Intuitive Operating System
RIX has developed a unique intuitive operating system for STORM, where each function corresponds to a single button. You no longer need to scroll through menus to find the desired function. The device’s buttons are directly mapped to the user interface (UI), so when you press a button, the corresponding function on the UI lights up, providing a clear indication of which function you have triggered. Additionally, these four buttons can also be used as directional keys, allowing for convenient zeroing.
Return to Center Function (RTC)
After zeroing, the RTC function will automatically reposition the reticle closer to the center of the x-axis and y-axis. If the deviation from the center position is minimal, it can even realign the reticle directly to the center. enabling you to have a more comfortable field of view and making it easier to maintain focus on the target.
Adjustable Picture in Picture (PIP)
