DESCRIPTION
The Trace 5x50 monocular is equipped with a built-in video recorder which enables high quality
recording with a resolution of 800x600 pixles. Files can be recorded either on the SD memory
card or directly on the hard disc of your PC. The monocular can be mounted on a tripod for a
comfortable long-time usage.
The Trace can be connected to the PC with a USB cable to transfer and process recorded
information. The Trace monocular employs a high sensitive CCD array with a wide range of
working illuminance. The monocular is outtted with a built-in IR illuminator which signicantly
improves device’s efciency in lowlight conditions and in the dark. The Trace operates on two
AA batteries up to ten hours.
The Trace is perfectly suited to a wide range of applications including:
• Outdoor observation • Video recording
• Hunting and tourism • Sports and night navigation
• Commercial and personal shing and boating • Search and rescue
• Equipment maintenance • Control of manufacturingequipment
