•Install the battery into the housing with the polarity order as shown on the scope. Battery Type: 1.5 Volt, AA size .

•Rotate the operation knob from “OFF” position to “ON” position to turn the unit on. The protective lens cover still attached to the lens. Do not turn the unit on in the day- time without the protective lens cap on. You should see green glow in the eyepiece.

•Observe the scene and adjust the diopter for optimal image clarity.

•You may now enter a dark environment or simply shut the lights off in order to darken the room.

•Next, remove the lens cap/daylight filter. Adjust the front lens for the distance of the focus. You should not have to readjust the diopter.

•To turn the unit off, rotate the operation knob from “ON” position to “OFF” position.

FOCUSING

To focus the PS-14, first you will need to adjust the diopter. Simply turn the diopter clockwise until it stops. Then, while looking through the diopter at an object, slowly turn the diopter back counter clockwise until the grain in the image is sharp.

NOTE: We suggest that you focus the diopter during daylight with the filter on.

Next focus the front lens until the image and the grain are both sharp. When you are in low-light conditions and the daylight filter is off, you may focus the front lens to receive sharp image, the diopter should not be adjusted.

NOTE: The front lens should be readjusted as you view objects at different distances.

INFRA-RED ILLUMINATOR

Built-in

Infra-red

Illuminator

Infra-red illuminators, or IR illuminators, are common to night vision. The IR light greatly enhances the per- formance of the PS-14 while remaining almost totally invisible to the naked eye.

To turn the IR on, draw and rotate the operation knob to “IR” position.

It is important to remember that the IR illuminator is simply an infra red light source, and like any light source, it may loose its effectiveness over a great distance.
