Quick Start Guide
- Position Board
- Locate Metal Case: use this circular hole as the TEE position when the launch monitor has a protective cover.
- Locate Monitor: Use this circular hole as the TEE position when the launch monitor does not have a protective cover.
- Swing Instructions
- Note: Firmware v3.0.8 and above supports Mark-free balls (stickers still required on the head). Compatible with black or dark-colored logo balls, not with pure white, blue, or red logo balls.
- Position Board Placement
- Pass TEE through the “Locate Monitor” hole. Ensure Position Board is level with the hitting mat.
- Place the Launch Monitor on the equipment positioning spot and ensure it is parallel to the reference line.
- The sensing area size is shown in the figure.
- Alignment Stick
- Prerequisites
- Use the GOLFJOY Lite app, version V2.3.5 or higher.(Computer client not supported)
- Firmware version: GDSPLUS_V3.0.8 or higher.
- For early shipments, you may encounter the following issues when using this feature. Please contact customer support for solutions.
- Instructions
- The Alignment Stick consists of three segments initially, with a total length of 39.37 inches (100cm) when assembled.
- Position the three markers of the Alignment Stick according to the diagram provided to obtain the TEE position. Ensure that the launch monitor is properly connected. Place the golf ball in the sensing area to test for a response.
- Locate Metal Case: Use this circular hole as the TEE position when the launch monitor has a protective cover.
- Locate Monitor: Use this circular hole as the TEE position when the launch monitor does not have a protective cover.
- Once the sensing area is determined, you can further calibrate the direction of your shots using the Alignment Stick. Position the Alignment Stick approximately 13.8 -19.7 inches {35cm to 50cm) in front of the sensor lens (you can use the Alignment Stick for a rough measurement). The direction of the Alignment Stick represents the target direction of the shot.
- Open the app and connect to the launch monitor. On the device interface, you will find the entry point. Tap on it to proceed.
- The Alignment Stick represents the target direction of the shot. You can make slight adjustments to the sensor’s orientation. Observe the angle between the yellow horizontal line and the white dashed line on the screen, which should be within ±0.5°. This indicates that the direction calibration is complete. Tap “Finish” to exit.
