Important: Recon Instruments recommends that users turn the Display Off at any time if it is found too bright, distracting in
any way, or if it interferes with your ability to safely perform any activity. MOD has been designed to be unobtrusive, and
just like the dashboard of any motor vehicle, it is meant not to be continuously focussed on during use, but helpful in offering
important information at momentary glances. Just like a dashboard, it’s brightness may be controlled and even turned off by
your choiceSetting Preferences in MOD
Page 15 of 39
4.7 Memory and Data Storage
MOD offers storage of Up to 50 hours of recorded data. At any time you can upload all data from MOD directly to your
Recon HQ software that is provided from http://www.reconinstruments.com/download-latest-recon-hq-software. It is
recommended that you download MOD data after every trip to maintain appropriate available space. To learn more about
Recon HQ see section 2.4
Whenever you power off MOD for longer than 6 hours or you use the RESET STATS feature in preferences, MOD will save
and reset all of your Last Run, Performance, Elevation, and Mountain stats pages. In addition it will reset all Jumps and
Chrono records.
Resetting the stats is not the same as deleting your data. Even though old stats become inaccessible on the MOD display
following a reset, your data is always saved in memory and will not be erased until you connect to ReconHQ for download.
Important: To be sure that no data is compromised while recording, be sure to maintain a strong battery level, and try not
to let MOD’s battery drain completely. To learn more, see ‘About MOD’s Battery’
4.8 Replacing the Remote Battery

flathead screwdriver by turning the cover clockwise.
Page 16 of 39
5.
The Real-time Dashboard
MOD is used in fast-paced environments and as such it is not recommended to cycle through buttons, screens, and menus
during activities that require your full attention. The Dashboard offers pieces of information to aid you in a hands-free
fashion, with real-time statistics every second. There is also a configurable area of the dashboard that allows you to quickly
view your current statistics like Current Altitude, Total Vertical, Total Distance, and Current Temperature.
5.1 Speedometer
The largest piece of information on the Dashboard is the Speedometer represented by the dial highlighted in the above
image. The Speedometer dial lights up clockwise as your speed increases. Once your speed reaches 100km/h the dial will
begin to be lit up red. At this point it is suggested that you adjust your speed appropriately to maintain the safety of
yourself and others. Always perform sporting activities within the boundaries of your personal skill and comfort levels.
The Speedometer also displays real-time speed values in the bold numbers below the dial. When dashes are displayed
instead of speed numbers it means that MOD has not acquired a GPS signal strong enough to supply accurate data. See
‘GPS Signals’ in ‘Tips and Troubleshooting’ to learn more.
5.2 Chrono/Stopwatch
Just beneath the Status Bar, to the right of the Speedometer lies the Chrono/Stopwatch. When not in use, the numbers are
greyed-out as below.
Press SELECT to activate Chrono/Stopwatch mode, the numbers will turn yellow and start counting
Pressing SELECT a second time will stop the chrono and save the results to the Chrono history
Pressing SELECT a third time will reset the counter and grey-out the numbers once again so it is ready for another timed
activity.
Any timed activity will be saved to the memory and can be managed (viewed, flagged, deleted) on the Chrono/Stopwatch
screen. See ‘Chrono/Stopwatch Feature’ to learn more.
Page 17 of 39
5.3 Configurable Feature
The Dashboard has four configurations that can be changed quickly by using the Left and Right buttons. Scroll between
these dashboards to view your current Altitude, Total Distance, Total Vertical, and current Temperature. Your choice of
configuration is saved, so when you return to the Dashboard from another menu, or when you power off and power on
MOD you will be presented with the configuration that you last used.

Display fails to reactivate after selecting “DISPLAY OFF”
1.
Hold the Power/Select button to power MOD off, then power back on
GPS Fix takes longer than 10 minutes
1.
2.
3.
GPS technology works best in open spaces with a clear view of the sky. Obstructions such as buildings and
trees can degrade the signal. Additionally MOD will take longer to acquire a GPS fix when it is first powered on
after being off for a long time.
If you are having difficulty acquiring a GPS fix try moving to a more open location.
If MOD still does not acquire a location fix, hold the Power/Select button to power MOD off, then power back
on

you download data to your PC/Mac
Recon Instruments recommends frequently transferring data to your PC/Mac to maintain the health and
performance of MOD
MOD’s speedometer displays inaccurate speeds
1.
2.
MOD uses GPS to determine speed. GPS technology works best in open spaces with a clear view of the sky.
Obstructions such as buildings and trees can degrade the signal. If you observe unusual speeds, try moving to
a more open location.
GPS performance is poorest when it is first powered on. GPS reliability should improve as more GPS satellite
are located by MOD

