Tactix 7 Night Vision No Longer Works

Baxx over 2 years ago

Hey,

i have updated my Tactix 7 Pro to 10.43.

The night vision mode is now much brighter than before.

Has anyone else this issue? Is there any fix for this problem?

greets

Could you pls. send Garmin-Chris a PM and open a case with your local Garmin Support?

Thank you for your reference to report the issue. We will not need any new examples. The issue was quickly…

Upps, my nightvision mode is gone as well with T7AB & 10.44.

Screen is merely switching back to 5%, all colours there, no difference to the normal 5% brightness, one can tell that by pure eye sight…

What are you testing this with NVG's?

0 Baxx over 2 years ago in reply to Former Member

you can see the difference with the naked eye

Out of curiosity is there another use case outside of NVG's you are using night vision for? Would be cool to utilize that feature.

When you put your Tactix 7 on Night Vision Mode, does the difference in the brightness appearance negatively impact and/or prevent your use of Night Vision Goggles?

Thank you.

With NVG on it is now way to bright almost painful to look into and easily to be seen from meters away.

Having this issue on my tactix 7. Night vision is way too bright. Almost zero difference from 5% backlight, minor coloration changes when night vision is selected on.

Same issue. NVG mode backlight same as 5% brightness - battery life estimate increases (Wrist HR disabled).

Cheers.
