2.12 OBJECTIVE FOCUS

The objective lens must be focused for the viewing distance

being observed. Rotate the objective focus ring for best

image clarity. A change in viewing distance requires that the

objective lens be refocused. If already focused for a

distance of at least 15 meters (49 feet), no change in focus

is required between this distance and infinity. When the

WTM is not being used, install the objective lens cover over

the objective lens to protect it from possible damage.

2.13 STARTUP PROCEDURES

To achieve optimal performance and image clarity, the

following procedures should be accomplished in the order

presented, each time the WTM is to be used:

1. Turn on the WTM by pressing the

PWR button. Wait 2 to

5 seconds for the system prompt and press the

PWR

button again.

2. Install the objective lens cover and perform a calibration

as described in section 2.9.

3. Access the Main Menu by pressing the

PWR button.

While looking through the eyepiece display, rotate the

diopter adjuster until the menu text appears sharp and

clear.

4. Remove the objective lens cover and adjust the gain

setting as described in section 2.11 to achieve a

comfortable contrast level.

5. While looking through the eyepiece at an object at least

one meter away, rotate the objective focus ring to obtain

the best (sharpest) thermal image.
