NVS 6 MANUA L Page 12 Phy s ically, the night-vision goggles are m ade in the for m of two identical electro- optical channels – m onocular (3) and m onocular (4) – which are m echanically linked with each other with the aid of guide (1 ) and guide (2).
NVS 6 MANUA L Page 13 Knob (18) provides a m eans of individual adj ustm ent of the monoc ular position ( ey e r elief, tilt of the m onocular pair optical axes, and displacem ent of the monoc ular pair in the upward and downward directions ). The m onocular pair is loc ked in the s elected position by moving the knob down as f ar as it will go.
