1. Open the cover on the battery compartment by turning it counter-clockwise.
2. Insert the battery with the positive contact going in first (as per the markings in the battery compartment).
3. Close the cover by turning it clockwise.

Notes

• Low temperatures impair battery performance. Carry the Leica Rangemaster close to the body in low ambient temperatures and insert a fresh battery.
• Remove the battery if you will not be using your Leica Rangemaster for an extended period of time.
• Make sure to store the batteries in a cool, dry place.

BATTERY CHARGE LEVEL

The measured value and reticule display will flash when the battery nears depletion. You will still have enough power for another 100 measurements - but with a gradually reducing range - after the display initially begins flashing.

USE WITH AND WITHOUT EYE GLASSES

Users who do not wear glasses can leave the rubber eyecup 3 folded out (Figure A, as supplied). This position ensures the correct distance between your Leica Rangemaster and your eye. The rubber eyecup should be folded down (Figure B) when using the Leica Rangemaster while wearing glasses.

DIOPTERCOMPENSATION

Diopter compensation allows you to adjust the sharpness of the reticule to a value that is best for your vision. Simply aim the Leica Rangemaster at a distant object and turn the eyecup 3 to adjust the sharpness of the reticule. It is displayed in the viewfi nder when you press the main button 2. Check the set value on the scale 3a visible on the eyecup. Diopter compensation is available for vision defects of up to ± 3.5 diopters.

BASIC INFORMATION ON MENU CONTROL

The main menu consists of the following menu items:

-Meter/Yard display (USELI)
-Bluetooth-ready(bf).
- Ballistic curve (ball)
- Zeroing distance (Sld)
- Ballistic output formats (FBC)

4. Select Rtol to utilize the fully automated brightness control
5. Press the secondary button to save the setting.

SETTING THE UNIT OF MEASURE

The Leica Rangemaster can be set to metric or imperial units of measure, i.e. for distance/temperature/ atmospheric pressure either meters/Celsius/millibar or yards/Fahrenheit/InHg (Inches of Mercury). This setting also determines the details of the holdover, the ballistic curves and the zeroing distance.

1. Press and hold the secondary button ≥ 3 s).

USEU appears (flashing) in the display.

1. Press the main button to select your preferred unit of measure.

US = display in yards

EU = display in meters

Note

The current setting is always visible in the display: (for meters) or (for yards) appears with the digits displayed.

1. Save your setting by briefly pressing the secondary button (< 2s)

2. The saved setting is initially lit continuously as confirmation, then the display switches to the next item in the menu (ballistic curve ball) and then disappears if no further settings have been made.

2. Press the main button again.

3. The reticule disappears briefly during the measurement.
   The measured value is displayed.

You can do another measurement at any time by pressing the main button while the reticule remains lit.

• • • appears, if

• the distance to the object is less than 10 yards, or
  the range is exceeded or

• the object is not sufficiently reflective.

The Leica Rangemaster powers down automatically after a few seconds.

SCANMODE

The Leica Rangemaster can also be used for

continuous measurements (scan mode):

Press and hold the main button 2 at the second press.

After around 2.5 seconds, the device switches to scan mode and then carries out continuous measurements.

Scan mode is indicated by a change in the display.

Around every 0.5 seconds, a new measured value is shown.

Scan mode is particularly useful for measuring the distance to small, moving targets.

Notes

In scan mode, the ABC compensation value (see p. 45) appears only after the last measurement.
- Power consumption is much higher in scan mode than for single measurements.

MEASURING RANGE & ACCURACY

The maximum range is achieved with highly reflective target objects and a visual range of sight of around 10 km/11,000 yards. Long ranges can be reliably measured / achieved by holding the Leica Rangemaster very steadily and/or placing it on a solid surface. The measuring range is influenced by the following factors:

Highly reflective targets	2500 m
Trees	1500 m
Game	500 m

Range longer shorter
Color	white black
Angle to lens	perpendicular acute
Object size	large small
Sunlight	low (Cloudy)	high (midday sun)
Atmospheric conditions	clear hazy

The following ranges/tolerances apply for cloudy skies with good visibility:

Range in meters	Accuracy (1σ) Normal Mode	Accuracy (1σ) Scan Mode
10-200	+/- 0.5 +/- 1.5
200-400	+/- 1 +/- 2
400-800	+/- 2 +/- 3
Above 800	0.5 % 0.5 %

Note

Distances below 200m are displayed with an accuracy of one decimal place, e.g. 1645.

