IR IlluMInATOR OPERATIOn
cAuTIOn:
Do not forget that light emitted from the IR illuminator light is invisible to the naked eye; how-
ever, it can be easily detected when using night vision devices.
Infrared illuminators are used in areas where the level of light is not sufficient for surveillance. An IR illumi-
nator can provide an extra source of infrared light, which, although invisible to the naked eye, can greatly
enhance the performance of night vision devices. Turn on the IR illuminator when working in total darkness.
Please remember that the beam emitted by your IR illuminator will lose its brightness over distance.
You can activate the IR illuminator of your monocular by rotation the function swtch to position marked
IR. A red indicator light will appear when the IR illuminator is turned on.
vIDEO OuTPuT
Video output jack is designed to connect external recording devices or transmitting video signal to a
monitor. Attach signal receiver to the Video output jack and turn on the monocular.

IR IlluMInATOR OPERATIOn
The Armasight IR940 runs on a single CR123A battery. To install the battery, unscrew the battery com-
partment cap and insert the battery in accordance with the unit’s polarity markings. Screw the battery
compartment cap back onto the device.
To turn the IR940 on, rotate its operation switch into the ON position.
Adjust the power of the beam emitted by the IR940. To change the brightness of the beam, rotate the
illuminator operation switch.
Focus the IR beam to change the field of coverage. To focus the beam, slightly rotate the IR illuminator
lens.
To adjust the IR spot position in the field of view, perform
the following:
1) Loosen the screw on the clamp of the IR illuminator
mount.
2) Turn on the sight and IR illuminator.
3) Carefully move the lens of IR940 up and down, as well as
side to side, and observe the IR spot position through the
eyepiece of the night vision weapon sight.
