2.7 MODES OF OPERATION - Continued
Mode Activation
Once the mode of operation has been selected, the MIPIM
may be used in that mode by activating the system as
follows:
Momentary Operation. Pressing and holding the FIRE
Button operates the MIPIM in the selected mode. When the
button is released, the MIPIM turns off.
NOTE
The MIPIM is equipped with a shut-down feature
that will automatically turn off any laser (or the
White Light Illuminator) that has been activated for
five continuous minutes.
Continuous Operation. Pressing the FIRE Button twice in
rapid succession (double-tap) will turn the MIPIM on in the
selected mode. The MIPIM will remain on until the button is
pressed a third time (single-tap) or after five minutes of
continuous operation, whichever comes first.
Remote Cable Switch. When installed, the Remote Cable
Switch may be used to provide the same functionality as the
FIRE Button and is operated in the same manner. The
Remote Cable Switch plugs into the remote jack as shown in
Figure 2-8. It is then secured to the weapon to best suit the
operator’s firing preference using the retaining straps and /
or hook and loop fastener tape.