ATMOSPHERICCONDITIONSDISPLAY

To accurately calculate the point of impact (see following section), the Leica Rangemaster also determines three crucial pieces of additional information during the range measurement:

• the inclination of the unit
  -temperature
  -atmospheric pressure

Current values can be displayed at any time.

Press the secondary button 1 briefy 1x.

• The reticule appears briefly (if distance measurement was not previously activated) and then the following items appear in succession for around 2 s each instead of the range:
• inclination (indicated by an additional angle symbol)
  -temperature
  -atmospheric pressure

Note

If the housing of the Leica Rangemaster initially has a signifi cantly diff erent temperature than the surroundings, for example when moving from inside to outside, it can take up to 30 minutes before the internal sensor can display the correct ambient temperature again.

DETERMINING THE BALLISTIC CURVE

For the precise determination of the impact point correction, the Leica Rangemaster includes the bullet trajectory on the basis of the used caliber, as well as the bullet type and weight in the calculation. This can optionally include the calculation adjustment for the equivalent horizontal distance (EHr, see p. 53) the holdover (HOLD, see p. 22) or the sight adjustment (1/1-4/1-3/10/5, see p. 54). Twelve different ballistic curves are available for adaptation to the equipment you are using. Look for the ballistic curve that is closest to the zeroing distance specified by the ammunition manufacturer as the point of impact.

Example

The rifle scope is zeroed to 100 meters, which means that Table 1 is applicable. The specified point of impact for the ammunition used is -15.0 cm at 200 m. In the relevant column, this is closest to the value 14.5 cm in row EU7 - and is therefore the correct ballistic curve.

Note

We recommend determining ballistic data in practical tests to select an appropriate curve when using the Leica Rangemaster's ballistic function at distances longer than 300m / yds and/or ammunition types that are not included in the internal device settings.

Alternatively, you can calculate a curve using the Leica ballistics calculator and then transfer the information to the device via Bluetooth®.

Alternatively, ballistic data can be transferred to your Leica Rangemaster via Bluetooth using an appropriately equipped Nielsen-Kellermann/Kestrel device (Elie models or similar, with software by Applied Ballistics),

Setting the ballistic curve

Start with step 1 if you have not previously opened the menu control, or with step 3 if you have just set the unit of measure and b_all is still flashing in the display.

1. Press and hold the secondary button ( ≥ 3 ) .

EUJ5 appears.

1. Press the secondary button briefly (≥ 3s)

2. b+ is displayed.

3. Press the secondary button briefly (<2 s) 1 time.

The display switches to the ballistic curves ball.

1. Press the main button

The display switches to EUI or USI

1. Select a ballistic curve by pressing the main button repeatedly.

2. EUI to EUI2 or US1 to US12, or

-CCs+ if you wish to use a curve previously stored by the app

• Select BFF if you don't want to display an impact setting shown on the distance display (ABC, see p. 53 ff).

• under bt, menu item Lrt if you wish to transfer data from a relevantly equipped Nielsen-Kellermann device (Kestrel Elite models) via Bluetooth® or

• Save your setting by briefly pressing the secondary button.

• The saved setting is initially lit continuously for 4 s as confirmation, then the display changes first to the zeroing distance setting (Sd) and then disappears.

Once a ballistic curve is set, the device will display the range value for 2 s and then the calculated correction value for 6 s after each distance measurement.

NIELSEN-KELLERMANN/KESTREL/APPLIEDBALLISTICS (LH)

The LRT setting allows you to use ballistic correction values calculated by Applied Ballistics as an alternative for Leica ballistics (ABC, see p. 53 ff). This requires a relevantly equipped Nielsen-Kellermann device (Kestrel Elite models). It can contact your Leica Rangemaster, once you have activated its Bluetooth® function (see p. 10). The Leica Rangemaster will then measure the range and the angle and sends the information to the Kestrel Elite device. That device will include the received data in its calculation of the ballistic values and will subsequently deliver the relevant correction values to your Leica Rangemaster. Make sure to configure the Kestrel Elite device before use. Please refer to the device manual for further details on its operation.

Notes

• Leica Camera AG cannot accept liability for the accuracy of values transmitted to the Leica Rangemaster.
  Please note the following:

• Powerful electric fields, e.g. emanating from radar systems, may cause errors and/or faulty values.

• The geomagnetic field can similarly cause deviations.
• Please also not the ranges applicable for the Nielsen-Kellermann/Kestrel device used, which are provided in the device manual.

GEE [m] or
-100 [y] or
-800 [y] or
-300 [y].

1. Save your setting by briefly pressing the secondary button.

2. The saved setting is initially lit continuously for 4 s as confirmation, then the display switches to FBC and then disappears.

