CORRECTIVE ACTION

PECULIARITIES OF CMOS ARRAY

The riflescope will not turn on.

Batteries have been wrongly installed.

Reinstall the batteries with the correct polarity orientation.

CMOS arrays employed in Yukon digital night vision devices, feature high quality. However certain pixels (or groups of pixels) with increased luminosity (lighter or darker) are allowed. Presence of light and dark pixels and other minor defects of a CMOS array (up to 4%) are acceptable in accordance with regulations of the array producer. Visibility on the screen of light pixels also depends on the type of CMOS array, type of camera and device heating during its operation.

Oxidized contact points in the battery compartment due Clean the battery compartment, focusing on the to “leaky” batteries or contact points becoming exposed contacts. to a chemically-reactive solution. The batteries are fully exhausted or one or both batteries are faulty. Low brightness settings.

Install fresh batteries.

Make sure the lenses are not misted or dirty.

Clean the lenses with a cloth wetted in spirit.

Poor image quality.

Check that the eyepiece and lens are adjusted in accordance with the user manual.

Adjust in accordance with the user manual.

There are several light or black dots (pixels) on the display of the device.

Presence of dots is caused by CMOS chip production technology and is not a defect.

Barely visible texture which does not impact detection range and efficiency of observation can be noticed on the display after the builtin laser IR Illuminator is activated.

This is normal for eye safe laser illuminators.

When conducting observation at elevated illumination level (in the daytime) image may flicker.

This peculiarity of day use of the digital riflescope is not a defect.

The image is too dark.
