ATN 4K issue.

When I received my ATN 4k initially, it did get frozen in a random setting. I would simply hold the power button down for 15-30 secs and the problem would be resolved. I have had the scope now for 2 months -- use it often -- and have not had a recurrence of the frozen screen since the first couple of days it arrived.

Mine seemed kind of mushy and didn't seem like it wanted to switch any functions either but If you push firmly straight down it would do what it was suppose to do, and it has worked fine since. 

definitely a learning curve, to these ATN 4K scopes, mine a 5-20 froze up once the other day......I think sometimes the combination of which buttons you push and for how long????....read the manual real well and check out the owners forum......These are amazing scopes for the money and I have only had mine about 10 days/////.....don't just push buttons !...Understanding how to navigate seems to be key, there is a LOT to these scopes!

I just wish there was more night critters out here in Michigan and it was 50* warmer !

I just sent back my 4k Pro 5-20.

I had mine freeze up about once a day. I can’t see how I would be able to hunt with it. 

Also I find the quality just meh. The video, picture, and lcd quality just isn’t worth it for me. Its 1080 at 120 frames per sec at best.

But it is still a marvel of technology and I hope ATN works out the bugs. I’m looking forward to their 8k model.

The "bugs" of the ATN 4K are much the same as those of it's predecessor, the ATN X-Sight II HD, which were much the same "bugs" found in the original model. There have been at least three generations of these scopes and the same bugs persist. What is worse than all the bugs is the corporate morality demonstrated by the corporate heads of ATN. You pay your money up front and can only expect to receive a Beta model. And before all the "bugs" are worked out, your 2 year warranty is up. Thousands of buyers have fallen for ATN's empty claims and promises only to be disappointed. Then ATN comes out with a new model and all of a sudden there's a whole new crop of hopeful customer dying to part with their hard earned cash. And all the well intended warnings from previous owners avail nothing and people continue to flock to ATN's sales counters to plunk down more and more hootch. When ATN finally dies, they'll have to be SCREWED into the grave, or else the ground would spew them out.

Hopefully ATN can work out all the bugs in the software.

First, congrats on the replacement! 

As far as I can tell, the new firmware didn't really help stability of the software. I still had mine freeze several times after the newest flash. In fact it had frozen the very last time I tried playing with it before it went in the box and back to OP. I am very thankful for OP's 30 day no questions easy RMA process and will highly recommend the Planet for the purchase of this product as it seems to still be in beta.

I’m running mine with the 271 firmware and it’s solid. Some people upgraded to the latest and didn’t find any great improvement in image quality. Only major reason to update is if you have the ATN rangefinder and you want to pair it to the scope to do live adjustments to range. 

Also, the battery indicator never reaches full no matter how long you leave it to charge. 

I’ve been following all this ATN Pro 4K night/day scope stuff on this forum and others that when it all gets figured out I’ll probably buy one and use my wife’s work laptop to do any programming I need to do to get it on the rifle and working properly but untill then I’m going to be watching and reading to see what you guys figure out, I’ve seen some good deals on this unit with external battery pac but all these issues are keeping me away from getting it right now, it would make such a nice scope for coyotes with a good IR light if the bugs got worked out.
