ApplicATion  
Compact and lightweight, rugged (metal not plastic), and a top-notch performer the NVG-7 is  
an exceptional choice for hands free usage.  
The NVG-7 goggles have a built in IR for total darkness with indicator “ON” light within the FOV  
and a flip-up headset.  
The NVG-7 is available with a wide range of image intensifier options to meet a wide array of  
specification requirements.  
The NVG-7 night vision goggles is a complex opticoelectronic system for individual use. The  
device consists of the objective lens assembly, eyepiece and the body. The body contains a  
image intensifier tube assembly with an integrated high voltage power source and the battery  
housing.  
Objective lens protective cover (not shown) is intended to protect the objective lens from dust  
and scratches. It also will act as a daylight filter, allowing you to test the scope in daylight or  
other bright light situations. The pinhole in the center of the protective cover allows the user to  
check the operation ability of the device in daylight conditions.  
NOTE: Do not test the scope in daylight conditions even with the daylight filter/lens cap on for  
more than ten (10) minutes.

operATion  
• Take the monocular out of the case.  
• Install the battery into the housing with the polarity order as shown on the scope. Battery  
Type: 3 Volt Lithium, #CR123A .  
• Press the button (short press - less than 1.5 sec.) to turn the unit on by the protective lens  
cover still attached to the lens. Do not turn the unit on in the daytime without the protec  
tive lens cap on. You should see green glow in the eyepiece.  
• Observe the scene and adjust the diopter for optimal image clarity.  
• You may now enter a dark environment or simply shut the lights off in order to darken the room.  
• Next, remove the lens cap/daylight filter. Adjust the front lens for the distance of the focus.  
You should not have to readjust the diopter.  
• To turn the unit off, push the button again by short press (less than 1.5 sec.).  
ocsing  
To focus the NVG-7, first you will need to adjust the  
diopter. Simply turn the diopter clockwise until it  
stops. Then, while looking throught the diopter at an  
object, slowly turn the diopter back counter clock-  
wise until the grain in the image is sharp.  
Diopter adjasting  
NOTE: We suggest that you focus the diopter  
during daylight with the filter on.  
Next focus the front lens until the image and the  
grain are both sharp. When you are in low-light con-  
ditions and the daylight filter is off, you may focus  
the front lens to receive sharp image, the diopter  
should not be adjusted.  
Lens focus  
adjusting  
NOTE: The front lens should be readjusted as you  
view objects at different distances.  
inrA-red illminATor  
Infra-red illuminators, or IR illuminators, are common  
to night vision. The IR light greatly enhances the  
performance of the NVG-7 while remaining almost  
totally invisible to the naked eye.  
The NVG-7 goggles have a built in IR with indicator  
“ON” light within the FOV. To turn the IR on, push  
the button by long press (more than 1.5 sec.). It  
is important to remember that the IR illuminator is  
simply an infra red light source, and like any light  
source, it may loose its effectiveness over a great  
distance.  
Built-in Infra-red  
Illuminators  
To turn the IR off, push the button again by long  
press (more than 1.5 sec.).  
NOTE: The IR will automatically turn off when the unit’s  
power is turned off.

StoRaGe anD caRe  
• If the device is not to be used for extended period of time (more than 10 days) remove the  
battery.  
• Avoid touching lenses. If fingerprints or traces of dirt or dust appear, clean their surface with  
a Photographic lens cleaning tissue.  
• Keep lens cap/daylight filter on when not in use.  
• The NVG-7 is not harmful to the user or the environment.  
• Do not disassemble except to clean the front lens and eyepiece: it will void your warranty.  
• Evaluate the scope function by looking through it in a lit environment with the daylight filter  
lens cap on. never use in daylight without the daylight filter lens cap on.  
never point the nVG7 at a bright light source.  
• Adverse atmospheric conditions such as fog, smog, or haze and a lack of ambient light  
(moon or starlight) may diminish the effective viewing distance.
