џ
Store the battery out of the reach of children.
џ
When charging, always use the
charger supplied with your optical
device. The use of a different
charger may cause irreparable
damage to the battery or the charger and may cause the battery to ignite.
џ
After being stored for a long time, the battery should be partially charged – it should not be fully charged or
completely discharged.
Battery charge from 20% to 60%.
џ
Insert the battery (10) into the
assigned slot on the device casing
(14), aligning the images on the
instrument and the battery.
LED Indicator
*
Battery charge status
Installation:
Battery charge from 60% to 95%.
Battery charge from 0% to 10%; Charger connected to the mains power supply.
Battery defective. Battery should not be used.
Battery charge from 10% to 20%.
џ
The battery should be charged at a temperature of between 0° C and +45° C, otherwise the battery life will be
significantly reduced.
* The LED indicator displays the current level of charge of the battery for 30 seconds when the APS charger is not
plugged in. When the power is connected, the display shows the current status of the battery constantly, the LEDs
additionally flickering to indicate the battery charging process.
џ
Do not subject the battery to shocks or falls.
џ
Do not use the battery in temperatures that exceed those shown in the table – this may shorten battery life.
Battery charge status
(see table).
џ
Do not leave the battery unattended during charging.
џ
Do not charge the battery immediately after bringing it from the cold into a warm atmosphere. Wait 30–40
minutes for the battery to warm up.
џ
Do not expose the battery to high temperatures or naked flame.
џ
Do not use the charger if it has been modified or damaged.
Battery charge from 0% to 10%; Charger not connected to the mains power supply.
џ
The connecting of third-party devices with an energy consumption greater than permissible is not
recommended.
џ
When properly installed, the
battery is locked into the slot with
a special clip.
џ
To remove the battery, press the
Battery Release button (9).
џ
The battery is equipped with a short circuit protection system. However, situations that may lead to short
circuiting should be avoided.
џ
Do not dismantle or deform the battery.
џ
The battery is not intended to be immersed in water.
џ
Where the battery is used in below-zero temperatures, capacity will decrease. This is normal and does not
indicate a defect.
Safety measures:
Battery completely charged. Can be disconnected from the charger.
џ
Do not leave a charger with a battery connected to the mains for more than 24 hours after full charge.
EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
џ
The device will switch to operation from the external power source, while the APS3 battery will be gradually
recharged.
External power is supplied from an external source, such as a 5V Power Bank.
џ
When the external power supply is disconnected, the device switches to the internal power supply without the
device powering off.
џ
An icon of a battery
will appear on the display showing its charge as a percentage.
џ
Attach the external power source to the device's USB connector (8) (Fig. 1)
џ
If the device is operated from an external power source and the APS3 battery is not connected, an icon is
displayed
.
OPERATION
ATTENTION!
The lens of the device must not be pointed at any sources of intense energy, such as laser-emitting
devices or the sun. This may damage the electronic components in the device. Damage caused by failure to
comply with the operating guidelines is not covered under warranty.
џ
Adjust the resolution of the icons on the display by rotating the dioptre adjustment ring on the eyepiece (1). In
future, it will not be necessary to rotate the eyepiece dioptre adjustment ring, regardless of distance and other
conditions.
џ
Turn the device off after use with a long press of the ON button (5).
џ
Adjustment of brightness and contract in the display, as well as turning on the smooth digital zoom, are
described in the FAST ACCESS MENU FUNCTIONS section.
џ
To focus on the object being observed, rotate the lens focus ring (6).
Axion XM22 does not require lens focusing.
џ
Remove the lens cover (7). Secure the cover to the strap using the magnet built into the cover.
Switching on and adjusting the image
џ
Power up the device by pressing the ON button (5).
CALIBRATING THE SENSOR
џ
M mode
(manual). Secure the lens cap and briefly press the ON button (5). After completing the calibration
process, remove the lens cap.
Calibration enables the microbolometer temperature background to be equalised and defects in the image
(such as vertical lines, phantom images etc.) to be eliminated.
Select the required mode in the CALIBRATION section of the menu .
There are three calibration modes: manual (M), semi-automatic (SA) and automatic (A).
џ
SA mode
(semi-automatic). Calibration is engaged by a brief press of the ON button (5). The lens cap need not
be secured (the sensor is closed by an internal shutter).
џ
A mode
(automatic). The device is calibrated autonomously, in accordance with the software algorithm. The
lens cap need not be secured (the sensor is closed by an internal shutter). In this mode, the device may be
calibrated by the user using the ON button (5) (in semi-automatic mode).
DISCRETE DIGITAL ZOOM
The device's functionality offers the possibility of quickly increasing its base multiplicity (see the table of
technical properties in the Digital Zoom line) by a factor of 2 or 4. Adjust the digital zoom accordingly by pressing
the DOWN button (2).
THE QUICK ACCESS MENU FUNCTIONS
џ
A short press of the Menu button (3) enables you to switch between functions.
џ
Enter the menu with a short press of the Menu button (3).
The basic settings (brightness and contrast adjustment, use of the smooth digital zoom function and the
stadiametric rangefinder) are changed via the Quick Access Menu.
