ACTIVE LASER
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 circle will disappear once the power button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted).
PinSeeker™
Ever have trouble getting distance to the flag? This advanced mode allows easy acquisition of the flag without inadvertently getting distances to background targets (i.e. trees) that have stronger signal strength.
For ease of use, the device will always be in PinSeeker™ Mode.
To use, align the aiming circle reticle onto the flag that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the flag or desired object until a circle surrounds the flag indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. flag and background trees), distance of the flag will be displayed and a circle will surround the PinSeeker™ indicator informing the user that distance to the flag (i.e. closer object) is being displayed in the VDT™ (as seen below). There may be times when only the laser beam only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but because more than one object was not acquired, a circle will not surround the flag indicator.
Tip: While pressing the POWER button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the objects recognized by the laser. Once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back to the last mode used.
MENU SETUP
DISPLAY BRIGHTNESS
Vivid Display Technology™ dramatically improves contrast, clarity and light transmission while increasing brightness of the digital readout, making distance readings legible in low light environments. There are four intensity settings to choose from and this is the first setting within the SETUP menu. Press the MODE button for 3 seconds to get into the SETUP menu. The existing brightness setting will be flashing (i.e. BRT1, BRT2, BRT3, or BRT4), pressing the MODE button will toggle between the four brightness settings. “BRT1” is the lowest intensity while “BRT4 ” is the brightest. Simply press the MODE button until the desired brightness setting is displayed and select by pressing and releasing the POWER button.
UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS
The Tour® Z6™ can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. The unit of measure indicators are located in the lower right portion of the VDT™. There are two measuring settings to choose from and this is the second setting within the SETUP menu. Look through the eyepiece, depress the “MODE” button (“B” Button on side of device) and hold it down for approximately 3 seconds to get into the SETUP menu. Depressing the MODE button will toggle through the brightness settings. If you are changing from yards to meters, a change in unit of measure will be indicated by the illumination of the M for meter indicator while the Y for Yard indicator is turned off. If you are changing from meters to yards, the opposite will occur. The Tour® Z6™ will return to the last unit of measure setting used each time the unit is turned on.
