ATN TWINS

I just got an ATN X-Sight 4K 3-14x refurb to work alongside my Thor 4 1.3-5 scopes. QD mounts on both so I can switch scopes easily between guns and keep zero with a simple profile load. I also got the X-Trac remote control, and I think I'll mount that on my new AEA HP Bullpup. The refurb scope was flawless cosmetically.

What I recently found out is that the sight in coordinates do (unfortunately) not get saved within each profile. It seemed there is only one overall sight in being saved. Not a problem if you use your ATN on 1 airgun only, but if you have profiles for multiple airguns, you still need to re sight them in after swapping from one to another...

Of course not a real big deal, but it would be easier if the sight in coordinates are saved per profile as that moves the reticle much closer to the previously chosen correct X,Y location when resighting in IMO, as you are well within the ballpark, and only need small adjustments, whereas with a sightin in used from another airgun you are likely to be way off...



Just FIY...
 
Well, this happened to me a few days ago. Changed airguns, put the ATN in the same spot it was before the swap, chose the correct profile for the gun the ATN is on now, but the zero was off by miles! So that led me to the conclusion that it does not save sighting in per profile… But as you say if ATN -specifically- states that it does keep zeros PER profile, there must have been something else at play…?
 
Ok it seems you are right!

After fixing the gun in a sled when switching profiles I could clearly see the reticle change location. So don't understand what happened the last time out, must have been a fluke or whatever, but it all looks well now! (Come to think of it I can't recall this happening ever before either so I hope it was a single anomaly!)

Thank you for pointing out your experiences with it!

I looked at this deeper after your comment, as my zero was waaay off after I did a firmware upload. So since my day job is software engineering, I cracked open the exported profile, and I could see it stored the zero per each profile. Here is my profile settings in a more human readable format. You can see it stores separate X and Y offset settings for each profile. I have not zeroed in my 142gr NSA slugs on my Bulldog yet. In any case, this is great news! I also solidified my scope remount process with torque settings to get the most repeatable shot without having to re-zero.
