INTRODUCTION

Your Tour V3 is Bushnell’s newest addition to an award winning line of golf laser rangeﬁnders speciﬁcally made for golfers. Tour

V3 features PinSeeker™ technology with JOLT™, allowing the golfer to easily and quickly “zero” in on the ﬂag without acquiring

background targets. The Tour V3 weighs a mere 6.6 ounces and made to ﬁt into the palm of your hand. Tour V3 also features

an adjustable eyepiece, 5X magniﬁcation, and is capable of providing distance from 5 to 1000 yards with incredible one yard

accuracy! Like other Bushnell laser rangeﬁnders, the Tour V3 is not dependent upon reﬂectors, and will provide distance to trees,

bunkers, and virtually any object on any golf course in the world.

HOW OUR DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WORKS

The TOUR V3 WITH PINSEEKER emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. The TOUR V3’s Advanced Digital microprocessor and ASIC chip (Application-Speciﬁc Integrated Circuit) results in instantaneous and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangeﬁnder, to the target, and back.

RANGING ACCURACY

The ranging accuracy of the TOUR V3 is plus or minus one yard/meter under most circumstances. The maximum range of the instrument depends on the reﬂectivity of the target. The maximum distance for most objects is 700 yards/640 meters while for highly reﬂective objects the maximum is 1000 yards/914 meters. Note: You will get both longer and shorter

maximum distances depending on the reﬂective properties of the particular target and the environmental conditions at the time the distance of an object is being measured.

The color, surface ﬁnish, size and shape of the target all affect reﬂectivity and range. The brighter the color, the longer the range. Red 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. Shooting to a target at a 90 degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the ﬂight path of the emitted energy pulses) provides good range while a steep angle on the other hand, provides limited ranging. In addition, lighting conditions (e.g. the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit. The less light (e.g. overcast skies) the farther the unit’s maximum range will be. Conversely, very sunny days will decrease the unit’s maximum range.

GETTING STARTED

INSERTING THE BATTERY

Remove the battery cap by lifting the battery cap tab and then rotating counter clockwise. Insert a CR-2 3-volt lithium battery into the compartment positive end ﬁrst, then replace the battery cap.

NOTE: It is recommended that the battery be replaced at least once every 12 months.

Low Battery Indicator: If “

“ is displayed within the in-view readout, this means “low battery” or battery charge is

getting low and the 3-volt lithium battery should be replaced.

OPEN

ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE

Your TOUR V3 is constructed with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows one to focus the LCD display relative to the image. Simply rotate the eyepiece until the reticle and object distanced to are both in focus to your eye.

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY

While looking through the 5x eyepiece, depress the POWER/FIRE button once to activate the in-view Liquid Crystal Display (LCD). Place the aiming circle (located in the center of the ﬁeld of view) upon a target at least 5 yards away, depress and hold the POWER/FIRE button down until the range reading is displayed near the bottom of the in-view display. Crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is being transmitted. Once a range has been acquired, you can release the POWER/FIRE button. The crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle will disappear once the POWER/FIRE button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted). Note: Once activated, the LCD will remain active and display the last distance measurement for 30 seconds. You can depress the power button again at any time to distance to a new target. 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 POWER/FIRE button down again.

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) INDICATORS

Your TOUR V3 ’s LCD incorporates illuminated icons or symbols that indicate the selected unit of measure, when the laser is actively ﬁring, when a target has been acquired, and targeting modes. A summary of these features follows:

MODE and UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS

The TOUR V3 can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. The unit of measure indicators are located in the lower right portion of the LCD. To select between yards and meters, press and hold the POWER/FIRE button. The display will begin to cycle through the setup options: Yards w/JOLT, Yards, Meters w/JOLT, Meters (for details on the JOLT feature, see “About JOLT”). When the units and JOLT mode you want to use are displayed, release the POWER/FIRE button to select it. 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 TOUR V3 will return to the 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/FIRE button. The crosshairs surrounding the circle will disappear once the POWER/FIRE button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted).

