-white mode.

If the polarity is white-hot, the image will be with hotter objects dis-

played as white, and the rest of the image displayed as black, and

vice versa: with hotter objects displayed as black, if the polarity is

black-hot.
