Operator Manual 

panel will also display a test pattern of alphanumeric characters 
along with icons (note: not all icons may be active during use on your 
software version). If all displays are illuminated and legible the 

operator must press the 

button to verify. The unit will 

commence a series of internal tests and displays on the rear panel: 

1. ChkSum: verifies no corruption of firmware
2. Firmware Version is displayed
3. DataFlash:  verifies no corruption of specific unit settings in

flash memory (e.g. unit of measure, menu items, etc.)

4. Serial Number is displayed
5. Battery Voltage is displayed
6. Unit Temperature is displayed

Alignment Test 

The operator will be prompted to complete a horizontal and vertical 
alignment test of the HUD aiming reticle by selecting a target with 
straight boundaries such as a utility pole or road sign at a distance of 
30 metres or greater. While holding the trigger in, slowly pan the aim 
point on and off the target edge, verifying the range reading in the 
HUD changes as the reticle passes onto the target. The preceding 
verifies horizontal alignment. Rotate the unit 90° onto its side while 
continuing to look through the HUD and repeat the above test to 
verify vertical alignment. This will allow the operator to confirm that 
the infrared energy is contained within the aiming reticule and the 
Lidar will confirm the range selected to perform this test. The 

operator will again be prompted to press the 

button.
