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
Lift
the flap near , then pull the flap to remove the battery
door. Insert one 9-volt alkaline battery into the slot as indicated,
then close the battery door. The battery slot was designed to
only accept the battery in the correct position. Therefore, if you
are not able to close the batter door, check to ensure that the
battery has been installed correctly.
NOTE: Use only high quality alkaline batteries. Do not use
heavy duty or lithium batteries. It is recommended that the
battery be replaced at least once every 12 months.
Low Battery Indicator: If the Y (Yards) or M (Meters) indicator
blinks continuously, the battery charge is getting low and the
9-volt alkaline battery should be replaced.
ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE
Y
our PINSEEKER
®
1500 is constructed with a twist-up eyepiece
designed for comfort and to exclude extraneous light. For users
without eyeglasses, rotate the eyecup counter clockwise while
4
pulling up until it locks into the fully “up” position. The PINSEEKER
®
1500 provides extra long eye-relief. If you
wear glasses, make sure the eyecup is in the down position as this will bring your eye closer the eyepiece lens allowing
you to see a full field of view. To lower the eyecup from the full “up” position, rotate clockwise while pushing down
slightly. It is also possible to set the eyecup to positions “in between”, fully up and full down, which may suit some
individuals better.
The PINSEEKER
®
1500 is also equipped with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows one to
focus the LCD display relative to the image. Simply rotate the diopter setting until the LCD is in focus.
OPERATIONAL SUMMARY
While looking through the 7x eyepiece, depress the power 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 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 button. The crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle will disappear once the power button
has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted). Note: Once activated, the PINSEEKER
®
1500’s 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 button down again.
LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) INDICATORS
Your PINSEEKER
®
1500’s LCD incorporates illuminated indicators that advise the user unit of measure, when
the laser is actively firing, when a target has been acquired, and targeting modes. A summary of these features is
presented below:
