Description
Axion FIR-matrix (microbolometer) based thermal imaging monoculars are represented by
a number of models that differ in magnification and lens diameter.
These devices are designed for use both at night-time and during the day in difficult
weather conditions (fog, smog, rain), as well as where obstacles are present that impede
the detection of a target (branches, tall grass, dense shrubs etc.).
Unlike night-vision devices that are based on electron-optical converters, thermal
vision monoculars do not require an external light source and are resistant to the
effects of bright light.
Axion Fmonoculars can be used for night-time hunting, observation and terrain
orientation, and carrying out rescue operations.

Battery Charging
The Axion F thermal imager comes with an APS 3 rechargeable Lithium-ion battery. Before
first use, make sure the battery is fully charged.
Option 1

1. Install the battery (10) into its slot on the device case (14) by aligning the icons
to form a ‘dot’ on the unit and the battery.
2. Attach a USB cable (15)to the microUSB connector (8) on the device.
3. Connect the other end of the USB cable (15) to the power adapter (16) or to a USB
socket connected to another power sources with rated output of 5V or less.
4. Connect the power adapter (16) to the mains power supply (17).
5. Wait until the battery is fully charged (indication in the status bar: )
Note: The PB8I Power Bank may be used as a charger.
Option 2

1. Insert the battery (10) fully along the guide rail into the APS* charger slot (11).
2. Point A on the battery and Point B on the charger should be aligned.
3. Two batteries* can be charged at the same time – a second slot is provided for
this.
4. Attach the microUSB plug on the USB cable (15) to the microUSB connector on the
power adapter (16). Plug the device into a 100–240V power outlet (17).
5. Attach the second plug of the microUSB cable to the socket (12) of the charger
(11).
6. The LED indicator (13)will light up battery charge status (see table).
7. Wait until the battery is fully charged (LED indication (13): ).

**The indicator displays the current level of charge of the battery for 30 seconds
when the APS charger is not plugged in. When the power is connected, the display shows
the current status of the battery constantly, the LEDs additionally flickering to
indicate the battery charging process.

Battery Installation
1. Insert the battery (10) into the assigned slot on the device’s casing (14),
aligning the images to form a ‘dot’ on the instrument (C) and the battery (A).
2. When properly installed, the battery is locked into the slot with a special clip.
3. To remove the battery from the device, press the Battery Release button (9).

External Power Supply
Show device diagram
Image not found or type unknown

External power is supplied from an external source, such as a 5V Power Bank.
1. Attach the external power source to the device's USB connector (8).
2. The device will switch to operation from the external power source, while the APS3
battery will be gradually recharged.
3. An icon of a battery will appear on the display showing its charge as a
percentage.
4. If the device is operated from an external power source and the APS3 battery is
not connected, an icon is displayed.
5. When the external power supply is disconnected, the device switches to the
internal power supply without the device powering off.
Important!Power Bank must be connected to the device with the battery installed.
Attention! Charging Power Bank APS3 batteries at air temperatures below 0 °C can

result in reduced battery life. When using external power, connect Power Bank to the
switched-on riflescope, which have worked for several minutes. External power is
supplied from an external source, such as a 5V Power Bank.

Precautions
Always use the APS charger to charge APS batteries. Using an unsuitable charger
can cause irreparable damage to the battery and fire.
Do not charge the battery immediately after bringing it from cold to warm. Wait at
least 30 minutes for the battery to warm up.
Do not leave the battery unattended while charging.
Do not use the charger if it has been modified or damaged.
Do not leave the battery in a charger connected to the mains after charging is
complete.
Do not expose the battery to high temperatures or naked flames.
Do not use the battery as a power source for devices that do not support APS 5
batteries.
Do not disassemble or deform the battery or charger.
Do not drop or strike the battery or charger.
The battery and charger must not be immersed in water.
Keep the battery out of the reach of children.

Recommendations for Use
The batteries should be partially charged (50 to 80 %) for long-term storage.
The battery is to be charged at an ambient temperature of 0 °C to +35 °C or the
lifespan of the battery will decrease significantly.
When using the battery at sub-zero ambient temperatures, the battery capacity
decreases. This is normal and not a defect.
Do not use the battery at temperatures outside the range of -25 °C to +40 °C or it
may reduce battery life.
The battery is short circuit protected. However, any situation that may cause
short-circuiting should be avoided.

Powering on and Image Setting
Show device diagram
1. Remove the lens cover (7). Secure the cover to the strap using the magnet built
into the cover.
2. Turn the device on with a short press of the ON/OFF (5)
3. Adjust the resolution of the icons on the display by rotating the diopter
adjustment ring on the eyepiece (1).
4. To focus on the object under observation, rotate the lens focus ring (6).
5. Select the desired calibration mode in the main menu: Manual (M), Semi-automatic
(SA) or Automatic (A).

6. Calibrate the image with a short press of the ON/OFF (5) button (where
calibration mode SA or M has been selected). Close the lens cap before manual
calibration.
7. Select the required amplification level (“Normal” , “High”
, “Ultra” ) by briefly pressing the UP (4) button.
8. Activate the quick menu by briefly pressing the MENU (3) button to adjust the
brightness, contrast and smooth digital zoom (for more details see the Quick Menu
section).
9. Turn the device off with a long press of the ON/OFF (5).
Attention! It is forbidden to point the riflescope lens at intensive energy sources,
such as laser radiation emitting devices or the sun. It can disable the riflescope
electronic components. Warranty does not cover damage arising from failure to comply
with the operating rules.
