Hi everyone, I'm new to this list. I've just obtained a very nice Plath Navistar Professional sextant and have a dumb question. On the back of the micrometer drum is an orange plastic button. What does that do? Is it for a light to reading the vernier? If so, where and how does one change the batteries? I didn't get a manual with the unit. Tnx in advance, Phil
