WARNING
Always inspect your equipment prior to shooting a crossbow. Always understand your target and what lies
beyond your target before taking a shot. Failure to account for your shooting environment could cause property
damage, injury, or death. You are responsible for understanding and complying with any applicable regulations
for shooting a crossbow.
This device has a protective housing which, when in place, prevents human access to laser radiation in excess
of the accessible emission limit (AEL) for Class 1 laser products. This device should not be modified or
operated without its housing or optics. Operating this device without a housing and optics, or operating this
device with a modified housing or optics that expose the laser source, may result in direct exposure to laser
radiation and the risk of permanent eye damage. Removal or modification of the diffuser in front of the laser
optic may result in the risk of permanent eye damage.
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for product warnings and other
important information.

The device mounts to a Picatinny or Weaver rail. The scope features a 62 mm (2.44 in.) eye relief. You should
mount the device in a position that gives you a clear view through the scope while your cheek is on the cheek
rest of the crossbow.
1 Place the device onto the rail.
TIP: You should make sure the lug on the bottom of the device is positioned between the grooves on the rail.
2 Using the included screws and washers , secure the mount clamp to the device.
3 Tighten the screws to a maximum torque specification of 2.5 N-m (22 lbf-in.).
4 Getting Started
Installing the Remote Trigger Cable
You can install a remote trigger cable to activate the range finder while your hand is near the crossbow trigger.
The remote trigger functions the same as the ranging button on the scope. If necessary, you can disconnect the
trigger cable from the trigger cable mount to cock your crossbow.
1 Connect the remote trigger cable to the remote trigger port.
2 Press the remote trigger cable into the port and rotate it clockwise until it locks into place.
3 Remove the adhesive backing from the trigger cable clip .
NOTE: The device includes two trigger cable clips for flat and curved mounting surfaces. You should select
the trigger cable clip that best fits your mounting surface.
4 Press the remote trigger cable clip onto the grip of your crossbow where you can comfortably activate it
while aiming.
Getting Started 5
NOTE: You should confirm the remote trigger cable is positioned so that it does not interfere with the
operation of the crossbow.
5 Slide the remote trigger cable into the trigger cable clip until it clicks.
6 Secure the cable to the crossbow using tape or cable ties.
TIP: If you have excess cable length, you can loop the cable or wrap it around the crossbow stock to tighten
the slack.
Turning the Device On or Off
1 To turn on the device, press and hold PWR.
2 To turn off the device, hold PWR for 3 sec.
Adjusting the Eyepiece
The device features an adjustable eyepiece. This allows you to focus the scope for your eyesight. You should

TIP: To obtain the nominal focus, rotate the eyepiece all the way in, and back it out one full turn.
6 Getting Started
Setup Overview
The first time you turn on your device, it walks you through using the windage and elevation adjustments on the
mount to set your first aim point. After you set the first aim point, you can add aim points for different distances
electronically. You can choose to calibrate your own aim points individually, or the scope can automatically
calibrate aim points out to 80 meters or 80 yards, based on the speed of your crossbow. You can add, delete, or
recalibrate aim points after completing the setup procedure.
If you auto-calibrate your aim points, you should validate your accuracy at 50 meters or 50 yards. It is especially
important to validate your accuracy if you enter the crossbow manufacturer's advertised speed.
Adjusting Windage and Elevation
The device mount includes a locking knob that prevents the mount from being adjusted unintentionally. You
must loosen the lock knob before making adjustments. You must tighten the lock knob before taking a shot to
prevent the mount from moving during use.
1 Using a 3.5 mm (
1
/
8
in.) hex wrench, loosen the lock knob.
2 Turn the dials to adjust windage or elevation .
3 Tighten the lock knob until it snaps over one time.
NOTE: Do not snap the lock knob more than once while locking the knob.
Getting Started 7
