7. Trouble Shooting
Poor Image:
If you wear glasses, please keep them on while using the binocular.
During daylight hours, make sure the IR is off. For use during
nighttime hours, make sure the IR is on.
Adjust the focus by slowly turning the Focus Wheel at the front
bottom of the binocular. Make sure it is focused.
Why is “No SD Card” message showing on the screen while the
SD card has been inserted?
Please turn off the power, insert the card, and check again. The micro
SD card needs to be inserted when the power is off.
If the issue persists, please check the micro SD card compatibility. In
some cases, the micro SD card failed to be read because it was broke;
try inserting another Micro SD card