PinSeeker (LCD Indicator of the ﬂag without inadvertently getting distances to background targets (i.e. trees) that have stronger signal strength.

Press the POWER/FIRE button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle reticle onto the ﬂag that you want distance to. Then, press and hold the POWER/ FIRE 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 indicator informing the user that distance to the ﬂag (i.e. 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, a circle will not surround the ﬂag indicator.

TIP: While pressing the POWER/FIRE 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.

) Ever have trouble getting distance to the ﬂag? This advanced mode allows easy acquisition

About JOLT

The new JOLT feature allows you to enable (at your option-see “Unit of Measure Options”) a vibration signal (similar to setting a cell phone to “vibrate”) that will be felt when the Pinseeker technology indicates the ﬂag has been detected and the distance to it is displayed in the LCD.

Tour V3 - Slope Edition (LCD Indicator - ° models features a built-in accelerometer-based inclinometer that digitally displays the exact slope angle from -20 to +20 degrees of elevation and is +/- 1.0 degree accurate. The Slope +/-™ Edition models will automatically compute an angle compensated range based upon distance and slope angle determined by the laser rangeﬁnder and built-in inclinometer. This data is then combined with internal algorithmic formulas dealing with average club use and ball trajectories. The angle compensated range provides direction on how to play the shot (i.e. add distance if an incline, subtract distance if a decline).

How Slope™ Works

Press the POWER/FIRE button to obtain distance to the ﬂag or other objects. Once the range is acquired, release the POWER/FIRE button. Once you have released the power button, a degree of angle and compensated range will be displayed beneath the standard distance as seen below.

In the example on the right, the true distance is 162 yards, slope is +4 degrees, and the compensated range is 173 yards. The “

playing as 162 yards, “play-as” 173 yards.

) This advanced and patented technology found on SLOPE EDITION

” symbol means “Play-As”, so instead of

The Advantage of Slope Edition

The distance to ﬂag A in the drawing below is 162 yards. It is also 162 yards to ﬂag B although it is on a slope. However, if you were to play this hole as 162 yards, the ball (X) would fall short of the hole/ﬂag because you did not take slope into account.

162 YARDS

4°

162 YARDS

Standard with Automatic SCAN: To use the Automatic SCAN feature, simply hold down on the POWER/ FIRE button for approximately 3 seconds and SCAN the rangeﬁnder from object to object while leaving the POWER/ FIRE button depressed. Automatic SCAN will allow the range and display to be continuously updated as multiple objects are targeted.

OPTICAL DESIGN

Magniﬁcation and Coatings

The TOUR V3 features 5x magniﬁcation and Multi-Coated optics. 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 spots that appear in the optical system. These are 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.

TRIPOD MOUNT

Molded into the bottom of your TOUR V3 is a threaded tripod mount that will allow you to attach to the following Bushnell Golf Accessories: Golf Cart Mount: Attaches the rangeﬁnder to your golf cart for easy access. Quick release clamp attaches to a golf cart and can be easily removed afterwards.

INTRODUCTION

Le TOUR V3 est la nouvelle addition de Bushnell à sa ligne de télémètres à laser spécialement conçus pour les golfeurs. Le TOUR V3 met en vedette la technologie PINSEEKER™ avec JOLT™ qui permet aux golfeurs de cibler rapidement et facilement le drapeau, et non pas les objets en arrière-plan. Conçu pour tenir dans la paume de la main, le TOUR V3 ne pèse que 6,6 oz (187 g). Il met aussi en vedette un oculaire ajustable, un grossissement 5 x et est capable d’offrir une portée de 5 à 1000 yards (5 à 914 mètres) avec une précision incroyable de 1 yard (1 mètre)! Différent des autres télémètres au laser Bushnell, le TOUR V3 ne dépend pas des réﬂecteurs et offre une distance à partir des arbres, des abris en fait de n’importe quel objet sur le parcours, sur n’importe quel terrain de golf au monde.

