	 Congratulations on the purchase of your Bushnell® Night Watch Digital Color Night Vision. Comprised of high quality electronics
and optics, this Bushnell Night Watch unit is a hand-held digital night vision viewing system that utilizes a low-light charge coupled
device (CCD) sensor providing images comparable to generation 2 & 3 resolution. Day and Night time images are magnified and
displayed on a Color LCD micro display screen, which provides a color image when ambient light conditions are high enough,
and a desaturated color or neutral, monochrome image (not the typical "green screen" night vision) under lower ambient
light conditions. The Digital Color Night Vision also contains an RCA video output port which allows live transmission to video
camcorders, computer lap tops / monitors, and television screens.

HOW DIGITAL NIGHT VISION WORKS
	 Bushnell Digital Night Vision products collect existing light through the objective lens. The light is then processed through a highly
sensitive CCD sensor and transferred to the micro liquid crystal display (color LCD). Images viewed on the LCD are magnified 3
times. An infrared illuminator provides a light source to enable viewing in total darkness.
	 The Bushnell Night Watch Digital Color Night Vision unit is ideal for camping, caving, scouting, maritime navigation, and observing
wildlife under the veil of darkness, patrolling warehouses and similar surveillance operations where light is scarce.
OPERATING INSRUCTIONS
1.	Slide the battery compartment door (2) open in the direction of the white arrow. Insert two CR123 batteries (3v lithium, not
included) into the battery compartment. Be sure to observe the correct battery polarity, as shown on the left. The "+" end of the
top battery should be facing out (towards the battery door), and the "-" end of the lower battery should be facing out.
2.	Remove the front lens cover. When finished using the unit, replace the cover to protect the objective lens (1) and IR light (7).
3.	Press the ON/OFF switch (3) to power the device on. A green LED light (4) indicates that the power is on. To extend battery life, the
unit will normally turn off automatically after 2 minutes (if no buttons are pressed). To cancel this auto-off function, briefly press
and release the IR switch (8) on the top of the unit. The power will then remain on until you turn it off manually with the ON/OFF
switch. The orange light on the lower half of the power indicator light (4) will glow if the unit is in auto-off mode (default), and will
turn off if you cancel the auto-off function. If the batteries become weak, the green power indicator LED will blink.
4.	View through the eyepiece (5) and select an object to focus on.
3

5.	To focus the image, first rotate the eyepiece rubber ring (5) until the edges of the LCD display appear sharp to your vision. Next,
rotate the objective lens focus wheel (6) until the object is in focus and the view is clearest. At this point, the display focus (eyepiece
ring) is set for your individual eyesight and will not require further adjustment when viewing objects at different distances. When
changing the viewing distance, simply rotate the main focus wheel (6) until the image is in focus.
6.	The Digital Night Vision has a light level sensor on the front of the unit (14) which detects low light conditions and automatically
turns on an infrared illuminator (7) to improve image quality. When the IR light is on, this is indicated by the red LED (9) above the
power indicator. You can also turn the IR illuminator on manually anytime, even if ambient light levels are high, by pressing and
holding the IR switch (8) for a at least two seconds (when you release the switch, you will see the red IR illuminator LED indicator,
confirming the IR illuminator is on now).
7.	To increase the brightness of the IR illuminator, press the "+" key (10). This can be used to extend your viewing distance. To decrease
the brightness of the IR illuminator, press the "-" key. This can be helpful in improving the LCD display viewing quality (by avoiding
"wash out") in very low light conditions or complete darkness.
8.	While moving from viewing one object to another object, it might be necessary to rotate the objective lens focus wheel and adjust
the IR illuminator brightness in order to achieve the best image quality.
9.	The Digital Night Vision includes a video output ("TV Out") jack (13). This port allows one to transmit images to an external video
monitor or video recorder. Plug the output video cable into the video output jack ("TV Out"). When the Digital Color Night Vision
is connected to compatible (NTSC) video equipment, the image produced by the unit can be monitored and/or recorded.
10. The Digital Color Night Vision also includes a 6 volt auxiliary power input jack (12). To connect the Digital Night Vision to a
household outlet, use the included 6 volt AC power adapter. Note that this feature is not intended to recharge batteries of any type,
and should not be used for that purpose. It simply provides an option for an external power source.
	NOTE: When the batteries are inserted and the external power source is turned on, the device operates on the external power
source. If you unplug the external power source, and you want to use the battery source, you have to press the ON button (3) to
make the device operate.
	
	NOTE: A standard tripod mounting socket is provided on the bottom of the unit. Remove the round rubber plug near the center of
the bottom face of the unit and set it aside.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Unit will not turn on
1.	Check that the batteries are installed correctly (2). If the batteries are installed correctly and the batteries are good, then the green
LED indicator light should be on steadily.
2.	Check that the power button (3) has been pressed.
Power does not stay on
1.	Replace the batteries when they become weak.
2.	The unit normally turns off automatically after 2 minutes to conserve battery power. To defeat this, briefly press the IR switch.
	
Image is not focused.
1.	Adjust the objective focus wheel (6) and eyepiece display focus (5).
2.	Make sure you are not too close to the object you are viewing.
