APPLICATION

The NVSG1/NVSG2IA night vision weapon scope is a complex computerized system for the obser-

vation of objects at low light levels. Containing an onboard computer these scopes are some of the

most advanced night vision weapon scopes in the world.

The NVSG1/NVSG2IA consists of the objective lens assembly, ocular lens assembly and the body.

Th e b o d y c ontains t he imag e intensifier tu be assembly w ith the integrated hig h volt age power source.

Th e b o d y also houses the electronics for t he ret i c le, the c o m puter console for the “ Smar t Techno logy ”

as well as the battery compartment. The 100M infra-red illuminator is located on the top of the unit.

The objective lens protective cover is designed to protect the lens from scratches and abrasions. This

cover also protects the image intensifier tube from exposure to daylight or other bright light sources.

The protective cover acts as a daylight filter, note the hole in the center of the lens cap.

MASTER POWER SWITCH

The Master ON/OFF switch is to be found on top of the

NVSG1/NVSG2IA. Once the scope’s master power is

switched on you can adjust the scope using the but-

tons on the control panel.

CONTROL PANEL

The control panel with the cluster of three buttons on it can be found on the left side of the NVSG1/

NVSG2IA. ”SL” button acts as a three-way selection toggle. By pressing it once you will see one

of three colored diodes located on the rear side of the scope light up. Make sure to keep both

eyes open; your right eye is expected to aim through the scope so that your left eye perceives the

changes on the rear side of the control box. “+” and “-” buttons are used to correspondingly increase

or decrease adjustments for a chosen function.

The three colored led diodes represent the scope function mode. “B” stands for brightness of the

light intensifier tube, “R”- for reticle brightness, and “I”- for IR illuminator brightness.

IMAGE INTENSIFIER TUBE BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT

The green led “B” represents the light intensifier tube

power ratio. Once this is lit you can adjust the brightness

of the image intensifier with the “+” and “-” adjustment

buttons.

INFRA-RED ILLUMINATION

By pressing “SL” button three times you can switch to Red

diode “I”. Red diode represents 100M infra-red illumina-

tor’s brightness adjustment mode. Adjustments can be

easily observed through the Aries scope while pressing

”+” /” -” adjustment buttons.

Infra-red illuminators, or IR illuminators, are common to

night vision. The IR light greatly enhances to the per form-

ance of the NVSG1/NVSG2IA while remaining almost

totally invisible to the unaided eye.

Power up the scope in a dark environment. Find an object

and examine it with IR off, then on. You could observe

illumination difference. It is important to remember that

the IR illuminator is simply an infra-red light source and

like any light source it may loose its effectiveness over

long distances.

To change the field of coverage from the IR illuminator,

focus the beam by turning IR illuminator lens to slightly

alter the beam width.

RETICLE BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT

By pressing the SL button twice you switch to a yellow “R”

diode nex t to the green one. The yellow diode represents

the reticle’s brightness. Adjustments could be easily seen

if you look through the NVSG1/NVSG2IA while pressing

“ +” /” -” adjustment buttons.

To adjust the brightness of the reticle or to turn it off use

the control box buttons located on the side of the unit.

Press and hold “+“ or ”-” adjustment buttons while the

yellow diode is on and see brightness changes looking

through the scope. After appropriate level of brightness

has been set release the button.

SLEEP MODE

One of the greatest new features that your Smart scope has is the SLEEP mode. This feature has

been designed to considerably extend the period of scope’s functioning, to set the scope to memo-

rize your initial settings and endure battery’s life (by settings we mean only digital settings which

include brightness of the tube, brightness of the reticle, and magnitude of the IR.) Here is a descrip-

tion as to now the sleep mode functions:

The scope will automatically shut down if it does not sense any activity (i.e. pressing any of the but-

tons or simply moving the scope back and forth away from your face) for 20 minutes. When activat-

ing the sleep mode the scope will first warn you by turning off the reticle for 10 seconds. If you intend

to keep using the scope simply touch any key and the scope will reactivate.

