unit remains on, but the image display is turned off by pressing the
Power Button just momentarily. The red LED power indicator (15)
will remain lit during the standby mode. Always replace the
objective lens cover after the unit is turned off and is no longer is in
use.
FOCUSING THE UNIT:
To obtain the sharp image, you must rotate the Distance Focusing
Knob (3) in either direction, until the image is at its best. You may
have to repeat the process again, until the image is sharp and clear.
SUPER CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS:
Your thermal device comes with a unique Super Controller (8), which
allows for nearly instant image adjustment to the best possible
brightness and clarity without having to enter the menu settings. This
feature is extremely useful when atmospheric conditions change
rapidly, especially during high humidity and/or rapid temperature
changes.
The super controller has the following sequence when short-pressed:
1. IMAGE GAIN (
GAIN
)
2. DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS (
BRGT
)
3. SENSITIVITY (
SENS
)
4. IMAGE DETAIL ENHANCEMENT (
IDE
)
To adjust the IMAGE GAIN
, rotate the Super Controller either
clockwise or counterclockwise while viewing the image
– you will
see word
GAIN
and either positive or negative number appear on
the bottom left corner of the image display. There are 10 negative
and 10 positive Gain levels and a Zero level. Lowering the Image
Gain will allow for better facial and detail recognition. Increasing
the Image Gain will allow for better target detection and
recognition of surroundings, such as houses/buildings, trees and
bushes and so on, allowing you to better see the target
surroundings and to better orient in the terrain.
To adjust the Display Brightness level
short-press the
Super Controller once and letters
BRGT
will appear in the display
– you can now rotate the same switch and Display Brightness will
change. There are 30 levels of display brightness. During
nighttime use, brightness level is optimal between 10 and 20,
depending on the ambient conditions. Keep in mind that higher
brightness levels drain the batteries faster.
To adjust the Thermal Sensitivity (
Sensor’s Brightness
Output)
short-press the GAIN switch twice and letters
SENS
will
appear in the display
– you can now rotate the same switch and
Sensitivity will change. There are 40 levels of sensitivity (min
sensitivity is 40 and max is 80)
