Connector X1 couples the controls and the Rechargeable battery to control circuit board (A1). C1 and C2 are energy storage capacitors placed in the pumping circuit. They are charged up to 700-1000 V through a special contact designated A on control circuit board A1. Capacitor C3 and diodes V1, V2 are placed in the pumping circuit to prevent RF oscillations or reversal of the voltage polarity across capacitors C1, C2. E1 – is a pumping flashtube.
6. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 6.1. Range finder is an opto-electronic device emitting highdensity pulses of dark light at wavelength of 1.06 µm, characterized by the following dangerous factors according to GOST 12.1. 040-83: - direct laser radiation; - mirror-reflected laser radiation; - diffuse-reflected laser radiation. Direct and mirror-reflected laser radiation of range finder is dangerous for eyes at 1700 m distance from range finder when observing with the naked eye.
7. PREPARING FOR USE 7.1. Choose an observation post. 7.2. Rotate the objective frame to bring the reticule in sharp focus. 7.3. Check range finder for proper operation: - Battery voltage; - The range finder for proper functioning. 7.3.1. To analyze the battery voltage, set the ON-OFF selector switch to the ON position and check if the Low Battery indicator glows red in the left-hand eyepiece. If it does, replace the battery. BEFORE REPLACING BATTERY, SET SELECTOR TO OFF. 7.3.2.
- 7.5.2. To orient the range finder by using the reference directional angle, proceed as follows: Binocular the range finder on the reference point whose directional angle has been known; rotate the azimuth dial to set the reference directional angle; turn the clamping handle to lock the azimuth dial in position. With the range finder thus oriented, the measurements are taken from the location point relative to the directional angle of the object (reference object). 7.5.3.
- To make sure that the needle is free from defects, check that: - The needle oscillates in a smooth and uniform manner to regain balance; - The position of the needle end is the same relative to the mark when the needle settles; - The needle ends are level with the marked plates within ± 0.5 mm. The compass needs triple checking. If even a single requirement is not satisfied, turn in the AI for repair. 7.7. After the check set the controls to their initial positions, namely: - The ON-OFF and ILLUM.
- As the readiness indicator comes on, aim the range finder at an off-set point forward of the target; - As the target aligns with he reticule gap, release the MEASURE 1 (MEASURE L) button; - Read the measured range. 8.5.
- Calculate from the determined magnetic azimuth Am of the reference point and the target to find the directional angles, reckoning in the compass correction ∆ A obtained from the formula: α = Am – ∆ Am - Read the compass correction ∆ Am of the map; Note down the reference point target directional angles on the plotting board of card; Mark numbers of the plotting board with respect to the selected scale (1:25, 000 or 1:50,000) and the reference point, observation post and target location; Read the rectang
9. SERVICEABILITY TEST The principal tests to be performed on the range finder are listed below. Table 9.1 What is checked, tools, instruments, equipment. Test procedure Technical requirement 1.

- Protection device 12, used to supply the range finder with (27±2.7) V DC or 22-29 V from a vehicle electrical system, or with 2229 V or 12-14.
Arranging the packing case so that the arrow marked on top points North provides this. Charged batteries may be stored together with the range finder unit for up to three months. 13.3. The range finder placed in short-term storage (up to 3 months) is subject to inspection as directed in Section 11.5 and Long Term Storage as directed in Section 13. 13.4. If the range finder is to be stored for over three months, discharge the batteries as directed in Section 16. 14. SHIPMENT 14.1.
- Discharged by setting the toggle switches to the DISCHARGE and MAIN positions until the DISCHARGED light emitting diode flashes on and off to indicate the discharged condition. Charge up the operating voltage for 15 hours as directed under 16.3.1. 15.3.3. The battery that has been stored in the discharged condition for over 3 months is subject to two processing cycles before use.
16. DATA OUTPUT TO EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT The data on measured range is output to a remote display or computer across connector X2. To output the data, it is necessary to apply the supply voltage of 3 to 8 V from the equipment to be connected to the range finder to pin 9 of connector X2. The amplitude of the output signals will depend on the value of the supplied voltage. The measured range information is output in cycles by a binary decimal code through four data and three address buses according to Table 16.