VOICI COMMENT NOTRE TECHNOGÉNIE NUMÉRIQUE FONCTIONNE

Le TOUR V3 avec PINSEEKER émet des impulsions d’énergie infrarouge invisibles et sans risque pour les yeux. Son microprocesseur numérique avancé et la puce CIAS (Circuits intégrés à application spéciﬁque) du TOUR V3 avec

PINSEEKER produisent chaque fois des relevés de distances précises et instantanées. La technogénie numérique sophistiquée calcule instantanément les distances en mesurant le temps requis par le parcours aller-retour de chaque impulsion du télémètre à la cible.

PRÉCISION DE L’ÉVALUATION DES DISTANCES

La précision de l’évaluation des distances du TOUR V3 est de +/- 1 yard/mètre dans la pluspart des cas. La distance maximale du télémètre dépend de la réﬂectivité de la cible. La distance maximale pour la majorité des objets est de 700 yards/640 mètres alors que le maximum pour les objets à haute réﬂectivité est de 1000 yards/914 mètres. Note: Vous obtiendrez les distances maximales et minimales selon les propriétés réﬂéchissantes d’une cible particulière et les conditions environnementales au moment de la mesure de la distance d’une cible.

La couleur, le ﬁni de la surface, la dimension et la forme de la cible affectent la réﬂectivité et la plage de mesure. Plus la couleur est vive, plus la plage est longue. Par exemple, le rouge a une grande reﬂectivité et permet une plus grande distance que le noir, la couleur ayant le moins de réﬂectivité. Un ﬁni brillant permet une plage plus longue qu’un ﬁni mât. L’évaluation de la distance d’une cible de petite taille est plus difﬁcile que celle d’une grande taille. L’angle de la cible a également un effet. Viser une cible avec un angle de 90 degrés (alors que la surface de la cible est perpendiculaire à la trajectoire émise par les amplitudes d’impulsion) offre une distance maximale tandis qu’une pente raide offre une distance limitée. De plus, les conditions d’éclairage (p. ex. le niveau d’ensoleillement) affectera les capacités de distance de l’appareil. Moins d’ensoleillement (par ex.: journée nuageuse) permet de maximiser l’évaluation de la distance de l’appareil. De manière générale, les journées très ensoleillées diminuent l’évaluation de la distance maximale de l’appareil.

MISE EN PLACE DE LA PILE

Enlevez le cache de la pile en soulevant l’ergot du couvercle puis en le tournant dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d’une montre. Insérez une pile au lithium de CR-2 de 3 volts dans le compartiment en introduisant d’abord la borne positive, puis refermez le cache.

REMARQUE: Il est recommandé de remplacer la pile au moins une fois par an.

Indicateur de batterie faible: Si “ “est afﬁché lors de l’afﬁchage, ceci indique que la charge de la pile est faible et qu’elle doit être remplacée.

RÉGLAGE DE L’OCULAIRE

Votre TOUR V3 est muni d’un oculaire de ajustable (réglage dioptrique +/- 2) qui permet d’effectuer la mise au point de l’afﬁcheir ACL par rapport à l’image. Tournez simplement l’oculaire jusqu’à ce que la réticule et l’objet à distance soit allignée à votre œil.

