  • a rotation plane position information z. B. be stated that - based on a certain angular position of the actuating element 11 - the actuator 11 z. B.
  • the rotational plane position information thus describes the number of complete revolutions of the actuating element 11 about its axis of rotation A. An actual axial movement of the actuating element 11 along the axis of rotation A is not required for this purpose.
  • the possibility of separately detecting the angular position information and the rotation plane position information via separate detection elements 18a, 18b provides a robust principle for detecting the position of the reticle 6. This results in particular from the fact that the angular position information and the rotational plane position information can basically be detected independently of each other.
  • a data processing combination or combination of the angular position information and rotation plane position information which can be detected or detected separately via the detection elements 18a, 18b, an exact statement can be made in which plane of rotation and in which angular position at which angular position the motion-coupled with the reticle 6 is Actuator 11 is located.

  • Examples of corresponding electrical consumers of the device 1 are also the detection elements 18a, 18b of the detection device 18.
  • the control device 19 is set up, the control of the power supply of one of the detection elements 18a, 18b, ie in particular of the second detection element 18b, which is used to generate a in the determination of the retracting position information including rotational plane position information to be controlled so as to be independent of other electrical consumers of the device 1, e.g. B. in a standby mode, is constantly supplied with a certain amount of electrical energy. In principle, this can also be done via a separate power supply device (not shown) of the detection element 18b.

  • the output device 21 may, for. B. a display device, for. B. in the form of an OLED display, which is integrated into the optical channel 5 of the device 1. Consequently, a user can, if the device 1 is handled properly, ie when looking through the optical channel 5, next to the device actually optically viewed or magnified object and the output device 21 and the optically output via this information, ie, for example, image and / or text information recognize.
  • connection device 23 can be arranged or formed on the housing part 4, via which at least one, in particular electronic, external functional component which can be coupled to the device 1 can be connected to the device 1.

  • it may, for. B. to another device, a cell phone, a smartphone, a tablet PC, notebook or a local or global data network, such as an intranet or the Internet.
  • the communication device 25 can also be arranged on or in the housing part 4 of the device 1. Equally, however, it is possible for the or one, possibly further, communication device 25 to be arranged in a housing part (not shown) which is separate from the housing part 4 of the device 1. In this case, a corresponding connection device (not shown) is arranged on the housing part 4 of the device 1, via which the or one, optionally further, communication device can be connected to the device 1.
