Getting started

Install batteries

Open the battery compartment cover and insert the battery according to the correct polarity marks. Close the cover.

Charging the device

Connect the power cable to the device and the DC adapter (not included) via a USB plug and connect it to the AC power supply.
Attention! The device operates from the AC power supply, as the voltage of the computer’s USB port is insufficient for the proper operation of the device.

Installing/removing the memory card

The device supports memory cards class 10 up to 128GB.
Insert the microSD card into the slot. Make sure the direction is right. Do not force the card in.
Format the microSD card before starting, as it will improve its compatibility with the device.
To remove the card from the slot, press the edge of the memory card in gently, and the card will pop out. Then, remove the card.
Note: If the memory card is not installed, a No Card icon will be displayed.

Button panel and device settings

A long press will turn the device on/off and zoom in/out the image. For the other functions, use a short press.

POWER button

Press and hold the POWER button for 3 seconds to turn the device on or off.
This button switches between 3 in-built modes: 1) photo mode; 2) video mode; and 3) playback mode.
The default mode is photo mode.
Turn the focusing wheel to adjust the focus.
Notes:

If the device fails to activate, check for defective or improperly installed batteries. Always only use the recommended batteries.
If you wear glasses, keep them on while using the device.

ZOOM IN/OUT button

Press the ZOOM IN/OUT button to get a continuously increasing magnification from 4x to 32x.
Button functions: 1) zoom in/out; 2) exposure level up/down; 3) scroll the menu.

IR button

When in Photo or Video mode, press the IR button to enter the Starlight mode. In Starlight mode the monocular can detect infrared light below 1200nm, but does not emit any infrared light. Press the IR button again to activate the IR LED light. On top of the screen, a red IR LED light indicator will appear. Press the IR button again to turn the IR light off.

Notes:

Do not use IR in daylight (when IR is on, you will have a color image, when IR is off — black and white image).
If the battery power is not enough, the IR LED level will lower automatically. If only half power is left, the max. brightness level is 5. If only 25% power is left, the max. brightness level is 3. If the battery power is lower than 25%, the IR LED cannot be activated.

To change the settings, press the MENU button and highlight the desired menu item by scrolling up (+) or down (–).
Select the highlighted item by pressing the MENU button.
In the menu, you can select photo or video resolution, night vision sensitivity, change the language, set the date, set auto power off, put the date on photos or videos, format the memory card, view and delete the current file or all files from the memory card, etc.

Note: To get to the submenu of the playback mode, you need to select the playback mode first (MODE button).

Button functions: 1) takes a picture in Photo mode; 2) starts and stops video recording in Video mode; 3) enters the sub-menu.

Battery safety instructions

Always purchase the correct size and grade of battery most suitable for the intended use. Always replace the whole set of batteries at one time; taking care not to mix old and new ones, or batteries of different types. Clean the battery contacts and also those of the device prior to battery installation. Make sure the batteries are installed correctly with regard to polarity (+ and –). Remove batteries from equipment that is not to be used for an extended period of time. Remove used batteries promptly. Never short-circuit batteries as this may lead to high temperatures, leakage, or explosion. Never heat batteries in order to revive them. Do not disassemble batteries. Remember to switch off devices after use. Keep batteries out of the reach of children, to avoid risk of ingestion, suffocation, or poisoning.
