Use of Compass (cont’d)
How to use the Digital Compass (cont’d)
Setting the Declination: The compass has to be switched off with no reading in the display. Press and hold the
bearing bar, at the same time, press the ON button. Then release both at once. The
reading 'd 00' is shown in the display (if there is a positive or negative number in this
location, it may mean that the setting has already been tested or established). Pressing the
BEARING bar while in a declination setting mode decreases the declination by 1 degree
increments, pressing the ON button increases the declination. After setting the current
local and correct declination, allow the compass to shut itself off and the declination will
be automatically saved and will be viewed during the start-up process (see above).
Display of Low Battery Warning: If the batteries need to be replaced, reading 'b---' will be displayed. If the
reading 'b---' appears, bearing may no longer be possible or displayed for
less then 10 seconds. The batteries are located on the large objective lens
side of the binocular under the thumb screw.
Other features: • Light entrance window (red window on compass).
Measures light and automatically adjusts LED display brightness.
• Reticle – to determing distance.
• Rubber armoured – for good grip and minimizes slipping on wet surfaces.
• Long Eye Relief - easy use with eye glasses by rolling down the eye cups.
