3.4 AUTO POWER OFF 

OPERATION

Auto Power Off is a feature of the SCOUT III 

Series monocular that helps to guard against 

draining the battery prematurely by inadvertently 

leaving the camera on.
Auto Shutdown turns the camera off if the 

following conditions are met:
•  The product is On
•  No buttons have been pressed for five 

minutes

Once these conditions are met, you will see the 

following message in the display: “Auto Power 

Off 30s.” After counting down for 30 seconds, 

the monocular will shutdown.
Press any button during this countdown to 

terminate Auto Power Off and resume normal 

operation.

3.5 AUTO FFC / 

CALIBRATION

By design, the camera will periodically initiate 

a Flat Field Correction (FFC) cycle, also known 

as a Non-Uniformity Correction (NUC). A shutter 

activates inside the camera and provides a 

target of uniform temperature, allowing the 

camera to correct for ambient temperature 

changes and provide the best possible image. 

Just prior to the FFC, a small green square will 

appear in the upper left corner of the screen for 

two seconds. When the FFC occurs, the video 

image temporarily freezes.
