LONG-RANGE INFRA-RED ILLUMINATOR
The long range IR works on a separate battery from the main unit. To install the battery
unscrew cap and insert battery in the same direction as depicted by the diagram on the IR. To
install the long range IR to the main body of the Patriot screw the thumb screw on the IR into
the thread on the body of the Patriot.
You may notice that IR might not shine directly in the middle of your viewing image. This can be
adjusted by unscrewing the lock ring, then adjusting the main body of IR. Once you have the IR
aimed in the correct direction re-tighten locking ring. You may desire a different field of coverage
from the IR illuminator. If so the beam is focusable. By turning the lens of the IR you will change
the beam width slightly.
