Radar Speed Gun Manual

Radar Speed Gun Manua= l

Congratulations on the purchase of your Radar Gun. The Radar Gun is a precision speed radar instrument designed to provide many years of enjoyment. These instructions = will help you achieve optimum performance by explaining the adjustments and feat= ures as well as how to care for this precise speed measuring instrument. To ensu= re optimal performance and longevity, please read these instructions before using your Radar Gun.

INTRODUCTION

Your Radar Gun uses digital technology to provide instantaneous speed measuremen= ts to +/- One-Mile per Hour (MPH) accuracy. The Radar Gun is a simple, point a= nd shoot radar gun for all kinds of sports enthusiasts. The Radar Gun measures= the speed of a baseball at 10-110 MPH from 90 feet away from the ball, and the speed of a car from 10-200 MPH at 1,500 feet away.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

Your Radar Gun operates on two C alkaline batteries. To install, remove the batt= ery cover by rotating the battery cap counterclockwise. Insert both batteries positive end first and replace cap by depressing and rotating clockwise.

HOW TO USE

1. Turn the Radar Gun “ON” by pressing the button underneath the L= CD display.

2. Aim the Radar Gun at the target and depress the TRIGGER. As a quick referen= ce to accuracy, remember to keep your targets direction of travel in a direct = line with you and not perpendicular to you.

3. Turn the Radar Gun “OFF” by pressing the button underneath the = LCD Display for 3 seconds or until display shuts off.

NOTE: The Radar Gun contains an automatic battery saving shut-off feature. After 10 minutes of non-use, the Radar Gun will automatically shut off. <= /span>

If a battery symbol appears on the lower right hand corner of the display, the battery voltage is beginning to deteriorate meaning new batteries should be inserted. Remove batteries if storing long-term.

TARGET SPEED ACQUISITION

A target can be anything that is moving faster than 10 M.P.H. To acquire the speed of a target, with the Radar Gun powered on, aim the Radar Gun at the target and depress the TRIGGER. An icon will appear in the upper right corn= er of the LCD display. This indicates the Doppler Radar is functioning. The radar will continue to be active searching for speed un= til the trigger is released. Upon release of the trigger, the fastest speed captured within that series will automatically be displayed. The speed of t= he target will appear on the LCD display in MPH.

There are certain mathematical properties of Doppler Radar that affect the accuracy of your Radar Gun. Please read COSINE AFFECT ON TA= RGET VELOCITY below. As a quick reference to accuracy, remember to keep your tar= gets direction of travel in a direct line with you, and not perpendicular. =

COSINE EFFECT ON TARGET VELOCITY

The Radar Gun will measure the relative speed of a target as it approaches the Radar Gun. If the target is in a direct line (collision course) with the Ve= locity the measured speed will be exact. As the angle of incidence increases, if y= ou move either right or left of this direct line, the accuracy will decrease. = The measured speed will decrease as you move off this centerline. This phenomen= on is called the Cosine Effect. It is called this because the measured speed is directly related to the cosine of the angle between the Radar Gun and the target’s direction of travel.

INFORMATION TO THE USER

Changes or modifications to the Radar Gun, instruction manual or printed materials,= not expressly approved by APEXS, Inc. for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Cl= ass B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. <= /p>

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses a= nd can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accord= ance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communicatio= ns. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a partic= ular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off = and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or mor= e of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to wh= ich the receiver is connected.
