STEPS
1. Choose your tee position
2. Select your target line (tree, flag, or other marker)
3. Place the FlightScope behind the tee on the target line.
4. Rotate the FlightScope so that its face points along the target line
Recommended distance behind tee: 8 ft. to 14 ft. (2.4 to 4.2 m)
Sensor Roll range is ±0.5˚. Tilt range is 9.5˚ to 11˚. Adjust floor or feet if
needed.
Motorized Feet
FlightScope X2 Elite’s motorized feet will automatically adjust the tilt and roll
angles to compensate for any uneven surfaces after switching on, and during
operation.
Environment
Use where the floor or ground is reasonably level
Ensure that there are no obstructions in front of the FlightScope sensor
Fluorescent lights and certain electrical equipment can interfere with
measurements. Switch interfering lights off, or install a wire mesh screen in
light diffusers or over interfering machines.
Battery Charging
Recharge your batteries before an important session. The battery requires
approx. 7-8 hours to fully charge.
To charge: Connect the power supply unit to mains power. While charging, the
Charging LED (amber) will flash on and off at an interval of approximately 1
sec.
When the battery is fully charged, the Charging LED will remain on.
