Introduction

Registering and Updating Course Data

Setting up a free account and registering your Neo+ at www.bushnell.igolf.com is not required. However, doing so will allow you to update the preloaded GPS course data, and load any new courses. Registration is free and takes only a few minutes. Completing the registration will give you access to the latest GPS data for use on your device.

1.Using the provided cable, connect one end to the mini USB port on the front of your Neo+ and attach the other end to a USB port on your computer. The display will indicate “USB Mode” and your computer will recognize it as a standard USB mass storage device (no driver is required).

2.Go to www.bushnell.igolf.com, select ‘Register Now’, and enter the requested information, clicking “Next” and following the directions until your registration is complete.

Once your Neo+ has been registered, you may update the GPS data for an existing course or download a new course to it at anytime. First make sure your Neo+ is connected to the computer and that you are logged in to your iGolf.com account. Then, simply repeat these steps to update existing courses* or download other courses to your Neo+.

1.Select ‘GPS Courses’ from the header menu, enter the name of a golf course in the search bar, and select the ‘Search’ button.

2.Select the desired course from the results list to access the course download page.

3.Select ‘Download GPS & Scorecard’ to download the selected course files to your Neo+.

*Note: If you only play a limited number of courses on a regular basis, we recommend you update individual courses (or load new courses) one at a time. A “full sync” to update all the preloaded courses may take up to half an hour (depending on your download speed and other factors).

Introduction

Battery Information

Battery Charging

This product contains an internal rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Under normal operating conditions, a new battery will last 14 -16 hours on a full charge. However, battery life may be reduced due to a variety of factors (external temperature, etc). All rechargeable batteries lose their effective charge length over time.

The internal battery can be charged by connecting the included USB cable to the device and a computer. Alternatively, the battery can be charged by connecting the USB cable to the device and using the included adapter to plug the charger into a standard 110V wall outlet. If the battery is new or has been totally drained, allow six to eight hours for a full charge.

WARNING

Keep battery cover closed at all times. Risk of explosion if battery is replaced with incorrect type.

•Do not attempt to open, disassemble or service the battery. Battery must be replaced by qualified technician.

•Do not crush, puncture or short external contacts. Do not expose to temperatures above 140o F (60o C).

•Properly recycle or dispose of battery. Do not dispose in fire or water.

Getting Started / Main Menu

Ready to start using your Neo+ ?

First, be sure the battery has a full charge. If you are using it for the first time, it should be charged for 6 hours minimum (refer to “Battery Charging” on pg. 7 for details). Next, make sure you are outdoors, in a location with a clear view of the sky overhead, to ensure good reception of GPS satellite signals. Now, you’re ready to power up and begin to use your Neo+.

Hold down the Power button until you see the “Bushnell Neo+” startup screen, then release it.

You will see the Main Menu screen, which has only two items: PLAY GOLF and OPTIONS (Fig. 1).

Using the Neo+ menu system is simple:

1.Select (highlight) a menu item using the UP/ DOWN buttons.

2.Press the OK/SHOT button to enter it.

3.Press the ESC/MENU button to return to the previous menu level.

All items in the OPTIONS menu (as listed above) will return to their original settings. Any changes you made to the distances using MAP GOLF HOLE in the PLAY menu will be replaced with the original distance data for the course (which can be useful as a quick way to start over and re-map the holes). However, any new course data you have created using the MAP COURSE>CREATE COURSE option will not be lost.

DELETE COURSE: This option erases a golf course data file from the Neo+’s internal memory. Highlight DELETE COURSE in the OPTIONS menu and press OK/ SHOT. Select the golf course from the list and press OK/SHOT. To verify you want to delete the course, select YES and press OK/SHOT.

Ce CD n’est plus inclus, ni nécessaire, car le nouveau Neo+ est livré avec des parcours de golf pré-enregistrés, prêts à l’emploi. Votre ordinateur détectera l’appareil automatiquement (aucun pilote n’est requis) lorsque vous vous connecterez au site www.bushnell.igolf.com pour créer votre compte et télécharger les dernières mises à jour des parcours.
