OPERATION PRINCIPLES

MECHANICAL FUNCTIONS

The FoxBat-LE includes mechanical adjustments to accommodate physical differences between individual users. Functional features include the power

OPTICAL FUNCTIONS

The optical functions include an objective lens, image intensifier, a collimator lens, and two eyepieces. The objective lens collects light reflected from the moon, stars, or other ambient light in the environment, and inverts and focuses an image of the scene onto the image intensifier. The image intensifier converts the captured light into a visible image, re- inverting it so that can be viewed though eyepiece lens.

ELECTRICAL FUNCTIONS

Power Source
The electronic circuit is powered by replaceable batteries; you have the option of using either a 3.0 Volt Lithium battery BA-5567/U or two AA 1.5 Volt Alkaline batteries BA-3O5S/U. The Sioux850 detachable long-range infrared IR illuminator is powered by a separate 18650 rechargeable battery.

Function Switch

Power from the batteries is supplied to the components through the function switch as follows

  • RESET/OFF Position. With the switch in the OFF position, the circuit will not supply energy to the image intensifier or the IR illuminator. You can also turn the switch to this position to reset your device after automatic shut-off or bright light cutoff.
  • ON Position. Energy is drawn from the battery compartment to power the bi-ocular. When the voltage drops to 2.4 VDC, a low battery indicator will begin to blink on the right side of the eyepiece, indicating approximately 30 minutes of remaining power.
  • IR/PULL Position. Energy is drawn from the battery compartment to power the bi-ocular and built-in IR light source, and a steady red indicator light will appear in the left side region of the eyepiece. The IR can be activated momentarily by turning the switch ON without pulling the knob.

Bright Light Cutoff
The bi-ocular will automatically shut off after 70 ±30 seconds of operation in daylight or bright room light. Individual bright lights (headlights, flashlights, or other concentrated light sources) will not activate this function, unless the high light detector on the front of the bi-ocular is pointed directly at the light source. To turn the bi-ocular back on in the event that this function is triggered, flip the switch to RESET/OFF and then back to ON again.