BALLISTIC OUTPUT FORMATS (ABC™)

The advanced ballistic compensation (FbC) on the Leica Rangemaster allows you to display one of the following three ballistic values after the measured range if required:

• the equivalent horizontal range (EH-)
• the corresponding holdover (HOLD)
• the number of clicks required on the rapid reticle adjustment (MOA clicks)

Both the displayed holdover and EH-values factor in:

a. the measured range to the target
b. the angle of inclination of the weapon
c. the ballistic curve set,
d. the zeroing distance set

Notes

• The calculation of the stated values is based on the currently set ballistic curve, i.e. the curve must be selected first (see p. 48).
• For safety reasons, ballistic output values are only specified up to a range of 800m/yds . The actual measured range is also specified.

Important

• Please note that the influence of all ballistically relevant influencing factors is greatly increased at longer ranges and considerable variations may occur. The ballistic values displayed should therefore only be viewed as a guideline.
• Regardless of whether this information is used, you are responsible for assessing the relevant hunting situation.

BALLISTIC OUTPUT FORMATS (LR+)

The displays in Lat mode consist of the following:

U	Up (i.e. upward correction)
d	down (i.e. downward correction)
L	left (i.e. correction to the left)
r	right (i.e. correction to the right)

SETTINGS AND SELECTION OF BALLISTIC OUTPUT FORMATS

Start with step 1 if you have not previously opened the menu control, or with step 3 if you have just set the zeroing distance and ABC is still flashing in the display.

1. Press and hold the secondary button (≥ 3s)

USEU appears.

1. Save your setting by briefly pressing the secondary button.

2. The saved setting is initially lit continuously for 4 s as confirmation, then the display disappears.

EQUIVALENT HORIZONTAL RANGE (EH)

Shots at higher or lower elevation targets are subject to changed ballistic conditions. They require knowledge of the equivalent horizontal range, which is relevant for hunting. Knowledge of the EH is important for using e.g. ballistic reticles. EH values are indicated by the additional EH display.

Note

Horizontal EH measurements may also result in values that differ from the "straight line" measured range.

HOLDOVER (HOLD)

Holdover is defined as the point that you aim at with the weapon instead of the actual target point to compensate for the variation caused by the trajectory of the bullet (e.g. when using classic hunting reticles). By displaying the holdover, the Leica Rangemaster can provide valuable support in achieving the most accurate shots possible when hunting. In addition to the range, the calculation is based on the general conditions discussed in the previous section and the ballistic curve you have selected.

Note

The holdover/elevation is always shown with reference to the range to the target. Example: You would have to aim 30 cm higher on the object than without compensation if 300 m 30 is displayed.

IMPACT POINT CORRECTION USING ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT

(Click/MoA adjustment)

Variations in the point of impact can be compensated by adjusting the reticle on your rifle scope accordingly. Based on the bullet trajectory and the zeroing distance (see p. 51), the Leica Rangemaster can show you the required adjustment, i.e. the relevant number of clicks. For different elevations, you can specify whether the click levels will be

• based on the international standard MOA (minutes of angle) graduation, or
  displayed in 5 or 10 millimeter increments.

INSTALLING FIRMWARE UPDATES

Leica is continuously working on the further development and optimization of its products. Since many of the functions of your Leica Rangemaster are controlled exclusively by software, some of these improvements and expansions of the functional scope can be installed at a later time. That is why so-called firmware updates are introduced. This device is supplied with the latest firmware ex factory. You can implement these updates yourself using the Leica Sportoptics app, which is available as a free download at the Google Play StoreTM for AndroidTM devices and the Apple App StoreTM for iOSTM devices.

Important

Do not switch off the device during the update process!

Note

The information contained in this manual references the most current firmware version at the time of market launch.

CARE/CLEANING

Your Leica Rangemaster requires no special care. Coarse dirt particles like sand can be removed with a soft brush or simply blown off. Fingerprints, etc. on lenses and eyepieces can be removed with a damp cloth, and the surfaces must then be wiped with a clean leather or lint-free cloth.

Important

• Avoid rigorous rubbing on lens surfaces even in case of stubborn dirt. Although the coating is highly abrasion-resistant, it can nevertheless be damaged by sand or salt crystals.
• The housing should be cleaned with a damp cloth only. Using a dry cloth may cause friction, which may result in a static discharge. Never use alcohol and other chemical solutions for cleaning the lenses or the housing. Each Leica Rangemaster has an individual serial number in addition to its type designation. Please take note of this number as a safety measure.

Attention

Do not attempt to open the device under any circumstances!