MODE D’EMPLOI EN BREF

Tout en regardant dans l’oculaire de grossissement 5 x, appuyez une fois sur le bouton POWER/FIRE aﬁn d’activer l’afﬁcheur à cristaux liquides (ACL). Positionnez le cercle de visée (situé au centre du champ de vision) sur une cible à une distance minimal de 5 verges (4,6 m), appuyez sur le bouton POWER/FIRE et maintenez enfoncé jusqu’à ce que la lecture de la distance soit afﬁchée près du bas de l’afﬁcheur intégré. Les réticules à proximité du cercle de visée indiquent que le laser est en cours de transmission. Une fois qu’une distance a été acquise, vous pouvez relâchez le bouton. Les réticules entourant le cercle de visée disparaitront lorsque le bouton POWER/FIRE aura été relâché (ce qui veut dire que le laser n’est plus en cours de transmission). Note: Une fois activé, l’écran ACL demeure actif et afﬁche le dernier relevé de distance pendant 30 secondes. Vous n’avez qu’à enfoncer de nouveau le bouton POWER/FIRE aﬁn de viser une autre cible. Comme avec tout dispositif laser, il est déconseiller d’observer longuement et directement les émissions avec des lentilles grossissante, pendant une période prolongée. La durée maximale pendant laquelle le rayonnement laser est transmis est de 10 secondes. Pour transmettre le laser à nouveau, appuyez sur le bouton encore une fois.

INDICATEURS DE L’AFFICHEUR À CRISTAUX LIQUIDES (ACL)

L’écran ACL de votre TOUR V3 est doté d’icônes et de symboles lumineux indiquant l’unité de mesure sélectionnée, l’émission effective du rayonnement laser, l’acquisition de la distance de la cible et les différents modes de ciblage. Voir le résumé des caractéristiques ci-dessous:

OPTIONS MODE et UNITÉS DE MESURE

Le TOUR V3 peut mesurer les distances en yards ou en mètres. Les indicateurs d’unités de mesure se situent dans la portion inférieure droite de l’afﬁcheur ACL. Pour sélectionner les yards ou les mètres, appuyez et maintenez enfoncé le bouton POWER/FIRE. L’écran afﬁchera successivement les différentes options : yards avec JOLT, yards, mètres avec JOLT, mètres (pour plus de détails sur l’option JOLT, voir la section « À propos de JOLT »). Si vous passez de yards à mètres, l’indicateur M (pour mètres) s’illuminera tandis que le Y (pour yards) s’éteindra. Si vous de mètres à yards, c’est l’inverse qui se produit. Le TOUR V3 revient au dernier réglage utilisé chaque fois qu’il est remis en marche.

LASER ACTIF

Les réticules à proximité du cercle de visée indiquent que le laser est en cours de transmission. Une fois qu’une distance a été acquise, vous pouvez relâchez le bouton. Les réticules entourant le cercle de visée disparaissent une fois que le bouton POWER/FIRE a été relâché (c’est-à-dire que le rayonnement laser n’est plus en cours).

PinSeeker (indicateur d’afﬁchage perfectionné permet une acquisition facile jusqu’au drapeau sans obtenir par erreur la distance d’autres cibles d’arrièreplan (tels que les arbres) qui ont un signal plus fort.

Appuyez sur le bouton POWER/FIRE pour allumer l’unité. Ensuite, aligner les réticules du cercle de visée sur le drapeau dont vous voulez connaître la distance. Puis pressez et maintenanez le bouton POWER/FIRE puis déplacez doucement le laser jusqu’au drapeau ou l’objet désiré jusqu’à ce que le cercle entoure l’indicateur du drapeau. Si le rayonnement laser reconnait plus d’un objet (p. ex. le drapeau et les arbres en arrière-plan) la distance du drapeau sera afﬁchée et un cercle entourera l’indicateur PinSeeker, informant l’utilisateur que la distance du drapeau est afﬁchée sur l’afﬁcheur ACL (comme ci-dessous). Parfois, le rayonnement laser ne voit qu’un seul objet sur sa trajectoire. Las distance est alors afﬁchée, mais comme plusieurs objets n’ont pas été détectés, l’indicateur du drapeau n’est pas entouré d’un cercle. CONSEIL: Tout en appuyant sur le bouton POWER/FIRE, vous pouvez déplacer l’instrument lentement d’un objet à un autre et forcer ainsi le rayonnement laser à toucher plusieurs objets pour vériﬁer que la seule distance des objets les plus proches reconnus par le rayonnement est afﬁchée. Une fois le dispositif fermé, l’instrument revient par défaut au dernier mode utilisé.
