MOUNTING YOUR SCOPE

The ThOR 5 has a 3.5- inch eye relief (90 mm), and can be moun ted using 30 mm mounting rings. ATN has provided two standard rings and one L shape ring. The L shape ring is for those instances when you need extra eye relief for certain rifles. First, choose  your preference of rings and position and mount the bottom portions of your rings to your rail for optimal eye relief. Place the scope on the bottom half of the rings you just mounted, verifying you have sufficient eye relief for your platform. Place the top portion of your ring over the mounted bottom portion, make sure the holes align and the screws turn easily.
Apply equal torque to all screws with the provided Allen wrench. Make sure your rings are tight on your rifles rail and will not come loose due to recoil.
For mounting the ThOR 5 on the Picatinny rail:

1. Loosen the fixing screws on the sides of the mounting rings.
2. Place the rifle scope on the Picatinny rail so that the projection of the rail, which is in the base of the ring, enters the recess in the rail.
3. Tighten the fixing screws of the mounting rings.

CAUTION!
Be sure your weapon is not loaded. Use safe weapon handling procedures at all times.
NOTE
Please do not over tighten the Fixing Screws when attaching the rings to your rail, we recommend using 30 in-lbs (Nm 3.39).

RAV CALIBRATION RAV
(Recoil Activated Video) is a fantastic feature that allows you to set your scope to record your video when you fire your weapon. But as there are many types of calibers and platforms our standard RAV sensitivity may not be enough. IE small calibers that have little recoil, which fails to activate RAV. With this option you are able to adjust the sensitivity of your scope in order for it to recognize the light recoil and activate RAV. NOTE
For best results you should only Calibrate RAV at a shooting range. ATN endorses safe and responsible recreational shooting, and does not recommend RAV calibration at home regardless of state law. Open the Shortcut Carousel and navigate to the Wrench Icon. Scroll to Profile/Zero and then Select Current. Use the Down Button to navigate to RAV calibration. Press the Right Button to enter RAV calibration. You should see a velocity rating in the upper left corner ( . ft/s or m/s ) followed by “1, 2, 3”. The First circle is blinking denoting actively searching for input. While having the RAV calibration active fire a round down range. You should see example (9.4 ft/s) or something similar, as it will depend on the caliber and your platform. Once you get the first number press the center OK button to save. Repeat this process with only your desired input until there is a check mark on all numbers. If an error has been encountered either with ammunition, loading, or any other possible malfunction, simply press the Function 1 button to leave RAV calibration. Afterwards, please repeat the process. Once this has been accomplished your scopes RAV is calibrated to your caliber, grain, velocity, and platforms felt recoil. By following this process, you should be able to use RAV with the ammunition and platform used during the calibration process. NOTE
We have conducted tests to 22 Air rifle and 22 Long Rifle successfully increasing the sensitivity of RAV.
ZEROING
NOTE
Before Zeroing your scope, please make sure the correct lens type is selected. You can check this by going to the System Settings and selecting Settings. You will see the subcategory Device Type. Please make sure you select the lens type of your scope.
This lets the system know which Scope you are actually using (example: ThOR 5 320 4-16x or 640 4-32x).
To Zero in your scope you will need to go to the Profile/Zero section of the System Settings, or select it from the Shortcut Carousel.
To enter the System Settings, open Shortcut Carousel with OK button and select the wrench icon with RIGHT or LEFT buttons . Or select the Zero Reticle shortcut from the Shortcut Carousel.
Push the OK button to enter the menu.
Before you begin the Zeroing process you will need to either create a new Profile or utilize an existing one. We recommend to create a new one to understand the process better.
Under the Profiles/Zero Category you will find Current, Other, Import from SD card, Export to SD card. Select Other. There you will see Profile 1 and CreateNew Profile. You can select Profile 1 and edit it, or create a new one and make changes to it. Once you select a profile, press the OK button to load it. Once the profile is loaded, it becomes your current profile. Profiles are primarily used in order to utilize your scope on various weapons. This way, when moving your scope from one gun to the next, you can simply select the Profile that you have already created for the particular gun you are using. Multiple profiles are also used to zero in the scope, on the same gun, but at different ranges. For example, one Profile may be called AR 50 yards and another AR 200 yards. Allowing you to create two separate profiles to better fine tune your shooting solutions for both shorter and longer range shooting.
In order to change the profile name to what you want, open the ATN Con nect 5 app and connect your Phone/Tablet to your scope.
To zero your rifle with the ATN device, follow the next few steps.
