1.1.3 PURPOSE OF EqUIPMENT
The CO-X is a night vision system intended to be used for short to medium ranges (normally up to 700
yards) in conjunction with a daytime sight, or riflescope (hereafter referred to as a “day scope”). When
mounted on a weapon in front of an existing day scope, the CO-X adds to the scope’s capabilities a
night vision function, without affecting the boresight.
The CO-X is compatible with most commercial and military specification day scopes or binoculars up to
7X magnification and fits any Picatinny MIL STD 1913 or Weaver rail via the quick release mount.
Optional adapters make it possible to mount the CO-X directly to the objective lens of a variety of day
scopes and binoculars.
A long-range IR850 illuminator (hereafter referred to as the IR850) enables use of the CO-X in extremely
low light conditions or total darkness. Other additional equipment, such as an infrared laser, red dot
sight, etc., may also be installed on the CO-X.
NOTE:
The CO-X can also be installed in front of the viewfinders of various instruments to widen the
operational illumination range.
