15.4. Head/Helmet-Mounted, PD-PRO-16B Operations
a.
Take off the objective protective cover
(in low light conditions only)
and position it under the
PD-PRO-16B.
Opposite side of the electronic housing.
b.
Set the operation switch to OFF for magnetic switch-controlled operation.
c.
Adjust the diopter ring to achieve the clearest screen resolution (sharp spots on the
eyepiece).
Does not focus on an object yet;
put your palm over the objective front lens, to
only allow a small amount of light into the
PD-PRO-16B.
Once set for your eye, it should
not require further adjustment during operation.
d.
Adjust the objective focus ring to obtain a clear image of a desired object. Readjust eyepiece
and objective if necessary.
NOTE
The mounting adapter incorporates a magnetic switch that automatically turns off the
PD-PRO-16B
when it is moved to the side away from the eye, switched between eyes or removed from the head mount.
15.5. Removing the PD-PRO-16B and Head Mount
a.
Set the
PD-PRO-16B
operation switch to OFF.
b.
Disconnect the neck cord from the anchor point on clothing or webbing.
c.
Make sure that the objective protective cover is in position.
d.
Press and hold the NVLS-24 release button on the mounting adapter.
e.
Pull the
PD-PRO-16B
off the dovetail of the adapter assembly.
f.
Loosen all straps and unbuckle the chin support.
g.
Remove the head mount over your head.
h.
Remove the battery from the
PD-PRO-16B.
16. Operation at Low Temperature
At very low temperature (below zero) it can require more effort to operate the
PD-PRO-16B
controls
than in warmer conditions. This is normal. Do not attempt to force the movement of controls as this can
damage the working parts.
The capacity of the battery is reduced at low temperatures. This reduction in battery life is normal and
battery depletion will increase as the temperature decreases.
17. Operation at High Temperature
The
PD-PRO-16B
can be operated up to 55˚C, but wherever possible protect the battery from excessive heat.
The
PD-PRO-16B
can be subjected to sudden changes in temperature. But if the
PD-PRO-16B
is
moved from a cold area (A/C acclimatized) into an area with a much higher temperature and humidity,
condensation can occur on the optical surfaces.
18. Operation in Humid or Dusty Conditions
In humid or dusty conditions, extra care must be taken to keep all surfaces (particularly the optical
surfaces) clean at all times.
When using for diving the sacrificial flat-flat lenses must be firmly attached to objective and eyepiece.
Adjust eyepiece diopter and focusing ring at 1-meter depth.
After immersion in salt water, all elements of the goggle must be cleaned with fresh water for
dissolving salts and dried completely with a clean cloth. Salt will corrode any material over a
medium or long-term duration. This will particularly impact the Magnesium variant of the PD-PRO-16B.
