Thank you for the videos. My TNC635R should be here in a few days. Your videos have put me way ahead of the learning curve!

[@Craigs_Adventures]

Glad it could help. I invite you to help me by subscribing and helping me get to the 1000 subs. Thanks for stopping by and watching the video. If you have more time please view a few other videos...CLO

I just got mine today love it already, and have not even powered it up yet. man I tell ya My batteries 2 have been charging since 5pm and its 10:08

[@Petes_Plinking]

Good tutorial video on that scope. It’s really nice to see both the screen and what buttons to hit. Thanks CLO

[@dhonda250r]

Great tutorial.. How do you turn on the IR light. Thanks

[@airriflevermincontroluk5027]

Thanks for sharing, great tutorial. The Thermal Hotspot tracking feature will place the red dot on the hot heat sources that are in the viewfinder. The dot moves about highlighting the hot spots . All the best

[@Craigs_Adventures]

Thanks for the feedback on the Thermal Hotspot Tracking. I did find out a few days later after the video was published. I invite you to subscriber to my channel if you have not done so already.

[@cabezamiami]

Exactly, it keeps the cross on top of the hottest point in the viewfinder (animal or animal part). Liked and subscribed

[@shballard7]

Awesome overview and details. Thank you. On to part 3. Mine is on its way. Be here in 2 days

[@Craigs_Adventures]

thanks for the compliment. When you get it and if you have any questions ask me. And if you have not subscribed already, I invite you to please do so.

[@davidbraswell1481]

I was able to use my big battery banks wow so helpful as it takes forever to charge.

[@Craigs_Adventures]

Hope you like it as much as I do. Check out a few of my other videos showing it in action. I also invite you to subscribe to my channel. I am trying to get to 1000 by Christmas…hahaha wont make it but lets see if we can get a 1000 by next Christmas. CLO

[@Craigs_Adventures]

I just received this from DNT about Bluetooth not showing up on the Setting menu. …. This is correct the new units and after you do a Firmware update Bluetooth is not longer used. Ballistics are transferred via wifi and ballistic calculation is unlocked in scope. By doing this you can send over 5 ballistic profiles instead of the one, also by using the inscope calculation instead of the table the inscope is more accurate and adds inclination which account for extreme angles.

[@lordaresthefirst]

[@greggeis918]

My understanding is the thermal reticle has to be calibrated independently from the day/night vision. Is that what the screen shifting used for? To match the zero on the thermal to the zero on the day/night?

[@donpeer4477]

Thank you for this video. You were much more in-depth with the details than others I've seen! I noticed that you have a Zulus, which I have also, and was wondering how you'd compare NV on them.

[@Craigs_Adventures]

Its about the same. I have not put too much into the looking at the differences between the 2. Stay tuned for more videos coming up with the new scope. I invite you to subscribe if you have not already done so.

Hi Craige, very useful video, thank you ! I have one of these optics but cannot get the Screen Shift to work and align at all, despite indexing to maximum both ways and ensuring long hold R/H button to save and exit menu. Any suggestions welcome - does yours actually work ? 🤔

[@justsayin7937]

@ShotintheDark-lk1ps Do you use your shooting reticle to point at the target when trying to get the range with the range finder or do you point the ranging reticle at the target? The reason i ask is because when pointing the shooting reticle at the target the range is correct, but when pointing the ranging reticle at the target the range finder is reading 120yds at 100yds.

[@justsayin7937]

@ShotintheDark-lk1ps Thanks for the info. I found that the issue I was having is due to the fact i was shooting at a thin target so the LRF was picking up the distance out past the target. If i point at the base of the target on the ground i get correct distances.

[@BennyDeOver]

Very good.demo

[@paulluna45]

you know the button you push to change between thermal and night vision? I somehow switched it to thermal/digital and dont know how to change it back. can you tell me how to do it?

[@Craigs_Adventures]

you should just have to hold that same button for 3 seconds. Let me know if that did the trick. PS. If you have not subscribed already, I invite you to please do so.

@@garethjones3412 i have sent an email about your question

[@Craigs_Adventures]

@garethjones3412 This is what I recieved from DNT... " The letter in the main screen next to the magnification levels is the Ballistic Profile letter. The scope allows 5 A-E Ballistics Profiles. It will Stay on even if the Ballistics are turned off but will change if you change the Ballistics Profile letter." I cant get it display the letter at all.

[@PawPawWall]

Question, does the IR light automatically come on when you switch over to night vision?

[@Craigs_Adventures]

@PawPawWall. NO. You can run the night vision without the IR. The IR has 4 levels. OFF, Low Med and High. It also has a narrowing lens on it, so you can use the low level setting and turn the lens to narrow the beam. Thanks for stopping by and I invite you to subscribe to my channel if you have not done so already.

what is the model. in the instructions, how to you put the specs of the ballistics calc. does it just use wifi?

[@phil-1115]

@@Craigs_Adventures Model says TNC225R on the manual and on the scope. Serial number is 703390. Mine does not have the "wifi" button next to the USB-C port. It just has a block off plate. I assume it connects through wifi. When you go to the "connections" tab in the menu, only wifi is available. There is no Bluetooth selection. The manual does no good, because it shows the "wifi" button on the side and shows the "bluetooth" selection in the "connections" tab.

Yeah. 4 hours later after running into other things that aren't in the instructions it still isn't working. I don't care how cheap it is, or how well it works, this isn't worth the hassle. When you talk to them you can let them know there is at least one unit that came back to them because they were to cheap to include directions. No better than the crap you get from China in my opinion.
