brilliant timing just ordered one and it should be in the store wednesday 19th June 2024.
give us a shout if you get stuck
Nice one mate, iv just got back from zeroing mine, I'm going to set the rest up now I know how 👍
Thanks
Paul
Hi glad it helped there will be a pt 2 coming but sounds like your on it already.
Nice and easy to follow
Glad you think so! and thanks for the comment.
Top job ! Hopefully this will stop all the questions we see on the forums & FB. Most of the questions are because folks are not bothered to read the manual.
Hi,Thanks for the comment, yes we hope so there will be a part 2 for zeroing coming soon.
I have read the manual and it is rubbish
Can the lrf be adjusted? Mine hits below the box on the screen
Hi, They are fixed from the factory.
Do you push the top turrent button to freeze the image
Hi, yes once in the freeze frame icon.
I notice on this video that your firmware build is V5.5.81_240229! On mine it is V5.5.81_240202 but on the sight app it’s saying no updates? So is mine or others an older build? Or are we waiting for your build to be cleared for public use?
Thanks 🤩
Hi it a sample model and you have the current firmware. there are no updates out.
Awesome video mate. What lever are you running on the focus ring?
Hi, thanks for the comment, the lever is a fishing coaster can get them on eBay or Amazon.
Hi your profile for setting up different rifles do have say A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 then your BC A1-1 B1-2 C1-3 D1-4 E1-5
Hi,Thanks for the comment. you are spot on I match my BC page to the profile.

Why is it the lrf box is in a different place on every one i see, mine is right at the top of the reticle and leaves the screen with 7x mag, i could see nothing about moving where the lrf box sits
All set from the factory. It will all change depending on scope mounting,height and individual zeroing of each rifle and calibre.
Hi, every scope is different all depends on mounting hight and the rifle. but the lrf box is set from the factory.
Is that going to be able to be adjusted? Mine is right down at six oclock and quite annoying @TheNightVisionShow
@@stevenobrien_22-250 We have asked the question, so I am pretty sure Hik will be on the case.
@TheNightVisionShow thanks the box is low but the laser is high like you said takes a bit of playing about, if I could get the lrf box just below centre crosshair would be perfect, hopefully there's a future adjustment as the BC has performed well for me out to 280 metres
Nice scope. Is this something that’s available in the US as well?
they are under the brand AGM
Hello! Mine just arrive yesterday, and today was my 1st day shooting. Whatever i saw that mine doesn t show that degrees on bottom and the right anywhere. Do i need to activate it Somewhere?
Thank you!
in the menu general settings it in there next to OSD,
It would be nice to be able to give the profiles names.
Hi, yes would be nice we will pass it up.
I'm a bit confused about the zeroing profiles and using the ballistics function with them... From what you've said, you can choose A to E, and for each of these, assign a number 1 to 5 to each, so a total of 25 possible combinations, and each of these has a zero distance input. Fine so far. But say I want to set up my air rifle on profile E, and I use different pellets and or power settings. So I set up say E1 as 15gr low power, E2 as 15gr high power, E3 18 gr low power, E4 18gr high power and so on. If I then want to use the ballistic calculator, I'm limited to 5 total ballistic tables. Meaning that I can't really use the ballistics calculator with reticle profiles A to D (which would be different rifles) if I've used up the 5 tables with my air rifle ballistics on profile E? Is that correct?
Hi you can only have 5 BC tables set up in the scope. so can't have ( E1 as 15gr low power, E2 as 15gr high power, E3 18 gr low power, E4 18gr ) so could only have 1 set up on the bc or use all 5 slots on the bc for 1 ammo.
Sorry posted when I left unattended. Re-below question regarding moving reticle. On center reticle my Alpex 4K only moves back into middle of screen when zoomed into 7x mag plus? I have center reticle mode turned on.
Morning, even with centre ret on as it's a digital device it may be off on some rifles. could try change the scope hight or zero distance and let the bc do the rest of the work.
Gday mate. Do you know how to move the box that the laser pings in. Mine is in the upper right and a fair distance from the reticle on 3.5 magnification. I have seen other videos where it is lower left close to reticle centre. Can’t find anything in the manual about it. Also the second reticle you get when using the ballistic calculator won’t piss off after taking a shot. Any help would be greatly appreciated Thanks mate🇦🇺
Hi the lrf box is set from the factory, there will be a update coming soon that might change some features more to follow
Just watched this , what a nightmare to set up!!!
Hi, thanks for the comment its really simple this video has helped so many people set there up.
i thought it was you (dunno for sure )who did the sytong ht 60 review..i bought 1 because of your indept ,how to set it up etc ..and it is stil going strong..if it was not you sorry about that ..😀 p.s is this better ore the same as the pard ds 35 i thought?Both are way to complicated for me ..i stick to the sytong ht 60 ☺
Hi thats not us.
