P/N 79000035_SM, Version 1.5 3 - 5 Focus 30/35 Service Manual
Technical specification
• Magnification: 31 x
• Clear aperture: 50 mm
• Field of view: 1,5 degrees, 2,6 m at 100 m (8.5 ft at 328 ft)
• Focusing range: 1,5 to ...
• Reticle illumination: wavelength: green 590 nm, variable in 10 steps
Functional description
The telescope has some additional features, like:
• In order to aim with high accuracy, an illuminated reticle (cross hair) is placed in the image
plane between the eyepiece and the erecting prism (Porro prism).
• The motorized focusing drive (Servo Focus) moves the focusing lens.
• A transmitter prism mounted behind the front lens diverts the laser pointer and tracker
transmitter signal.
• Two selective mirrors are situated in the optical path to divert the optical signals to the distance
meter and the camera tracker receiver : Mirror 1 reflects the wavelength of 785 nm towards
the tracker receiver camera.Mirror 2 reflects the wavelength of 660 nm to and from the EDM.
