Working Principle:

The TR-IR NV100 digital night vision device collects external
light through the objective lens and converts it into an electrical
signal using the digital CMOS sensor module. The optical signal is
then transmitted to the micro liquid crystal display (LCD) on the
eyepiece, allowing you to view the image.

The LCD display image can be magnified by 2x/3x/4x/5x
(optional). The device also features a built-in IR (infrared) fill
light that enables clear viewing in low ambient light conditions or
complete darkness.

DIGITAL INFRARED NIGHT VISION USER MANUAL

Overview
This product adopts low illumination at night, Sony dynamic CMOS sensor imported from Japan, and external infrared light for auxiliary lighting, which can obtain excellent observation effect no matter in day or night. The novel patented internal structure design greatly improves the observation effect and observation experience. The built-in infrared color filter greatly improves the observation effect of the device during the day, reduces the overexposure under the natural light, restores more realistic colors, and truly realizes the dual-use of day and night. The color of observation during the day is more realistic, the observation target at night is clearer, and the observation distance can reach 200m under the condition of total darkness. It combines the functions of taking pictures, tape-recording and video-recording, and can record beautiful moments even at night.
It is mainly used for outdoor night vision, animal observation, hunting, outdoor adventure, search and rescue, and can be used with gun sniper scope to complete the night hunting.

Installation Instructions
Battery Installation Please use one 3.7V 18500 Li-ion battery. Remove battery compartment cap and make sure setting the positive polar towards to the direction inward.Put the cap back and screw it until tight. Adjustments After the battery is installed, firstly adjust the eyepiece diopter, rotate the night vision device eyepiece diopter adjustment ring until the four-corner text icon on the screen is clearly displayed (no need to see the image clearly), and then adjust the night vision device objective lens focusing ring until the target is clearly seen; If it is used together with an optical telescope, it is necessary to install a circular adapter and fix it behind the optical telescope. The focusing ring of the objective lens of the night vision device can be rotated until the reticle of the optical telescope is clearly seen, and then the basic adjustment is completed. Adapter Installation 1 Connect the night vision device to the adapter, put it into the eyepiece of the optical telescope until the bottom, and observe the gap between the adapter and the eyepiece of the optical telescope. It is recommended that the gap between the adapter and the eyepiece of the optical telescope be less than 0.1mm, and the adapter is suitable for eyepieces with a diameter of 45mm. If the gap is insufficient, you can wrap it with electrical glue until the gap is less than 0.1mm. The reticle of the optical telescope can be seen clearly by adjusting the focusing ring of the objective lens of the night vision device, and the reticle of the optical telescope can be rotated by turning the night vision device, and finally the adapter screw can be fixed with the hexagon socket. 2 On the TR-IR NV100 device, use an L-shaped hexagonal screwdriver to turn the hexagonal screw that locks the night vision device and the snap ring counterclockwise, then you can separate the adapter.

1 Keep the device away from any heating, air conditioning vents or other heating equipment, direct sunlight and moisture.
2 Always store the device in a suitcase in a dry, well-ventilated space with a temperature above +15°C (60°F) and below +48°C (118°F). Do not store near heating equipment, direct sunlight or high humidity (above 70%).
3 Clean the optical lens with camera lens cleaning products, and clean the outside of the device with a clean soft cloth.
4 If the device is not used for more than a few weeks, please remove the battery. 5 Do not drop or shake the device in other ways. Although it has a rugged shockproof design for outdoor use, the device contains complex digital circuitry that can be damaged in extreme circumstances. 6 Do not open the device or attempt to repair the device in other ways. 7 Do not pour alcohol or any other liquid directly onto the lens surface. 8 Do not use paper products (such as newspaper, textbook paper, etc.) to clean the surface of the lens and unit, because it may damage the coating. 9 Do not attempt to remove the eyepiece, as the LCD display may be damaged. 10 Do not place the device in direct sunlight or rain.The device is waterproof, but not suitable for prolonged use which exposed to moisture and cannot be immersed in water. 11 Wait at room temperature for at least 3 hours after the equipment is operated at temperatures below zero degrees Celsius to avoid the accumulation of condensed water on the internal surface of the lens and the consequent atomization temperature difference due to extreme conditions.
Troubleshooting
(1). The device does not turn on 1 Reinstall the battery and ensure that the polarity (+/- terminal) direction is
correct. Please refer to the silkscreen instructions on the battery installation direction on the cover.
2 Replace the battery. 3 Clean the battery compartment, especially the contact points. (2). Image Fuzzy 1 Refocus by adjusting the objective lens focusing ring. 2 Adjust the diopter setting by rotating the eyepiece as necessary until the display icon is clear. 3 Check the condition of the objective lens surface and eyepiece, and clean it if necessary. (3). In low-light conditions, the image disappears or degrades in quality. First make sure you are in night mode and activate infrared lighting, while bright light sources (such as street lamps at night) may cause reduced visibility or contrast, keep the device away from the light source and the visibility will be restored immediately. (4). Images viewed or recorded at night appear black and white. This is a normal phenomenon and color cannot be reproduced in dim conditions when infrared lighting is used as the primary source of light. (5). When taking photos or recording videos, it is prompted that “Please insert TF card”. 1 Check if the insertion method of the TF card is correct. 2 Press the menu button and format the TF card.
