User manual BUSHNELL VLRII 203132/203133

[. . . ] White is highly reflective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the color black, which is the least reflective color. A shiny finish provides more range than a dull one. A small target is more difficult to range than a larger target. The angle to the target also has an effect. [. . . ] As with any laser device, it is not recommended to directly view the emissions for long periods of time with magnified lenses. The maximum time the laser is transmitted (fired) is 10 seconds. To re-fire, press the button down again. OPTICAL DESIGN Magnification and Coatings The VLR II features 5x magnification and fully coated optics. A liquid crystal display (LCD) is mounted within the optical system and when activated, displays a reticle for targeting and a yards indicator. Inherent in the manufacturing process are small black spots that appear in the optical system. These are 8 VLRII_1LIM. indd 8 7/11/08 9:00:28 AM a natural characteristic of the LCD and cannot be fully eliminated in the manufacturing process. They do not affect the distancing performance of the unit. LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) INDICATORS Your VLR II LCD incorporates illuminated indicators that advise the user unit of measure, when the laser is actively firing, when a target has been acquired, BullsEyeTM targeting mode, and Bow mode. A summary of these features is presented below: UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS The VLR II provides distance in yards (indicated within the LCD to right of the main distance readout as Y). 9 VLRII_1LIM. indd 9 7/11/08 9:00:28 AM 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). BullsEyeTM (LCD Indicator - ) The VLR II was especially designed with hunters in mind and will always function with BullsEye mode on. 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 BullsEyeTM indicator informing the 10 user that distance to the closer object is being displayed in the LCD.

Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the deer 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 (Figure 1). 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. [. . . ] Accuracy: +/- 1 yard Magnification: 5x Built-In Inclinometer VLR II Technology provides bow-hunters ANGLE RANGE COMPENSATION from 5-99 yards Power Source: 3- volt lithium battery included FOV: 320 ft. @ 1000 yards Total Eye Relief: 21mm Exit Pupil: 4 mm Water resistant BullsEye Mode 5-yard minimum, 999 yards to a reflective target, 300 yards to a deer, 600 yards to a tree 16 VLRII_1LIM. indd 16 7/11/08 9:00:30 AM CLEANING Gently blow away any dust or debris on the lenses (or use a soft lens brush). To remove dirt or fingerprints, clean with a soft cotton cloth, rubbing in a circular motion. Use of a coarse cloth or unnecessary rubbing may scratch the lens surface and eventually cause permanent damage. [. . . ]