1.
Connection from the board to the display may be loose or broken from mishandling or misuse. Contact
www.reconinstruments.com/support for support information.
Temperature displayed in MOD is too high/low
1.
Like any thermometer, MOD’s temperature sensor takes some time to adjust to the ambient air temperature.
The thermometer is located inside the wireless remote. For the thermometer to accurately measure the
outside air temperature, wear the remote on the outside of your body, instead of keeping in an inside pocket.
Cleaning the optic lens
1.
2.
3.
Do not touch the optic lens with fingers or rough objects.
Always clean the optic with a soft cloth, lens cloth or goggle bag
Always store the MOD in an approved Recon-Ready goggle or in its original packaging to reduce the chance of
scratches
MOD has GPS fix but still displays “--“ instead of valid speed
1.

Incorrect time on power Up after MOD has been in storage
1.
2.
If you have set the clock to local time, MOD will automatically remember the time every time you power it on.
However, if MOD has been in storage for many days without charging, the battery may drain completely and
shut off the internal clock. If this occurs, the clock will not be set properly after charging and powering Up
Simply set the time in the “SET TIME” screen under “PREFERENCES” if you encounter this problem
Display does not turn on
1.
2.
3.
If the goggle has been powered off and stored in temperatures below -20°C (-4°F), the display may not
activate when powered on. Try warming Up the display by moving indoors, or by wearing MOD for 10 minutes
before turning on.
Try charging MOD using the Recon AC adapter for 1 hour, then attempt to power on.
Contact www.reconinstruments.com/support if problem persists
Chrono does not start after pressing the Power/Select button
1.

To start a new chrono, press the Power/Select button again. The numbers will change colour to YELLOW and
the timer will begin counting.
Clock is adjusted automatically
1.
MOD uses GPS time to automatically adjust the clock to the nearest time zone. This occurs immediately after
acquiring a GPS fix.
Display is too bright while viewing at night
1.
You can adjust the display brightness in the “BRIGHTNESS” menu under “PREFERENCES”. There are 3
brightness options: High, Med, and Low. Additionally, you can use the “DISPLAY OFF” feature to quickly
deactivate the display, while continuing to record to memory.
Altitude inaccuracy
1.
2.
3.
MOD calculates altitude using a combination of air pressure and GPS data. When MOD is stationary, it adjusts
the altitude reading obtained from the pressure sensor to match the GPS reading. However air pressure can
change significantly with varying weather. This can cause altitude readings to be different from the actual
altitude.
If altitude is inaccurate after you have been in an open area for more than 30 minutes, try turning off the MOD
and turning it back on. The altitude reading should become more accurate within 10 minutes.
In general, clear weather will cause an increase in the displayed altitude, and stormy weather will cause a
decrease in the displayed altitude.
12. Safety, Storage, and Cleaning
MOD is a piece of electronics and should be handled safely, cleaned and stored properly. It is advised to handle MOD as if it
were an MP3 player or Smart Phone; protecting and charging in a safe place after use.
Put away dry and protected in a room-temperature location away from sharp and harmful, or magnetic items. Do not store
outside or exposed over night. Do not lay directly in the sun for long periods of time. Do not place items directly on top of
MOD. It is not advised to store or pack MOD for travel with other hardgoods such as skis or snowboards, or inside of ski and
snowboard bags.

12.1Important Safety Information
Recon Instruments’ customized optics platform boasts a virtual image focused 5’ away from the eye, which means eye
strain is not a concern to the majority of users. Testing has shown that eye strain is no different than viewing the flatscreen
television in your home. If at any time you experience nausea or eye strain when using MOD, take a break for several
minutes. If you experience or have a history of any other health issues that would stop you from participating in
recreational alpine activities such as skiing or snowboarding, please consult your physician before using MOD.
It is not suggested to wear eyeglasses along with ski goggles as the two may rub and cause abrasion or injury to the user
and equipment. Please consult your optician before attempting to wear multiple eyewear solutions when skiing.
This device and it's accessories are not toys for small children, and it may be possible to remove small parts and ingest
them. Please keep our product out of reach of small children and used for their intended purposes in a supervised way.
MOD receives signals from GPS satellites, and uses Bluetooth low energy to communicate with the remote. Switch the
device off in restricted areas; for example, in aircraft, near medical equipment, fuel, chemicals, or blasting areas.
MOD can be susceptible to interference which could affect GPS and remote connectivity.
MOD is classified as water resistant. Do not submerge MOD in water. Always store MOD in a warm and dry location.
