ABOUT BUSHNELL®EQUINOX Z™DIGITAL NIGHT VISION

Congratulations on the purchase of your Bushnell® Equinox Z™ Digital Night Vision. Comprised of high quality electronics and optics,

the Bushnell Equinox Z is a hand-held digital night vision viewing system that utilizes an infrared sensitive CMOS sensor, providing

edge-to-edge resolution and outstanding image quality. Fully multi-coated optics increase light transmission and decrease glare.

The Equinox Z 4.5x40 and 6x50 Digital Night Vision monoculars are versatile enough for many applications including hunting,

camping, boating/fishing, caving, paintball, stargazing, rescue/recovery, security surveillance, law enforcement, and video recording

in continuously changing light conditions – from dawn to absolute darkness. Not only can you view your subject at night, you can

also record its image as a still photo or video clip, and store it on micro SD card. The 4.5x40 and 6x50 Equinox Z Digital Night Vision

units also include a video output port (G) (user switchable to NTSC or PAL standard), which allows connection to video or computer

equipment for recording or "live" monitoring. A built-in accessory mounting rail (N) enables the user to attach a more powerful IR

illuminator or other compatible accessories.

HOW DIGITAL NIGHT VISION WORKS

Bushnell Digital Night Vision products collect existing light through the objective lens. The image is then processed through a digital

CMOS sensor module and transferred to the micro liquid crystal display (LCD). Images viewed on the LCD are magnified 4.5 or 6 times

(depending on model). Equinox Z Digital Night Vision models are equipped with a built-in powerful IR (infrared) illuminator (D) that

enables clear viewing in low ambient light conditions or even total darkness.

CONTROLS /FUNCTIONS

POWER BUTTON (A)

The Power button (Power icon) turns the unit on or off.

• Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn the unit ON

• Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn the unit OFF

DIGITAL ZOOM BUTTONS (B)

The “+” and “-” buttons adjust the digital zoom power, with a range of 1.0x to 3.0x.

The displayed numbers represent a multiplication factor over the fixed optical magnification of the unit (4.5x or 6x,

depending on model).

Maximum effective magnification = 3.0 x 4.5 (13.5x) for the 4.5x40 model, and 3.0 x 6.0 (18x) for the 6x50 model.

• Pressing and releasing the “+” button will gradually “zoom in” to the subject in view, by 0.1x increments

• Pressing and holding the “+” button will rapidly zoom in, until the maximum 3.0x magnification factor is reached

• Pressing and releasing the “-” button will gradually “zoom out” from the subject in view, by 0.1x increments

• Pressing and holding the “-” button will rapidly zoom out, until the digital zoom returns to the starting point of 1.0x (no digital

zoom applied, view represents the original 4.5x or 6x optical magnification)

IR BUTTON (C)

The“IR”button turns on/off the Infrared LED illumination (D) for low light operation, and is also used to reduce its brightness

if necessary.

• Press and release the “IR” button to turn on the infrared LED light (D) when ambient light levels are too low to provide good

viewing quality. The IR illumination will be at “100%” level when first turned on, and the display will indicate “IR3”(6x model) or

“IR2”(4.5x model). The 6x50 model has 3 IR brightness settings, the 4.5x40 model has 2 IR brightness settings.

• Press the “IR” button a second time to reduce the IR LED brightness level when viewing subjects at close range to avoid glare

or “washout” of the image. The display will indicate “IR2”(6x model) or “IR1”(4.5x model). Press “IR” again if necessary on the 6x

model, to reduce the IR LED brightness to its lowest setting, indicated by “IR1” in the display.

• Press the “IR” button again to switch off the IR LED light. “IR0” will be shown at the lower center of the display. Switching off the

IR LED when ambient light levels are adequate for viewing without it (full moon, near streetlights, etc.) will extend battery life

and running time. Press the “IR” button once again to switch to DAY Mode-no IR value will be indicated.

IMAGE BRIGHTNESS BUTTON (E)

The Image Brightness (Sun Icon) button can be used to change the digital imaging frame rate, producing a brighter image

for viewing or recording.

• Pressing the Brightness (Sun icon) button repeatedly will cycle through the available frame rates, beginning with the default

frame rate (fastest), until the last (slowest, brightest) frame rate is reached. After that, the next press of the button returns back to

the original fastest rate. The default, fastest frame rate in Night Mode is 25fps. Pressing the Brightness button cycles through the

other frame rate settings, with the third press returning to the default again: 25fps>15fps>8fps>25fps>etc.

• In Day Mode, the default frame rate is 30fps. The frame rate cannot be changed in Day Mode, therefore the Brightness button will

have no effect. The display is a color LCD, and images will appear in color in daytime use, or in strong artificial lighting conditions.

NOTE: selecting frame rates lower than the default 25fps in Night Mode will provide a brighter image, however the decreased frame

rate may cause moving subjects to appear less smooth or stable when viewed.

RECORD BUTTON (F)

The Record button is used to capture still photos or videos of the image being viewed, dependent on the setting of the Photo/

Video switch. The photos and/or videos are stored on a (user supplied) micro SD card, with up to 32GB capacity. The unit has

no internal memory.

