UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS
The Scout™ 1000 can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. The unit of measure indicators are located in the lower right portion of the LCD. To select between yards and meters, press and release the POWER button to turn on the unit (on top of the unit), look through the eyepiece, depress the “MODE” button (left side of the unit) and hold it down for approximately 5 seconds. The word “SETUP” will appear at the top if the LCD display and the current unit of measure, “Y” for yards or “M” for Meters will flash in the LCD and the SETUP icon will still be displayed. Pressing the MODE button will toggle the unit of measure.
When the desired unit of measure is displayed, press the POWER button to accept the unit of measure and to return to the normal operating menu. The Scout™ 1000 will return to the last unit of measure setting used each time the unit is turned on.

SELECTIVE TARGETING™ MODES
The Scout™ 1000 was especially designed with hunters in mind. The selective targeting modes allow you to adjust the performance parameters of the unit to suit your specific situation and environment.

The different targeting modes available and mode indicators are listed below:
Standard with Automatic SCAN (LCD Indicator – none) This setting allows most targets to be distanced up to 1000 yards. Used for moderately reflective targets that are typical of most distancing situations. The minimum distance in the standard mode is 5 yards. To use the Automatic SCAN feature, simply hold down on the POWER button for approximately 3 seconds and move the rangefinder from object to object while leaving the POWER button depressed. Automatic SCAN will allow the range to be continuously updated as multiple objects are targeted.
BullsEye™ (LCD Indicator - ) This advanced mode allows easy acquisition of small targets and game without inadvertently getting distances to background targets that have stronger signal strength. When more than one object has been acquired, distance of the closer object will be displayed and a crosshair will surround the BullsEye™ indicator informing the user that distance to the
