2. To focus and increase clarity, use the Diopter Adjustment by turning the Eye Piece.
3. Continue looking through the Eye Piece, aim the Zero-In Aiming Circle at your intended target, and press the Power Button. The laser will fire and the Laser Indicator Box will appear around the Zero-In Aiming Circle. The measurement will be displayed at the top of the LCD display.

Measurement LCD ard: Recommended for measuring distances to larger objects.

• Pin Acquisition Technology (P.A.T.) Mode: Use when measuring distances to a flagstick. The measurement will change only when a shorter distance is measured, which is useful when there are trees or other objects in the background.
• Scanning: To measure distances to multiple targets in succession, press and release the Power Button to power on. Then hold the Power Button, and the laser will continuously fire. Measurements will change as you scan the landscape and change targets.
• Unit of Measure: To change the unit of measure from Yards to Meters, start with the device powered off. Then hold the Mode Button for 3 seconds. The unit of measure is indicated by a Y or M shown directly to the right of the distance displayed.

Slope Function
The device will measure the angle of incline/decline in the bottom right of the display (A), then calculate and display the slope-adjusted distance in the bottom left of the display (B).

The Slope switch on the side of the 300 PRO has two positions:

• Off: Disables slope calculation.
• On: Enables slope calculation.

HOW TO USE

1. While looking through the Eye Piece, PRESS and RELEASE the Power Button. The rangefinder is now powered on.
2. To focus/increase clarity, use the Diopter Adjustment by turning the Eye Piece.
3. Continue looking through the Eye Piece, aim the Zero-In Aiming Circle at your intended target, and PRESS the Power Button. The laser will fire and the Laser Indicator Box will appear around the Zero-In Aiming Circle. The measurement will be displayed at the top of the LCD.

MEASUREMENT MODES

1. 1.  **Standard**  – Standard Mode is recommended when measuring distances to larger objects. (Fig. A)

2. P.A.T. with Pulse Technology – P.A.T. Mode is best used when measuring the distance to a Flagstick or smaller objects. The device will provide a short vibration to confirm that the laser has locked onto the pin. To toggle between Standard and P.A.T Mode, quickly PRESS the Mode Button once while the device is powered on. When P.A.T. Mode is activated, the flagstick icon will appear on the left side & the Pulse icon will appear at the top of the LCD (Fig. B). To turn Pulse ON/OFF, quickly PRESS the Mode Button Twice.
3. • NOTE : While scanning in P.A.T. Mode, the measurement will only change when a shorter distance is measured. This is useful when measuring the distance to a flagstick when there are trees or other objects in the background.
4. Unit of Measure – To change the unit of measure from Yards to Meters, start with the device powered off. Then HOLD the Mode Button for 3 seconds. The unit of measure is indicated by a “Y” or “M” shown directly to the right of the distance displayed.

SLOPE FUNCTION
The device will measure the angle of incline/decline in the bottom right of the display (A), then calculate & display the slope-adjusted distance in the bottom left of the display (B).

The Slope switch on the Side of the 300 PRO has two positions

1. RED shows that the slope function is off. The Laser is tournament-legal when the slope is turned off.
2. GREEN is showing: Slope function is enabled. Slope-adjusted yardage will be displayed after every time the laser is fired. The Laser is not tournament-legal when the slope is enabled.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

1. The maximum measurement range is 5-1000 yards to objects and 5- 300 yards to a flagstick with +/- 1-yard accuracy.
   • NOTE : Maximum range can depend on several factors, including target characteristics and environmental conditions. For instance, longer maximum distances may be obtained to targets that are large, brightly colored, or have a reflective finish. Ranging capability can also be affected by the angle to the target and lighting conditions.
2. Auto Shutoff  – To conserve battery life, the device will automatically power off when idle for more than 10 seconds.
3. Weather Conditions  – Heavy rain and thick fog can potentially limit the maximum range of the device.
4. Weather Resistant  – Protected against light rain.

STORING THE LASER

Do not leave the eyepiece in direct sunlight. The condenser effect of the lens may damage the internal display surface.