One of the reasons for the SLEEP mode being programmed into your scope is to keep the image

intensifier tube and batteries safe in case you forget to turn your unit off. If you notice that the reticle

turned off after 20 minutes just push the SL button and the scope will return to its previous settings.

To put your scope in the “SLEEP” mode any time, just push the SL button and “-” simultaneously.

Push SL to return to previous settings and the SMART scope will remember them. This feature will

come very handy, if you are waiting for game to come: you can prepare all of the settings, place

the unit in SLEEP mode and activate it precisely when you need it. To disable the proximity sensor

press SL and “+” simultaneously. In order to turn the proximity sensor back on, press SL and “+”

simultaneously again.

NOTE: The scope is capable of running in SLEEP mode for more than 10 (ten) days and is ready for

use at any moment. Remember, you don’t have to turn the unit off while you are using it “Smart” sight

remembers all the settings). Use the master ON/OFF switch only to store the scope.

PROXIMITY SENSOR

If you turn the proximity sensor on it will activate the

sc o pe when brought to your eye. The proximity sensor

disables the scope when you take it away from your

face. This feature has been introduced to prolong the

life of the tube and the battery.

To turn the proximity sensor on press SL and + at the

same time.

To disable the proximity sensor press SL and + at the

same time again.

NOTE: Proximity sensor would not turn on automatically

after master power has been switched on.

FOCUSING

To focus the NVSG1/ NVSG2IA you nee d to adjust the diopter first. Simply tur n the diopter clock wise

until it stops. Then concentrate on any object and slowly turn the diopter back counter clockwise

until the grain in the image is sharp.

When you are under low-light conditions and the daylight filter is off you may focus the front lens for

the image to be sharp. The diopter is not to be adjusted.

NOTE: The front lens should be readjusted for viewing objects at different distances.

You scope has ability to focus either long range or short.

Next, focus the front lens by rotating the knob until the image and the grain are both sharp. When

you are in the low-light conditions and the daylight filter is off you may focus the front lens to receive

a sharp image, the diopter should not be adjusted.

NOTE:To remove the front lens to clean, you must unlock the above set screw.

MOUNTING

The ATN Night Vision Riflescopes Mounting System

allows to change the position of the riflescope flexibly

on the weapon in relation to a shooter in combination

with the fixed positions already available on the weav-

er rail. For this purpose in the base of the mounting

bracket there is a rail with a fixing projection. There

are three grooves in the mounting bracket for mount-

ing this rail. Besides it is possible to change the posi-

tion of the riflescope additionally by 1/3 of inch. For

doing this one needs to about-face the rail.

To change the position of the riflescope on the

weaver rail additionally follow the steps mentioned

below:

1. Unscrew the two screws, which attach the rail to

the mounting bracket.

2. Take the rail out of the groove.

3. About-face the rail in case of necessity.

4. Place the rail into another groove.

5. Fix the rail with the two screws.

NOTE: If the rail is not taken out easily, screw up tight one of screws into the threaded aperture in the

middle of a fixing projection of the rail. Continue rotation of the screw. Thus the screw will push out a rail

from a groove.

WINDAGE AND ELEVATION

The vertical and horizontal adjustments for

the scopecan be achieved by turning the

elevation and windage adjustment mecha-

nisms (remove dust caps first).Each click

equals to 1/8 inch at 100 yards. Do not use

force having reached the maximum of rota-

tion.

USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

Below the control panel you can find the panel with two

screws to fix NVSG1/NVSG2IA.

To plug in the remote control, remove the screws and the

small panel to disclose the inlet.

The three remote control buttons’ function similarly to con-

trol panel buttons. Once the remote control is plugged in,

you may use both panels to adjust the scope.

The remote control can be attached to the weapon of your

choice through whatever means best suiting your shooting

style and grip. We suggest an elastic Velcro® loop fastener

similar to the trigger switches found on the weapon.

