the eyepiece) and hold it down for approximately 5 seconds. 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 ELITE
last unit of measure setting used each time the unit is turned on.
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).
SELECTIVE TARGETING MODES
The ELITE
®
1500 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. To move from one mode to
another, press the POWER button once to turn on the unit. While looking through the eyepiece, press the MODE
button and quickly release. 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 1500
yards. Used for moderately reflective targets that are typical of most distancing situations. The minimum distance in the
standardmodeis3yards.TousetheAutomaticSCANfeature,simplyholddownonthePOWERbuttonforapproximately
3 seconds. 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 closer object is being displayed in the LCD.

Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle onto the object (i.e.
deer) that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the deer
®
1500 will return to the
until crosshairs surround the BullsEye indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. deer and
background trees), distance of the closer object (i.e. deer) will be displayed and crosshairs will surround the BullsEye
indicator informing the user that distance to the closer object is being displayed in the LCD (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, crosshairs will not surround the BullsEye 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 Standard with Automatic SCAN mode.
Brush™ (LCD Indicator -
branches to be ignored so that distance only to background objects are displayed. When more
than one object has been acquired, distance of the further object will be displayed and a circle
will surround the Brush™ indicator informing the user that distance of the farthest object is
being displayed in the LCD.
Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle
onto the object that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move
the laser slowly over the object until a circle surrounds the Brush indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than
one object (i.e. close-up tree branch and a deer in the background), distance of the further object (i.e. deer) will be
displayed and a circle will surround the brush indicator informing the user that distance to the farther object is being
displayed in the LCD (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, the circle will not
surround the Brush indicator.
