The horizontal distance is calculated in the first target priority mode (MF icon on the display) and the distant target priority mode (ML icon on the display). The horizontal distance feature can be used when your position regarding the target is elevated or lowered (Fig. 2).

First target priority mode

The first target priority mode is the most helpful when playing golf. In this mode (MF icon on the display), the device will search for the nearest target, ignoring all of the background distractions, and display the straight line distance, horizontal distance, and current angle value (Fig. 3).

Note

  • If there is more than one target, the nearest one will be displayed.

Distant target priority mode

The distant target priority mode is the most helpful when hunting. In this mode (ML icon on the display), the device will search for the furthest target, ignoring all of the foreground distractions, and display the straight line distance, horizontal distance, and current angle value (Fig. 4).

Note: If there is more than one target, the furthest one will be displayed.
