WEAVER 7/8” Rail fixed on the left side of the body is used for attaching additional accessories.
Mini-USB. The mini-USB slot allows the riflescope to be connected to a personal computer or a laptop to upload additional (including «user-constructed») aiming reticles.
QUICK IMAGE ADJUSTMENT. A group of functions including Contrast mode (for a sharp contrast increase), Color mode (successive change of LCD display‘s illumination color) and Sum Light mode (activates sensitivity enhancement algorithm) are available.

INTERNAL FOCUSING. The optical system employs an internal focusing mechanism (from 5 m to infinity) with «definite» click-stop focus positions. The focusing provides clear images at extremely short distances as well as optimizes quality at all distances within the riflescope's working range.
BRIGHTNESS ADJUSTMENT WHEEL Adjusts optimum brightness of screen’s glow for each specific case.
BUILT-IN IR ILLUMINATOR is reasonable for usage at insufficient levels of natural illumination for improvement of observation quality.
RETICLE INVERSION. The inversion button allows changing color of the aiming reticle from black to white. The choice of reticle color is subject to the target’s brightness.
SCREEN. The choice of one of the four operating modes: blank screen, «Aiming reticle» mode, «Clock» mode, «Aiming reticle & Clock» mode.
LENS CAP. The riflescope’s lens is covered with a plastic cap. The lens cap is fixed on the scope’s body for better loss prevention.
