3. Configuració

3.1 Instal·lació de la bateria

The device requires one CR2 battery. Follow these steps to install the battery:

1. Prepare a coin and a CR2 battery.
2. Insert the coin into the groove of the instrument battery compartment cover.
3. Rotate the cover counter-clockwise to open the battery compartment.
4. Insert the CR2 battery into the battery compartment, ensuring the positive pole faces forward (towards the front of the device). If the battery is inserted incorrectly, the instrument will not power on.
5. Cover the battery compartment and turn clockwise to tighten it. Press firmly to ensure the cover is securely closed and waterproof. If the cover is not tightened, the instrument may not start, and its waterproof integrity will be compromised.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

4.1 Engegada/Apagada i Mesurament Bàsic

Press the power button (usually the top button) to turn on the device. Aim the crosshairs at your target and press the power button again to take a measurement. The distance will be displayed on the LCD.

4.2 Canvi d'unitats

To switch between Yards (YD) and Meters (M), long-press the Mode Button (usually the bottom button) until the unit changes on the display.

4.3 Modes de mesura

The ARTBULL Laser Rangefinder offers 5 measurement modes. Press the Mode Button (short press) to cycle through the available modes:

1. L Mode (Line Distance): Measures the linear distance between the rangefinder and the target.
2. H Mode (Horizon Distance): Measures the horizontal distance between two points (A to C in the diagram).
3. V Mode (Vertical Distance): Measures the vertical distance (height difference) between two points (A to B in the diagram).
4. Golf Mode (Flagpole Locking): This mode prioritizes the nearest small object, eliminating peripheral interference to lock onto the flagpole for accurate ranging. Users can slowly move the equipment between different objects around the flagpole to ensure the laser recognizes the nearest object.
5. Height Difference Mode: Measures the height difference between two points (A to B in the diagram).

8. Consells d'usuari

• For best accuracy, ensure a steady hand or use a stable surface when taking measurements, especially at longer distances.
• In Golf Mode, if you have difficulty locking onto the flagpole, try scanning the area around the flag slowly to allow the device to identify the nearest object.
• Keep the rangefinder's lenses clean to prevent blurry readings and ensure optimal performance.
• Always carry the rangefinder in its protective case when not in use to prevent damage.
• The ergonomic design is intended for stable holding; utilize the grip for consistent measurements.
