2.2.1. Operation Switch
A three-position rotary switch controls the operation of the MINIMUS-BINO.
WARNING
The IR position is very dangerous when used in the field, since you will be visible to external observers using
image intensified equipment.
Operation switch of the PD-PRO-16B
The Operation switch of the PD-PRO-16B has three different positions:
Position 1:“OFF/M”.
The device is disconnected and turns ON each arm of the BINOCULAR when
attached to the helmet mount or head mount and each arm is aligned with the eye of the operator.
When the
PD-PRO-16B
is flipped to side, the equipment disconnects automatically, preventing the
operator from emitting uncontrolled light that can be detected by the enemy. When reattached to the
helmet mount and aligned with the operator’s eye, the equipment restarts automatically, without need
to restart the ON/OFF switch.
WARNING
Before flipping the goggle into the up position, ensure each channel is rotated up to obtain the ultra-low profile
over the helmet.
Position 2: "ON". In this position the device is on when each arm is aligned with the eye of the operator.
This position activates the
PD-PRO-16B
for the use in manual mode, as observation binocular; the main
magnetic sensor is disabled.
Position 3: "IR”. In this position the system works like 2 position and a short-range IR illuminator
switching on. This position has two modes, instantaneous or continuous, for instantaneous mode turn
the knob to position 3 and keeps it clamped, when you release it, automatically will return to position 2.
To keep the IR illuminator continuous; pull the knob slightly outwards and then turn it to the position 3.
