3.1.10 MOUNTING ACCESSORY LENSES TO THE SIRIUS
To mount the 3X afocal lens (A) or 5X afocal lens (B) to the device, screw it into the threading of the
standard 1X objective lens on the Sirius.
To mount the 5X (C) or 8X (D) lens, unscrew the existing 1X objective lens of the Sirius and screw in the
3X, 5X or 8X lens in its place.
The Sirius configured with an 8X lens can be installed on a tripod. To mount the unit on a tripod, use the
1/4’’ threaded socket (E) on the housing of the 8X lens.
