OVERVIEW OF FUNCTIONS
As the first smart binoculars, the AX Visio with integrated apps open up access to nature and learning experiences with useful
extra functions and different identification options – combined with outstanding optical observation quality.
Thanks to integrated apps, the AX Visio binoculars function independently and separately from the
smartphone. The smartphone apps are required to change settings and transfer data between the AX Visio
and the smartphone.
MERLIN BIRD ID
The integrated Bird ID app in the AX Visio and Merlin Bird ID, developed by Cornell for smartphones, are two
different apps. Bird ID is based on Cornell’s model and learning data, but has been modified and optimized for
integration in the AX Visio.
New Version of Merlin Bird ID
With the launch of the AX Visio, there is a new version of the Merlin Bird ID app. Only this version supports
communication with the AX Visio. It is therefore important to install this new Merlin Bird ID app on your smartphone.
WILDLIFE ID
The Swarovski Optik Wildlife ID smartphone app is the model on which the integrated Mammal ID, Butterfly ID,
and Dragonfly ID apps in the AX Visio are based.
SWAROVSKI OPTIK OUTDOOR APP
The SWAROVSKI OPTIK Outdoor App allows you to transfer data to your cell phone and manage settings. The
Live View feature (turn the mode selection wheel on the AX Visio to the camera symbol) makes it possible to
share the view with up to four other smartphones using a QR code. The Outdoor App needs to be installed on
these devices as well to be able to connect to the Live View with the AX Visio. In the app, select “I don’t have an
AX Visio” (Settings – Connectivity) and scan the QR code shown on the master device. No identification is
possible in Live View mode. When installing the app, please accept all system prompts (permission for access
to photos, location, etc.), otherwise you will not be able to use all the functionalities of the app (for example,
no photos can be saved). We recommend always running the updates available in the App Garden of the
SWAROVSKI OPTIK Outdoor App.

IDENTIFICATION
SHARE DISCOVERIES
Two different sizes of circle can be selected for identification support (using the arrow button). For a good iden-
tification result, it is important to select the size of circle that best captures the entire bird.
With Geolocation, the geographic location is factored into the identification process. This always runs automa-
tically in the background if there is an available GPS signal (usually no signal in buildings). Without GPS, just
one segment of the circle will be shown in bold in the field of view. As soon as there is a signal, depending on
the detection quality, up to 4 segments are shown in bold – the more segments displayed in bold, the higher the
probability of a correct result. The number of quarter segments shown with the identification result indicates the
reliability of the result – the more segments, the more reliable the result.

AF point
For sharp images and successful identification, it is important to set the manual focus clearly before starting the
identification process. As soon as the process is initiated (press the release button halfway), the AX Visio's autofocus
starts to work. From this point onwards, any further fine adjustment of the focusing wheel is counterproductive for
a successful analysis and good image result.
Other factors that influence identification are the size and distance of the bird, blurring caused by shaking, as
well as the light and environmental situation.
For most effective use of this function, we recommend approximately the same physical location for observing
and transferring. In other words, the second person should not be too far from the observation position (max.
1 meter/3.3 feet).

AX VISIO LANGUAGE SETTING
MERLIN BIRD ID
The language used to display bird names in the AX Visio is set in the Merlin Bird ID app on your smartphone: activate AX Visio
under Settings – Devices Swarovski Optik. You can then choose your preferred display language under SPECIES NAME
DISPLAY (IN DEVICE). If required, another language can be shown in the second line. To set the required language, turn the
mode selection wheel on the AX Visio to Bird ID and ensure the device is in active mode.
The language selected under Settings – Bird name language applies only to the display language in the smartphone app.
SWAROVSKI OPTIK OUTDOOR APP
The SWAROVSKI OPTIK Outdoor App uses the language selected for the smartphone operating system. This can be changed
in the smartphone’s app settings.
BASIC SETTINGS
In the case of any kind of visual impairment, a correct diopter setting is important to allow the AX Visio's camera
to provide sharp images. Otherwise, the camera’s autofocus is unable to compensate for blurring.
The first time you connect your AX VISIO to your smartphone in the SWAROVSKI OPTIK Outdoor App, you will
be prompted to enter a 6-digit code, which is displayed in the AX VISIO. This code is requested during the app
onboarding. After clicking on “Look for AX Visio”, click on the serial number displayed. The pairing process then
starts and the code is displayed in the AX Visio.
The display is situated in the right optical channel of the AX Visio. The brightness of the display can be adjusted
in the SWAROVSKI OPTIK Outdoor App under Settings (5 levels). The AX Visio automatically adjust the selected
brightness of the display based on ambient light levels.

CAMERA AND SAVING IMAGES
With its 13 MP sensor (4208 x 3120 px), the AX Visio's integrated camera provides a 4K resolution (1920 x 1080 px) for
videos. The internal memory of 8 GB can store around 1,700 photos or 1 hour of video in full quality.
Photos can be loaded using the Outdoor App, Merlin Bird ID, or Wildlife ID app. All photos are automatically sent to a special
AX Visio folder created in the smartphone memory. In each case, all photos are transferred from the AX Visio.
