CAUTION:
Avoid exposing the device to bright light sources such as relight, headlights, searchlights, etc.,
as these can damage the CO-MINI.
5. To operate the CO-MINI in short-time activation mode, put the device in standby mode. To activate
the CO-MINI, press and hold the remote control button. Release the remote control button to deac-
tivate the CO-MINI.
6. Observe the scene. Adjust the image contrast by rotating the gain control knob (CO-MINI MG only).
7. If the day scope includes a focusing ring (i.e., parallax adjustment knob), adjust the focus for a paral-
lax-free image.
8. Turn on the day scope’s reticle illumination and adjust the reticle brightness.
CAUTION:
Do not leave the CO-MINI activated if it is not being used.
NOTE:
Automatic interrupting time is 60 minutes. To resume operation, you will need to restart the
CO-MINI.
3.3.2 OPERATING THE IR850

CAUTION:
The light from the IR illuminator will be invisible to the naked eye. However, the light can be
detected by other NVDs.
