Distance measurement up to 1,800 meters The FLAGMASTER 1800 offers you the possibility to measure a reflective object accurately and repeatedly up to a distance of 1,800 meters. (The maximum measuring distance depends on the ambient conditions and the reflectivity of the object)The new FLAGMASTER is an optical precision instrument for accurate and fast measurement of distances, which works properly on all golf courses and under all conditions. This manual describes the functions of the distance meter and explains how to use the individual technologies to improve your golf game. Please read the instructions thoroughly to get the most out of your new product.The FLAGMASTER was developed to meet all your golf distance measurement needs with laser technology. The FLAGMASTER was developed with great emphasis on an intuitive user-friendliness. The integrated PINFINDER⢠and SLOPE technology was combined with one of the fastest laser distance measuring systems on the market, and the excellent optical quality allows you to concentrate on the essentials.The FLAGMASTER is very compact and designed for one-handed operation. Its soft-touch coating ensures safe handling. The eyepiece has an integrated diopter adjustment, which adapts to each user. The FLAGMASTER has a 6x zoom and measures the distance between 6 and 1,800 meters, depending on the ambient conditions. The integrated PINFINDER⢠technology confirms the exact distance to the flag.The FLAGMASTER uses an infrared laser and detector to accurately determine the distance to a target. By sending out a series of eye-safe laser pulses and determining the time that these pulses take to reach the target and return from there, the FLAGMASTER can calculate an exact distance. The distance measuring system uses advanced algorithms that are executed within the digital signal processor to improve the range performance and to increase the maximum range performance of the device.PinfinderThe FLAGMASTER has a PinFinder, which allows you to target the flag. Some golf courses use a retro reflector or prism attached to top of the pin. In the PinFinder mode, you will see the flag icon on the display. Move the target or direction of the display toward the flag or the tip of the pin. Press and hold the Range button (yourFLAGMASTER automatically switches to scan mode). Carefully move the target point over the flag or prism while holding down the Range button. When you have captured the flag or prism, a circle around the flag icon appears in the display confirming that the pin has been captured and you feel a vibration should it be on. After releasing the range button, the distance is displayed for 10 seconds.This text is machine translated.
