ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE
Your Scout™ 1000 is constructed with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows one to focus the LCD display relative to the image. For users without eyeglasses, simply rotate the eyepiece until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus to your eye. If you wear glasses, make sure the eyecup is folded in the down position as this will bring your eye closer the eyepiece lens allowing you to see a full field of view and then rotate the eyepiece until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus to your eye.
OPERATIONAL SUMMARY
While looking through the 5x eyepiece, depress the power button once to activate the in-view Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Place the aiming circle (located in the center of the field 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. The 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 LCD will remain active and display the last distance measurement for 30 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 10 seconds. To re-fire, press the button down again.
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) INDICATORS
Your Scout™ 1000 LCD incorporates illuminated indicators that advise the user unit of measure, when the laser is actively firing, when a target has been acquired, and targeting modes. A summary of these features is presented below:
