Product Overview
The UANVB Katana
(Ultralight Articulating Night Vision Binocular)
The Katana is a fully articulating night vision binocular that has a built in on/
off power function when pods are rotated into the out
(up) and in (down) positions. The pod on/off feature will operate individually
per pod. Left up/down will operate power on/off for left image intensifier
tube pod left. Right pod up/down will operate power on/off for right image
intensifier tube pod right. The binocular device features an all new “Friction
Lock Interpupillary Adjustment” system, the I.P.D stops that will allow the
user to set IP stop distance relative to user preference (space from left eye
to right eye). The binocular device uses infinity locking rings that will allow
user (or manufacturer) to set maximum focus distance on the front
objective lens to infinity enabling quick adjustment between “close” and
“far” focus distance with a firm stop at maximum focus every time. The
night vision binocular will feature a rear tensioning plate fastening the pod
housings to the bridge (center) of the device. The tensioning plate will
feature 1 screw on each plate, that when tightened or loosened will adjust
friction tension, that translates to how stiff or soft the ability to articulate out
(up) and in (down) will feel. Loosened being a softer looser articulation and
tighter being a stiffer tighter articulation. The night vision device will have a
hard on/off power button that will power the device on and will only power
off if clicked into the power off cycle or if pods are articulated into the out
(up) position at an angle appropriate to activate individual power off
feature. If power is hard cycled on and pods are articulated (rotated) into
the in (down) position the individual pods will power the image intensifier
tubes on respective to the side that is being articulated into the on (down)
position. The night vision binocular will feature a dovetail for mounting to
dovetail compatible helmet mounts. The night vision binocular will feature a
single purge port on each pod used for purging of each pod and will be
sealed with a purge screw and o-ring.

1.I.P.D. Screw – The Interpupillary Distance screw has a factory
torque setting of 8.5-inch pounds. The I.P.D. screw should not be
adjusted by the user. The I.P.D. screw torque setting ensures that
the interpupillary distance stop has enough resistance to provide
a sure stop upon articulation down but may still be pushed past
the stop limit for user inner pupillary distance adjustment.
Adjustment or tightening of the I.P.D. screw may result in loss of
I.P.D. stop function, loss of I.P.D. stop function quality, or potential
shearing (breaking) of titanium screw head.
2. Tensioner Screw – The tensioner screw has a factory torque
setting of 6.5-inch pounds. The tensioner screw may be adjusted
by the user for articulation stiffness preference. The tensioner
screw uses a T10 torx driver bit for adjustment. Tightening the
tensioner screw will give the user a stiffer and tighter feel upon
articulation. User should not tighten tensioner screw excessively.
Do not exceed 10-Inch pounds. Excessive tightening will inhibit
the pods ability to articulate and could result in damage of screw.
User should only tighten tensioner screw slightly if stiffer
articulation is desired.
3. LEMO Port- The baseplate of the night vision binocular bridge
will have a LEMO port compatible with the push pull connector
(3b.). The LEMO port will allow the user to connect the night
vision binocular to an external battery pack to provide longer
operating duration through the use of multiple batteries in the
power pack. The user should be familiar with the use of LEMO
connectors and should know to orient the connector with the
indication dot on the male end connector and female end port
before inserting the connector into the port on the night vision
device. Twisting of the connection to find orientation may result in
damage of the port or connection pins and render the LEMO port
inoperable.

4. I.P.D. Friction Lock Stop – The interpupillary friction lock stop
will enable the user to set the stopping point of each pod when
rotated or articulated into the down position.
5. Tensioner plate – The tensioner plate is the mechanism used
to fasten the pod to the bridge of the device. The tensioner plate
will control the stiffness of motion when rotating pods for
articulation control.

6. I.P.D. Reset Position – The I.P.D. friction lock mechanism may
be pushed past the point of stop provided by the protruding tooth
of the tensioning plate. The user can push against this protruding
tooth to reset the I.P.D. mechanism.
7. I.P.D. Stop Preference – The I.P.D. stop can be set by the user
by articulating (rotating) the pod in (down) to the users desired
interpupillary position. The user can push the I.P.D. mechanism
past the stopping point by articulating the pod until desired position
is reached. Once set to the preferable I.P.D nothing more has to
be done.

Individual On/Off Articulation

8. Articulation Power On – When the device is powered on
using the battery cap on cycle or external power pack set to ON
the individual pod will be powered on while in the in (down)
position.
9. Articulation Power Off – When the device is powered on
using the battery cap on click cycle or external power pack set to
ON the individual pod will be powered OFF while articulated
(rotated) to a position that exceeds the position at which the pod
would power on.
