PINSEEKER™ WITH VISUAL JOLT®
Ever have trouble getting distance to the flag? This advanced mode allows easy acquisition of the flag without inadvertently
getting distances to background targets (i.e. trees) that have stronger signal strength.
For ease of use, the device will always be in PinSeeker™ Mode.
To use, align the aiming circle reticle onto the flag that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the Power/Fire button and
move the laser slowly across an area until the aiming circle at the center of the display is located over the flag or desired
object. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (for example, the flag and a group of trees behind it), only the
distance to the closest object (the flag) will be displayed. The JOLT Technology provides two short bursts of vibration to
confirm that the distance displayed is to the flag, and the red ring (Visual JOLT Indicator) around the outer edge of the
display is activated, confirming the laser has ranged the correct target via Pinseeker. There may be times when the laser
beam only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but because more than one object was not
acquired, no JOLT indication will be provided.
Tip: While pressing the Power/Fire button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects
to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the objects recognized by the laser. Once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back
to the last mode used.
SLOPE SWITCH
When slope is enabled by sliding the Slope Switch on the side of the unit to the
left so the red Slope indicator is visible (see photo, right), Bushnell's patented
Slope Technology is displayed. The Slope +/- mode will automatically
compute an angle compensated range based upon distance and slope
determined by the laser rangefinder and built-in inclinometer. This data is
then combined with internal algorithmic formulas dealing with average club
use and ball trajectories. The angle compensated range provides direction
on how to play the shot (i.e. add distance if an incline, subtract distance if
a decline). Slide the Slope Switch right, and your Pro XE now conforms to
USGA Rule 14-3, with the slope compensated ranging feature removed.
ELEMENTS
With Slope mode selected (Slope Switch to left with red indicator exposed), the display will show the percent grade of tilt/
incline to the hole or obstacle (with the flag or other target in the aiming circle) and "Play As" compensated distance below
the normal "Line of Sight" distance when the laser is fired. You also have the option of activating the Elements feature by
pressing the Mode button (toggles between Elements on/off. ) "ON" is indicated by the Elements Mode icon (
display.
When Elements Mode is on, the Slope compensated distance also factors in the air pressure and temperature at your location
on the golf course. For example, the ball will travel farther through thinner air at higher altitudes (assuming it is hit with the
same force). Note: once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back to the last mode used.
HOW TO USE SLOPE +/-™
Once in this mode, you will see a " - - - " in the field of view informing you that you are in the Slope +/- Mode. Press the
Power/Fire button to obtain distance to the flag or other objects. Once the range is displayed, release the Power/Fire button.
Once you have released the Power/Fire button, a grade percentage and compensated range will be displayed beneath the
standard distance.
For example, if the true distance is 180 yards, but with a slope of +4 percent,
the slope compensated ("play-as") range is 182 yards. The display would show this (right):
THE ADVANTAGE OF SLOPE +/-™
The distance to the black flag in the drawing (see next page) is 160 yards. It is also 160 yards to the red flag, although it is on
a slope with a 6% grade (uphill incline). However, if you were to play this hole as 160 yards, the ball (X) would fall short of the
hole/flag because you did not take slope into account. Due to the slope (plus pressure and temperature with Elements Mode
on), it should be played as a 171 yard shot. This will be displayed as your "play as" distance below the line of sight distance.
TIP: While pressing the Power/Fire button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force
the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the nearest of the objects recognized by the laser.
