SECTION 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
The Command is the latest and most technologically-advanced family of thermal imaging bi-oculars for the
sporting, law enforcement, and military markets. The Command product line is based on the FLIR Tau 2 VOx
microbolometer core, and is composed of different models – each optimized for performance, price, and state-
of-the-art technology that is suitable for a variety of uses and missions.
The Command is a solid state, uncooled, long-wave infrared, magnified, dedicated handheld thermal imager
intended for day and nighttime missions.
The 24/7 mission capability is only one of the strengths of the Command line. The thermal imaging technology
also allows you to detect targets by cutting through snow, dust, smoke, fog, haze, and other atmospheric
obscurants. Unlike the use of laser targeting or near-infrared illumination to augment night vision equipment,
the Command thermal imager is extremely difficult to detect with other devices, as it emits no visible light or
RF energy.
The Command is available in different versions, with optical magnifications ranging from 2x to 5x. Command
series also provides up to 8x digital zoom for models based on 640x512 cores and up to 4x digital zoom for
models based on a 336x256 core.
The Command is powered by two CR123A (2×3V) batteries. The Extended Battery Pack or 6VDC/ 600mA
power source can also be used to power the Command.
The Command can be controlled by a wireless remote control.
The Command is equipped with a standard NTSC/PAL video input/output function that makes it possible to
connect to an external video display or monitor, or to record thermal images for field documentation or training
purposes. It also allows the transmission of data from one remote display to that of the Command.
The Command can be used in conjunction with other equipment such as the Digital Video Recorder that can
be mounted onto the Command’ Picatinny/ Weaver rail.
Extremely reliable and versatile, the Command is a highly useful thermal imaging system.

SECTION 2
DESCRIPTION AND DATA
2.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Command consists of next primary parts: a body, a lens assembly and an eyepiece assembly. Figure
2-1 represents two versions of the equipment: one including a 50mm focal length objective lens, 75mm
focal length objective lens, and the other with a 100mm focal length objective lens.
The Command is a thermosensitive device. It senses the differences in heat emitted by objects in its field
of view, and converts the received temperature pattern into a viewable image that represents the scene
in contrasting black & white or color patterns, depending on the user’s selected image palette.
NOTE:
It is important that the Command sensor receive sufficient thermal contrast between the target
and background area, or between the different parts of a target. For example, the vast temperature
contrast between the snow and any heat target (such as an animal) makes it very easy to distinguish
the target.
The main optical-electronic components of the Command include: an objective Germanium thermal lens,
two eyepieces, a thermal-imaging camera, a display, a control card, and a button control panel.
The Command is equipped with manual eyepiece and objective lens focusing.
To accommodate individual user needs, the Command has a variety of digitally controlled options such as:
• Display Brightness
• Digital Zoom

• Palette Color Selection
• User-Controlled Manual Non-Uniformity Correction/ Flat-Field Correction (UCMNUC/ FFC)
• Imaging Enhancements
• Custom Settings
All Command devices are based on FLIR Tau 2 cameras that allow for improvements in overall image
quality in a wide range of dynamic thermal environments. The Command has employed special user-
adjustable imaging tools that include:
• Active Contrast Enhancement (ACE) – a digital “Contrast” correction that allows for smart
scene optimization based on dynamic adjustments, where a variety of contrast levels occur
depending on relative scene temperature.
• Second Generation Digital Detail Enhancement (DDE) – a “Sharpness” correction that
digitally enhances the picture, significantly sharpens edges, and further reduces image noise.
• Smart Scene Optimization (SSO) – a fine-tuning computational correction that significantly
improves overall visual acuity for targets that have thermal signatures similar to the surrounding
background.
• Information-Based Histogram Equalization (IBHEQ) – a “Sky/Sea” enhancement –
information-based environment dependent algorithm that automatically adjusts camera gain and
excludes pixels determined to not contain critical information. Specifically helpful in scenes with
great expanses of visible sky or water.
• User-Controlled Manual Non-Uniformity Correction/ Flat-Field Correction (UCMNUC/
FFC). There is a mechanical shutter between the camera sensor and the lens. This shutter is used
to perform a non-uniformity correction (NUC), also known as flat-field correction (FFC). During FFC,
the shutter presents a uniform temperature source to each detector element in the array. While
imaging the flat-field source, the camera updates the offset correction coefficients, resulting in a
more uniform image after the process is complete. All Command models allow for user to manually
trigger or interrupt scheduled UCMNUC/ FFC function.
• Silent Shutterless NUC™ (SSN) – In addition to User-Controlled Manual NUC/ FFC, all
Command models employ a digital, supplemental, non-mechanical flat-field correction that extends
periods between mechanical shutter events and further reduces image noise. SSN is an always
ON enhancement.
Information on the current operating state (battery status, active function in the display etc.) is
continuously displayed, making field operation of the Command simple and convenient.
Manufactured for exceptional durability, the Command has a lightweight and robust aluminum body. A
side Picatinny/ Weaver rail allows for the installation of an optional Digital Video Recorder, extended
battery pack, or other equipment.
A standard NTSC/PAL video input/ output connector enables an external video display (monitor/ TV) or
video recorder to be connected to the Command. An external 6VDC/600mA power source can also be
connected to the Command.
The Command is powered by two CR123A (2×3V) batteries.
Figure 2-2 shows the Command. The ITEM NO. column of Table 2-1 indicates the number used to identify
items in Figure 2-2.