Hi
I bought the full kit from yourselves. How are you getting the ir torch to pass over the LRF as mine won’t?
Hi, may need to offset it to the side or mount further forward.
Hi Team, Is there a reason the reticle is high & right off centre when on 3.5 base magnification? I’ve adjusted to center
select centralise ret in the menu
Reading the comments confirms my decision to retire from shooting.
? can we help clear any issues up ?
@@TheNightVisionShow No thanks, I'm 70 now and digitally challenged. I spent many years handloading various calibres with custom barrels and culled four figures worth of deer and fox. I used a thermal spotter in later years but stuck to an image intensifier on the back of my day scope for shooting at sentient creatures with a pulse. Just because the current tech savvy generation can work out how to operate a computerised device, it doesn't necessarily follow that they will have the fieldcraft experience or accuracy skills to operate the mechanical side of it. However, that's just my opinion. I believe I'm still allowed one, even under the current government. Good luck to all shooting folk, use it or lose it.
The sound is AWFUL !!! Can you try again with a proper mic'.
Hi there is nothing wrong with the sound. we use high quality recording equipment. there are also subtitles provided. hope you enjoy the video.
@@TheNightVisionShow Hi there, sorry but there really is a sound issue from your end on this vid', its unfortunate, because I want to understand the Hik Alpex 4k lrf before buying one.
I have tried on another system, but the result is the same, very muffled. Can you look into this, thanks.
@@jamesbowskill362 Feel free to give Scott Country a call on 01556 50 3587 and they team will be pleased to help.
Thank you for excellent review. Hopefully you will add some tricks, what to do, when ballistic calculation is not spot on, despite all inputs are according to manufacturer data.
Which values should I play with, to bring calculations to work properly.
Thanks again, from not so normal person, who understands and prefer metric system to imperial one. 😊
Thats all coming up on Part 2 on Friday, thanks for the reply.
Hello just got the hik alpex 4k lrf and I did the firmware updates straight away through the app next to my scope, when I go on app all says up to date, you mention about clicking restore to save the firmware update ? Does restore not restore it back to the factory settings for if you was going to I.e sell it ?
Any help much appreciated
Thank you in advance
Mitch
hello, after every update you need to do a restore for the new firmware to take effect. it won't lose your zero info, but will clear the BC data so its worth taking note of that. and it will return all the settings to factory like OSD and smart ir etc
@@TheNightVisionShow okay thank you I did not know that, does it also reset the password for connecting to the device ?
Thanks
Mitch
How do you get the picture on picture on?
on the lrf model press and hold the lrf button.
Nice little walk through. I initially put my speed in as fps unconverted to m/s. 😂 big boo boo for an air rifle 😂
Hi, yes very easy to miss something. dont rush it
Hi I tried to zero last night and run out of y going down I have medium sports match rings on when I thought about it had the ballistic calculator turned on would that impact me trying to zero
Thanks
Hi only if you was using the laser and the hold over marker, but normal zeroing it shouldn't effect it.
@@TheNightVisionShow thanks got sorted hadn’t fastened down the front mount properly can’t fix stupid
Love the text. Is it Cockney Geezer?😂 Seriously though, great and informative video.👍
Hi, Thanks for the comment glad you liked the video. keep your eyes out for Pt 2
divide your feet per second value by 3.281 to give metres per second
That's the one. can use a converter app or google also.
Is it possible to adjust the brightness of the reticle please.
Hi not the ret only the whole screen.
Thanks for the informative video, during the shot playback feature I don’t have any Audio/sound, is this normal or is there a problem with my scope?💥🤔
hi,
have you turned the microphone on ?
Yes! Still no audio when clips watched back through scope though??
@@JimRobson-l5d can't play sound back in the scope. only when the footage is downloaded to a phone ect
Thanks set it up with little or no problems and I even read the
Manual!👏👌Even Ballistic data!
Hi,Thanks for the comment good to hear.
so what mounts do i need so i can swap it from rifle to rifle
We recommend these from CSW www.scottcountry.co.uk/products/britannia-qr
Bom dia, tenho uma Alpex 4K e também lhe coloquei um suporte de IR na mira como o do filme. A minha pergunta é: qual o seu acessório de IR que pega nesse suporte? obrigado...
sorry not sure what you mean here with the ir ?
@@TheNightVisionShow Infrared Illuminator, obrigado
Hello dose’s this optic can handle shock from cal. 3006 .?
Hi yes had people using them on .270 7mm mags with no issues.
@@TheNightVisionShow thanks for information 🙏
Doing a restore put the scope back to factory settings
Hi, yes after every update a factory reset need to be done to let the new firmware take effect. worth taking a note of the X and Y before hand.
Great video thanks for taking the time taken so much of the hassle out of set up
Hi cool, Thanks for the comment glad you liked it.
cant hear it, volume is extremely low