• When the unit is in Photo Mode, pressing the record button will take a single photo of the displayed image, standard .jpg format,

at a resolution of 640x480 pixels.

• When the unit is in Video Mode, pressing the record button will start a new video recording. The Record icon in the display will

begin flashing, and the Video Time display will increase as the recording continues. Video is captured in .avi format at a resolution

of 640x480 pixels per frame (VGA).

• To stop recording in Video Mode, press the Record button again.

(The following items are located on the bottom of the unit, under the Interface Cover Flap)

PHOTO/VIDEO SWITCH (J)

The Photo/Video slide switch under the Interface cover flap determines whether still photos or videos are captured when

using Record.

• Set the switch to the “Photo” position to select still photo recording mode when the Record button is pressed .

• Set the switch to the “Video” position to select video recording mode when the Record button is pressed .

MICRO SD CARD SLOT (I): a micro SD card (user supplied, up to 32GB maximum) must be inserted before it is possible to use the

Record function. If a card is not inserted, the message “No Card” will be seen on the display when the unit is turned on.

USB PORT (H): connect a USB cable between this port and a PC/Mac to download photos/videos without removing the card. The

Equinox Z is USB mass storage compliant.

VIDEO OUTPUT (“TV OUT”) JACK (G): the“live”image as seen on the unit’s display is output here. Connect the included video cable

(1/8” to RCA) between this jack and a video monitor or recorder to remotely view or record the image from the night vision unit.

SETUP AND BASIC OPERATION

1) LOAD BATTERIES

Turn the battery compartment cover (K) in a counter-clockwise direction to remove it, and insert 4 AA batteries as indicated inside

the battery compartment. Lithium AA batteries are recommended for maximum running time, but alkaline or rechargeable NiMh AAs

may be used as well. DO NOT MIX BATTERY TYPES, OR NEW AND OLD BATTERIES. Remove the batteries if the unit will be stored for a

month or longer between uses.

2) REMOVE LENS COVER, ADJUST DISPLAY (EYEPIECE) FOCUS FOR YOUR VISION

Press the Power button (A) to turn on the unit. A battery level icon is displayed at the top right corner of the screen. While looking

through the eyepiece (M) at the LCD display screen, rotate the eyepiece (eyecup) until the display icons or edges of the display screen

appear sharp to your eye. Remove the lens cover from the front of the objective lens (K). Note: since the Equinox Z uses digital night

vision technology (not analog “Gen 1”, etc.), the unit cannot be damaged by exposure to normal indoor or outdoor light levels-however, you

should avoid pointing it directly at the sun or other very bright light sources to avoid overloading the sensor.

3) TURN ON IR LIGHT (IF NEEDED), ADJUST OBJECTIVE LENS FOCUS FOR SUBJECT DISTANCE

If the image is too dark to easily view (in most building interiors, and outdoors when away from artificial lighting), press the IR button

(C) to turn on the Infrared LED light. If the image is too bright after turning on the IR light (when viewing at close range), press the IR

button again to reduce the IR light level. If the image is still too dark after turning on the IR light, try pressing the Image Brightness

button (E) once or twice to lower the frame rate of the digital sensor. If the image is not sharp, rotate the objective lens barrel (L) to

change the focus until the subject appears sharp. Do not re-adjust the Display (Eyepiece) Focus (as set in Step 2), unless the display

icons are unsharp.

OTHER OPERATIONS/FEATURES

• AUTO POWER OFF

If a button has not been pressed for 10 minutes, the display screen will drop to 50% brightness level. If no button is pressed

within one minute after that, the unit will power off to extend battery life. Pressing any button quickly any time before the unit

turns off will return the screen to full brightness level and reset the auto off countdown process, without changing any other

settings.

• ICON OVERLAY ON/OFF

The user has the option to control how the icons are displayed on the LCD screen. Normally, when any button is first pressed, ALL

icons are displayed for 5 seconds, but no change to the unit’s settings is made (the Record and IR buttons is an exception-image

capture begins immediately the first time“Record”is pressed, and the IR light turns on at the first press of“IR”). If the same button

is pressed again, the button performs its function, and the display icons remain visible for 10 seconds after the last press, before

turning off automatically. To display all icons constantly, press and hold the IR button for 3 seconds. Repeat to switch back to

auto icon overlay (only visible for 10 sec. max following the use of a button).

• USING THE DIGITAL ZOOM

Press the“+”button (B) to zoom in. Press the“-”button (B) to zoom out. Hold the button down to zoom in/out rapidly. The Digital

Zoom icon at the lower left corner of the display will indicate the magnification factor, from 1.0x to 3.0x (in 0.1x increments).

• SELECTING PAL OR NTSC VIDEO OUTPUT

The Video Output jack (G) is set to NTSC format (30fps TV standard in the USA, Canada, Mexico, etc.) by default. To select PAL

video output (25fps) format as used in other countries, connect the unit to your video device first, then hold both the IR

button (C) and Image Brightness (E) buttons down for 5 seconds while viewing the display through the eyepiece. When the

display changes to“PAL”, release the buttons. To switch back to NTSC video output format, hold both buttons for 5 seconds until

the display indicates“NTSC”, then release the buttons. Note: The “Auto Off” feature is disabled when using the Video Output jack.
