Charging the Built-in Battery
- TUBE SE Series is built in a rechargeable 18650 battery pack, with battery power for up to 11 hours of normal operating time. The battery should be fully charged before the first use.
- Open the USB rubber cover (9) to reveal the Type C port (10).
- Plug the Type C end of the supplied USB cable (12) into the Type C port (10) of the TUBE SE Series.
- Connect the other end of the USB cable to the power adapter (13), and insert the power adapter (13) into a 100-240V power socket (14) for charging.
- When charging, a lightning charging icon appears on the battery icon, and the LED indicator (11) on the device is red. When the LED indicator (11) turns green, it indicates that the charging is completed.
- During use, if the battery icon turns red, it indicates that the battery level is low. Please charge the battery in time to avoid reducing the service life of the device due to the over-discharge of the battery.
Safety Precautions
- When charging, please use the 5V2A power adapter compatible with the device. Using any other type of power adapter may cause irreversible damage to the battery or the adapter itself.
- If the device is not used for a long time, the battery should be partially charged, not fully charged or discharged.
- Do not charge the device immediately after it is moved to a warm environment from a cold environment. Wait for 30 to 40 minutes for preheating.
- Do not use the charger if it is modified or damaged.
- The device should be charged at a temperature of 0°C to +40°C. Otherwise, the battery life will be significantly reduced.
- When charging, please do not leave the battery unattended.
- Do not connect the battery to the power supply for more than 24 hours after it is already fully charged.
- It is not recommended to connect third-party devices that consume more energy than the allowed value.
- The device is equipped with a short circuit protection system, but conditions that may lead to a short circuit should be avoided.
- Use the device at the recommended operating temperature from -20°C to +50°C. Do not use the device beyond this temperature range or it may shorten the battery life.
- When the device is used under sub-zero temperatures, the battery capacity drops. This is normal and does not indicate a defect.
Mounting and Usage
- Mounting on the weapon To ensure aiming accuracy, please fix the TUBE SE Series at a proper position on the weapon.
- TUBE SE Series needs to be fixed with an adapter clamp, such as a simple Picatinny rail clamp provided in the package. TUBE SE Series is designed with a 25.4mm diameter pipe and can be used with a standard clamp for 25.4mm diameter pipes. Proper Btools can be used to mount TUBE SE Series according to the supplier’s installation suggestions and steps.
- The mounting position should be adjusted according to the distance between the eye and eyepiece (eye relief) as specified in the specifications and the sense of use and comfort. If you fail to follow this suggestion, the eyepiece may hurt the shooter during the shooting.
- It is recommended to mount the scope as low as possible, but keep it away from the barrel or other devices.
- It is recommended to use a torque wrench to tighten the screws of the mounting clamp, so as to avoid damaging the scope body due to being over-tightened, and the recommended torque shall not exceed 2.5Nm.
- When the scope is used for hunting, please carry out the zeroing operation first according to the instructions as specified in Section Zeroing in this manual.
- When using the scope at night or in a dark environment, it is recommended to use an eyeshade to avoid being found

Technical Inspection
- Perform a technical inspection to check the following items each time before you use the device.
- Exterior of the device (no crack on the enclosure).
- Lens and eyepiece (no crack, oil, stain, or other sediments).
- Status of the rechargeable battery (fully charged in advance) and electrical contact (no salinization or oxidation).
Maintenance
- The maintenance should be carried out at least twice a year and includes the following steps:
- Wipe the surface of metal and plastic parts to clear off dust and dirt by using a cotton cloth. Silicone grease may be used for the cleaning process.
- Clean the electric contacts and battery slots on the device using a non-greasy organic solvent.
- Check the glass surface of the eyepiece and lens. If necessary, clear off the dust and sand on the lens (it is perfect to use a non-contact method). Use a specialized wiping tool and solvent to clean the optical surfaces.
Troubleshooting
- The following table lists all problems that are likely to occur during device operation.
- Check and address problems by referring to this table.
- If faults not included in this table occur or you cannot fix the fault, return the device to its vendor or supplier for troubleshooting.
Fault | Possible Causes | Solution |
---|---|---|
The scope cannot be started. | The battery is out of charge. | Charge |
The device cannot be powered by
using an external power supply.
| The USB cable is damaged.| Replace the USB cable.
The external power supply is insufficient.| If necessary, check the external
power supply.
Images are unclear, vertical lines are
present, or the background is not even.
|
Calibration is required.
| Calibrate the images as instructed in Chapter XIV of the
User Manual.
The image is too dark.| The screen is not bright enough.| Adjust the display brightness
The icons are clear but the image is blurry.
| The lens is not focused.| Rotate the lens focus ring to adjust the focus.
The inner or outer optical surface of the lens is dusted or iced.
| Wipe the outer optical surface by using a soft cotton cloth or
leave the scope to dry in a warm and dry environment for more than 4 hours.
The position of the reticle moves after shooting.
|
The scope or the clamp is not mounted firmly.
| Check whether the scope is mounted firmly.
Ensure that the bullet type and caliber you use are consistent with that used for zeroing.
If you have performed zeroing in summer but are using the scope in winter (or vice versa), the zeroing point may have
changed slightly.
The scope cannot focus.| Configuration error.| Set the scope according to
Section VII Mounting and Usage.
| | Check the outer surface of the objective lens and eyepiece, and if
necessary, wipe off any dust and frost on it.
In cold weather, a special antifogging coating can be applied
(such as those used on eyeglasses or car rearview mirrors).
---|---|---
The device cannot connect to a mobile phone or computer.
| The Wi-Fi password is incorrect.| Enter the correct password.
There are too many Wi-Fi networks in the range of the device, which may cause
interference.
| To enable stable network access, you are advised to move the device to an area with a limited number of Wi-Fi
networks, or an area without Wi-Fi coverage.
Wi-Fi signals are lost or interrupted.
| The device is beyond Wi-Fi coverage. There is blocking (such as concrete walls)
between the device and the receiver.
|
Move the device to a place where you can receive Wi-Fi signals.
The observed target disappears.
| You are observing the target through the
glass.
|
Observe the target directly without the presence of glass.
The image quality is poor or the
detection range shortens.
|
These problems are likely to occur when you use the device in harsh weather (such as snow, rain, fog).
When the device is used at a low temperature, the imaging quality is poorer than that at a normal
temperature.
| At temperatures above 0°C, the temperature rise varies with the observed objects (environment and background) due to different heat conductivity coefficients. As a result, high-temperature contrast occurs and the image quality is better.
At low temperatures, the observed targets (background) usually cool down to a similar temperature because of reduced temperature contrast. Therefore, the image quality (details in particular) is poor, which is a characteristic of thermal imaging devices.
