HOW OUR DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WORKS

e Pro X2 emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. e Pro X2 Advanced Digital microprocessor and ASIC chip (Application-Specic Integrated Circuit) results in instantaneous and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangender, to the target, and back. RANGING ACCURACY e ranging accuracy of the Pro X2 is plus or minus one yard / meter under most circumstances. e maximum range of the instrument depends on the reectivity of the target. e maximum distance for most objects is 1000 yards / 914 meters while for highly reective objects the maximum is 1300 yards / 1189 meters. Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances depending on the reflective properties of the particular target and the environmental conditions at the time the distance of an object is being measured. The color, surface finish, size and shape of the target all affect reflectivity and range. The brighter the color, the longer the range. Red is highly reflective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the color black, which is the least reflective color. A shiny finish provides more range than a dull one. A small target is more difficult to range than a larger target. The angle to the target also has an effect. Shooting to a target at a 90 degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the flight path of the emitted energy pulses) provides good range while a steep angle on the other hand, provides limited ranging. In addition, lighting conditions (e.g. the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit. The less light (e.g. overcast skies) the farther the unit’s maximum range will be. Conversely, very sunny days will decrease the unit’s maximum range. E.S.P.2™ (Extreme. Speed. Precision. 2nd generation), our advanced second generation ranging technology, provides the fastest, most accurate ranging measurement based on target conditions. The laser analyzes multiple individual measurements to the target and calculates and displays the best possible result. Target variations such as reflectance, shape and color can affect the accuracy of a laser measurement, but E.S.P.2™ automatically assesses the conditions and improves the measurement up to 1/2 Yard Accuracy whenever possible from 5–125 yards. When this occurs, display readout precision will be refined to 1/10th yard. For those who prefer their distances displayed in whole units (full yard or meters), E.S.P.2™ can be disabled in the Setup Menu.5 DUAL DISPLAY TECHNOLOGY GETTING STARTED OPERATIONAL SUMMARY While looking through the Pro X2, depress the power button once to activate the display. Place the aiming circle (located in the center of the eld of view) upon a target at least 5 yards away, depress and hold the power button down until the range reading is displayed near the bottom of the in-view display. Crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is being transmitted. Once a range has been acquired, you can release the power button. e crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle will disappear once the power button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted). Note: Once activated, the display will remain active and display the last distance measurement for 7 seconds. You can depress the power button again at any time to distance to a new target. As with any laser device, it is not recommended to directly view the emissions for long periods of time with magnified lenses. The maximum time the laser is transmitted (fired) is 7 seconds. To re-fire, press the button down again.

ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE

e Pro X2 is equipped with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows you to focus the display relative to the image. Simply rotate the eyepiece until the display is in focus. DUAL DISPLAY (SELECTING RED OR BLACK DISPLAY) e Pro X2 features Dual Display Technology, which lets you easily toggle between a bright red display featuring VDT (Vivid Display Technology) or a crisp black display, based on lighting conditions or your preference. To toggle between red and black displays, briey press and release the round “B” logo plate on the left side of the unit.6 SLOPE-SWITCH TECHNOLOGY Slope-Switch Technology lets the golfer easily turn Bushnell’s patented Slope function on and o . is allows the golfer to conveniently utilize Slope to get compensated distances around the course when they want it and have a USGA conforming device that is legal for tournament play when they need it. DISPLAY INDICATORS Your Pro X2 display incorporates the following illuminated indicators: PinSeeker™ Indicator (1) Aiming Reticle (2) Battery Life Indicator (3) Active Laser (4) Distance Displayed in Yards/Meters () Slope Compensated Distance ()

BATTERY LIFE INDICATOR

Battery Indicator: Full charge 2/3 battery life remaining 1/3 battery Life remaining Battery Indicator Blinks - Battery needs to be replaced and unit will not be operable.

Remove the Posi-read™ battery door by lifting the battery door tab and then rotating counter clockwise. Insert a CR2 3-volt lithium battery into the compartment negative end rst, then replace the Posi-read™ battery door. Note: It is recommended that the battery be replaced at least once every 6 months. ACTIVE LASER Crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is being transmitted. Once a range has been acquired, you can release the power button. e crosshairs surrounding the circle will disappear once the power button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted). PINSEEKER

Ever have trouble getting distance to the ag? is advanced mode allows easy acquisition of the ag 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 ag that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the power button and move the laser slowly over the ag or desired object until a circle surrounds the ag indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. ag and background trees), distance of the ag will be displayed and a circle will surround the PinSeeker™ indicator informing the user that distance to the ag (i.e. closer object) is being displayed. e Jolt Technology provides two short bursts of vibration to conrm that the distance displayed is to the ag. ere may be times when only 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, a circle will not surround the ag indicator. Tip: While pressing the Power 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.8 PINSEEKER

When slope is enabled by sliding the slope switch on the side of the unit up until “SLOPE” is visible, Bushnell’s patented Slope Technology is displayed. e Slope +/- mode will automatically compute an angle compensated range based upon distance and slope angle determined by the laser rangender and built-in inclinometer. is data is then combined with internal algorithmic formulas dealing with average club use and ball trajectories. e 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 back down out of slope mode, and your Pro X2 now conforms to USGA Rule 14-3, with the slope angle compensated ranging feature removed.

Once in this mode, you will see a “ - - - ” in the eld of view informing you that you are in the Slope +/- Mode. Press the Power button to obtain distance to the ag or other objects. Once the range is displayed, release the Power button. Once you have released the power button, a degree of angle and compensated range will be displayed beneath the standard distance. In the example on the next page, the true distance is 162 yards, slope is +4 degrees, and the compensated (“play-as”) range is 173 yards. e display would show this:9

e distance to ag A in the drawing below is 162 yards. It is also 162 yards to ag B although it is on a slope. However, if you were to play this hole as 162 yards, the ball (X) would fall short of the hole/ag because you did not take slope into account. DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS V.D.T. e Pro X2 has Vivid Display Technology. is bright red LED display dramatically improves contrast, clarity, and light transmission while increasing brightness of the digital readout, making distance readings legible in low light environments. ere are four intensity settings to choose from and this is the rst setting within the SETUP menu. Hold the Mode button (“B” logo on side of device) for 3 seconds to get into the SETUP menu. e existing brightness setting will be ashing (i.e. BRT1, BRT2, BRT3, or BRT4). Pressing the Mode (“B” logo) button will toggle between the four brightness settings. “BRT1” is the lowest intensity while “BRT4” is the brightest. Simply press the Mode button until the desired brightness setting is displayed, then press and release the Power button to save the setting.

UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS

e Pro X2 can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. e unit of measure indicators are located in the lower right portion of the display. ere are two measuring settings to choose from and this is the second setting within the SETUP menu. Look through the eyepiece, depress the Mode button (“B” logo) and hold it down for approximately 3 seconds to get into the SETUP menu. Brief presses of the Mode button will toggle through the brightness settings if the bright red LED display is selected. Press the Power button to go to the Unit of Measure options, and again briey press the Mode button to select your preference. A change in unit of measure will be indicated by the illumination of the M for meter indicator while the Y for Yard indicator is turned o. If you are changing from meters to yards, the opposite will occur. e Pro X2 will return to the last unit of measure setting used each time the unit is turned on.

e Pro X2 distance readout to a tenth of a yard/meter (E.S.P.2 feature) can be enabled/disabled per user preference. With “ESP O” selected (E.S.P.2 disabled), distances will be indicated only in whole yards/meters. With“ESP On” selected (E.S.P.2 enabled), distances will be indicated to a tenth of a yard/meter.