RETICLE PATTERNS

The NVSG1/NVSG2IA scope comes with five reticle patterns:

• Dot

• Post

• Post with Dot

• Open Cross Hair

• Cross Hair

You can choose your preferred pat-

tern by pushing the Reticle Pattern

PREPARATION FOR OPERATION

Before getting started make sure to follow these steps:

• Take the scope out of the case.

• Insert the batteries into their housing with the polarity order shown on the main body of the unit.

• Switch on your NVSG1/NVSG2IA scope by the master power switch make sure the protective lens

cover is still attached to the lens.

• We expect your right eye to aim through the scope. Keep both of your eyes open so you are able to

see the color-coded LEDs with your left eye.

• In order to assure the proper functioning of the proximity sensor make certain that the protective

glass surface of the sensor is always clean.

• When the scope is first powered up the initial settings are:

- Image intensifier tube brightness -100%

- Reticle brightness -100%

- Illuminator brightness -100%.

• Observe the scene and adjust the diopter for optimal image clarity.

• You may now enter the dark environment or simply shut the lights off in order to darken the room.

• Remove the lens cap/daylight filter.

• Observe the scene and adjust the front lens for ideal focus.

• Adjust the digital features as needed.

• To increase the battery life the LED diodes go off after 10 seconds.

• You will need to focus for different distances.

• Take your time to learn about your “Smart” scope. It will take practice to properly use this device.

As you use this scope you will be able to improve your speed of focusing, as well as sharpness of

image.

CLEANING THE EYEPIECE

You may need to clean the eyepiece of the riflescope from time to time in order to guarantee top per-

formance. When you receive your riflescope you should check for dust on the eyepiece of the unit.

You can remove the eyepiece. For cleaning unscrew the eyepiece counter-clockwise to remove it.

CAUTION: Use only Photographic lens cleaning tissue on these surfaces. Be careful not to scratch

or smudge any of these surfaces. When using compressed air to blow dust away, make sure to avoid

inverting the can while spraying. This can cause frozen propellant to exit the can, which can cause

serious problems with the glass and phosphor screen.

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

• Always remember to turn off the NVSG1/NVSG2IA when it is not in use. If you do not plan on using

your aries scope for a period of more than 10 days, you should remove the batteries.

• Keep lens cap/daylight filter on when not in use.

• Avoid contact with dust, steam, and gas.

• The NVSG1/NVSG2IA is not harmful to the user or the environment.

• Do not disassemble except to clean the front lens and the eyepiece: it will void your warranty.

• Evaluate the scopes function by looking through it in a lit environment with the daylight filter lens

cap on. Never use in daylight without the daylight filter lens cap on. Do not surpass ten minutes

of testing.

• Never point the NVSG1/NVSG2IA at a bright light source. If the scope shuts off automatically after

directing it at a bright light source, turn the unit off and wait 1 - 2 minutes before turning the unit

back on.

• Adverse atmospheric conditions such as fog, smog, or haze and a lack of ambient light (moon or

starlight) may diminish the effective viewing distance. All technical data for this unit was compiled

in a controlled environment.

• If you use the rubber eyecaps for a long period of time, you may suffer skin inflammation. If you

develop any symptoms, consult a doctor immediately.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Q: Flashes, flickers, or clicking occur while operating

S: If it occurs within the first five minutes of inserting new batteries, it is normal and the device will

resume normal operation soon thereafter. If it occurs for more than 10 minutes, contact your dealer

or other authorized service representative for service instructions.

Q: Dark spots on screen.

S: These are cosmetic blemishes in the intensifier tube. They are a by-product of the process of

manufacturing night vision tubes. They will not impede your viewing ability.

Q: Image not clear.

S: Adjust focus ring. If problem persists, increase viewing distance

Q: Fixed-pattern noise in a honeycomb shape.

S: Usually a cosmetic blemish characterized by a faint honeycomb-type pattern. This usually occurs

when viewing very bright lights. Adjust the potentiometer, to reduce brightness.

Q: A pattern of dark thin lines which look like chicken wire.

S: Turn on illuminator, if purchased. If illuminator doesn’t brighten image, replace batteries. If

problem persists, contact ATN for service instructions.
