PinSeeker (LCD Indicator -
of the flag without inadvertently getting distances to background targets (i.e. trees) that have stronger
signal strength.
Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, 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
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, 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.
OPTICAL DESIGN
Magnification and Coatings
The MEDALIST™ provides 4x magnification resulting in up-close and personal details of targeted objects
on the course. Optics are Multi-Coated allowing maximum light transmission for optimum brightness,
superb resolution and contrast for a clear vivid image even in low light conditions such as dusk or dawn.
A liquid crystal display (LCD) is mounted within the optical system and when activated, displays a reticle
for targeting, yards / meters, and Mode indicators. Inherent in the manufacturing process are small black
