Description
Axion 2thermal imaging monoculars are designed for use both at night-
time and during the day and provide exceptional image quality even in
adverse weather conditions (fog, smog, rain) and beyond obstacles like
branches, tall grass, dense foliage, etc. known to hinder target detection.
Unlike night-vision devices based on electron-optical converters, thermal
imaging devices do not need an external light source and are resistant to
bright light.
Axion 2thermal imagers are designed for various applications including
hunting, observation, security, terrain orientation, search and rescue
operations, etc.

Battery Charging
The Axion 2thermal imager comes with an APS 5 rechargeable Lithium-ion
battery. APS 5 batteries support USB Power Delivery fast charging
technology when using a standard charging set (charger*, USB Type-C
cable, power adapter). Before first use, make sure the battery is fully
charged.
Option 1

device.
3. Connect the other end of the USB cable (17) to the Power Adapter
(18).
4. Plug the Power Adapter (18) into a 100-240 V socket.
5. Wait until the battery is fully charged (indication in the status bar:
Image not found or type unknown
).
Option 2
Image not found or type unknown

1. Insert the APS 5 battery (13) along the guide into the APS 5 charger*
(15) slot as far as it will go.
2. Connect the plug of the USB Type-C cable (17) to the USB Type-C
connector of the Power Adapter(18).
3. Plug the Power Adapter (18) into a 100-240 V socket.
4. Connect the other end of the USB Type-C cable (17) to the USB Type-C
connector (15)of the charger.
5. LED indicators (16) will display the battery charge level (see Table).

6. Wait until the battery is fully charged (LED indication (16):
).
Note: Two batteries can be charged at the same time, a second slot is
provided for it.

* Available separately
** Standby mode is when the batteries are in the charger but the Power
Adapter is not connected. In this mode, the indicators are only on for 10
seconds.
Attention! When using a Power Adapter that does not support USB Power
Delivery fast charging technology, the flicker frequency of the LED
indicators decreases by a factor of 3 and the charge time increases.
Attention! The charger heats up during fast charging. Excess heat is
removed through the radiator and does not affect the device operation.

Battery Installation
1. Put the Lock-cover (12) on the rechargeable APS 5 battery (11).
2. Insert the APS 5 battery (11) along the guide into the battery
compartment (13).
3. Lock the battery (11) by turning the Lock-cover (12)clockwise until it
stops.
4. Turn the Lock-cover (12) counter-clockwise to remove the battery (11).

External Power Supply
Show device diagram
External power can be supplied from an external source, such as a Power
Bank (5 V, 9 V).
1. Connect the external power source to the USB Type-C connector (9) on
the device.
2. The device will switch to draw power from the external source while the
АPS5 battery is gradually recharged.
3. A battery icon will appear on the display showing the percentage-
charged level.
4. An icon will be displayed when the device is powered by an

external power source and the АPS5 battery is not connected.
5. The device automatically switches to the APS 5 battery when the
external power supply is disconnected.
Attention!Charging APS 5 batteries from an external source at
temperatures below 0°C (<32°F) can reduce battery life. When using
external power, connect the power bank to the device only after it has been
turned on and working (warming) for at least several minutes.

Precautions
Always use the APS 5 charger (purchased separately) to charge APS 5
batteries. Using an unsuitable charger can cause irreparable damage to
the battery and fire.
Do not charge the battery immediately after exposure to a cold
environment. Let the battery warm for at least 30 minutes before
charging.
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 plugged-in charger after charging is
complete.
Do not expose the battery to high temperatures or open 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.
Protect the battery and charger from water and moisture.
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.
Charge at an ambient temperature of 0°C to +35°C (32°F to 95°F) or
the lifespan of the battery will decrease significantly.
Using the battery at sub 0°C (<32°F) ambient temperature decreases
battery capacity. This is normal and not a defect.
Using the battery at temperatures outside the range of -25°C to +40°C (-
13°F to 104°F) may reduce battery life.
The battery is short-circuit protected. Any situation that may cause
short-circuiting should be avoided.
