And this comes from TM-E 30-451:
(c) For visual searching, a "dark search equipment" (Dunkelsuchgerät 41) is used. This consists of a pair of binoculars (having a few degrees of lateral and vertical movement) mounted on the searchlight. In operation, the searchlight and optical equipment are laid initially by location data furnished from a separate source.
Example of Dunkelsuchgerät 41 installed on Flak-SW 150 cm 37 - it's a clearly visible another application of D.F. 10x80:
