1. Adjusting Focus
Rotate the Focus Adjustor located near the eyepiece until the image on the screen appears sharp and clear. This adjustment is crucial for optimal viewing at different distances.
2. Day and Night Vision Modes
The monocular operates in both day and night conditions. In daylight, it captures full-color images and videos. In low light or complete darkness, the device automatically switches to night vision mode, utilizing its infrared illuminator.
