Unit flashes
It is normal for the unit to flash within the first 2 minutes of activation. If the
flashing continues afterwards the following is a possible cause: bright
environment (even with the cap closed!)
Condensation accumulates on the parts.
It is O.K. to use the scope in cold. However, when the unit is brought from
the cold into a warm environment, it has to warm up for up to 5 hours (not
minutes!). Only then it is allowed to turn it ON again.
Visibility decreases and / or disappears.
Bright light sources (moon, projectors or headlights) may cause visibility to
degrade or even completely disappear. Move the scope away from the light
source immediately.
• NS-156 is a safe product. However, normal safety procedures
must be utilized like with regular daytime riflescope.
• The reticles is always in one plane with the image of the target
which makes surveillance and aiming even more comfortable;
• Smooth adjustment of lighting brightness on the reticles enables
aimed fire at targets differently illuminated and also provides the
possibility to adjust the optimum level of reticles lighting that is
most comfortable for the viewer.
• A small-sized adjustment mechanism which is built-in the lens
allows vertical and horizontal adjustments of the reticule;
• The size of the battery compartment allows the use of optional
rechargeable batteries as well as standard AA batteries commonly
available;
• Weaver type mount on the sight;
• Soft rubberized eyepiece makes the viewing more comfortable.
