Operational Summary - Bushnell YARDAGE PRO SCOUT Manual De Instrucciones

englIsH
Your YARDAGE PRO SCOUT is a precision instrument designed to provide many years of enjoyment.
This booklet will help you achieve optimum performance by explaining its adjustments and features as
well as how to care for this precise laser rangefinding instrument. To ensure optimal performance and
longevity, please read these instructions before using your YARDAGE PRO Scout.
IntroductIon
Your Bushnell YARDAGE PRO SCOUT is the world's smallest and most advanced laser rangefinder.
Using Digital Technology and measuring a mere 1.5x4x2.75 inches and weighing 6.8 ounces, the
YARDAGE PRO SCOUT delivers superb and accurate range performance to +/- one yard. Range to
a deer as far as 300 yards out or to a tree at 570 yards away for a reference point. The unique shape and
palm size allows outdoor enthusiasts to easily grip the rangefinder with a single hand and drop it into a
pocket when not in use.
The rugged and weather resistant YARDAGE PRO SCOUT features popular "Scan" and ">150" modes
and includes a carrying case. Scan mode provides continuous distance measurements as multiple targets
in the field of view are scanned. The ">150" mode only captures distance measurements of objects
greater than 150 yards away, enabling distance measurement through foreground clutter like brush and
branches.
The YARDAGE PRO SCOUT emits invisible, eyesafe, infrared energy pulses. Sophisticated digital
technology and a high-speed clock are used to instantaneously calculate distances, by measuring the time
it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefinder, to the target, and back.
The ranging accuracy of the YARDAGE PRO SCOUT is plus or minus one yard / meter under most
circumstances. The maximum range of the instrument depends on the reflectivity of the target. The
maximum distance for most objects is 570 yards / 521 meters while for highly reflective objects the

maximum is 700 yards / 640 meters. Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances
depending on the reflective properties of the particular target and the environmental conditions at the
time the object is being distanced to.
The color, surface finish, size and shape of the target all affect reflectivity and range. The brighter the color,
the longer the range. Red is highly reflective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the color black,
which is the least reflective color. A shiny finish provides more range than a dull one. A small target is more
difficult to range than a larger target. The angle to the target also has an effect. Shooting to a target at a
90 degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the flight path of the emitted energy pulses)
provides good range while a steep angle on the other hand, provides limited ranging. In addition, lighting
conditions (e.g. the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit. The less light (e.g.
overcast skies) the farther the unit's maximum range will be. Conversely, very sunny days will decrease the
unit's maximum range.

While looking through the monocular, depress the power button once to
activate the inview display system (LCD). Aim the YARDAGE PRO SCOUT
at a target at least 10 yards away, depress and hold the power button down
until range reading is displayed. Release the power button. Your YARDAGE
PRO SCOUT features an adjustable eyepiece. Simply rotate the monocular
until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus to your eye. Note: Once
activated, the YARDAGE PRO SCOUT's LCD will remain active and display
the last distance measurement for 6 seconds. You can depress the power button
again at any time to distance to a new target. As with any laser device, it is
not recommended to directly view the emissions for long periods of time with
magnified lenses.
