OFF

 

    To turn the sight off press both UP and DOWN push-button switches simultaneously. Verify that  

    the unit is off by looking through the display window. 

  3. 

Brightness Adjustment

 

    Push-button switches vary the brightness intensity of the holographic reticle image. Pressing and  

    releasing the push-button switch moves the brightness level UP or DOWN one (1) step from the  

    previous  setting.  Pressing  and  holding  the  Up  or  Down  push-button  switch  will  change  the  

    brightness level up or down continuously.  There are fifteen (15) brightness settings providing a  

    dynamic range of 100,000:1 from the lowest setting to the highest setting. When the sight is turned  

    ON, the brightness intensity level is at Level 10. 

  4. 

Auto Shutdown

 

    The Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is equipped with an auto shutdown feature and will automatically  

    shut itself OFF 8 or 4 hours after the last push-button control is used.  This is determined by the  

    method used to turn it ON in step 1.  

MOUNTING

  

The Bushnell® Holosight® XLP is equipped with mounting hardware to attach to a Weaver-style rail or 

to a 12 gauge model 1100, 870 or 1187 Remington® shotgun. To achieve the best results and accuracy, 

the Bushnell® Holosight® XLP must be mounted properly. For the Weaver-style rail mount, the base 

must be parallel to the bore to achieve the maximum elevation and windage adjustments.

polarity of the exposed contact of the battery.  Check the polarity of the battery to be installed and insert 

the battery so that the opposite polarity end goes into the battery compartment.  To re-install the battery 

cover,  reverse  the  steps  taken  to  remove  the  cover.    DO  NOT  OVERTIGHTEN THE  KNURLED 

SCREW.  Secure it with finger tightness only.  Verify correct battery installation by turning on the sight 

and checking that the reticle image appears.  If the batteries are left in the sight backwards, they will be 

drained of their power.

ELECTRONIC FEATURES

 

The Bushnell® Holosight® XLP controls are push-button switches located at the top of the unit as 

shown in Figure 1.  To ensure proper operation of the push button switches, press the switch firmly.  

Audible and tactile feedback is provided when properly actuated.

ON/ Auto Battery Check

 

    Pressing either the Up or Down push-button switch will turn the sight ON. If the Up arrow is used  

    to turn the sight ON it will be set at an 8 hour shutdown mode.  That is, if the unit is not re-adjusted  

    for  brightness  for  a  period  of  8  hours,  it  will  turn  off.    If  the  Down  arrow  is  used  to  turn  the  

    sight ON it will be set at a 4 hour shutdown mode.  See step 4 under this section for description of  

    Auto shutdown. The sight will automatically perform a battery check every time it is turned on. If  

    the batteries have less than 20% of life left, the sight will turn on with the reticle image blinking on  

    and off for 5 seconds. If the remaining battery life is more than 20%, the sight will turn on with a  

    steady reticle pattern.  The battery condition can be checked any time by turning the sight off and on.
