–
The Smart Coach radar makes a measurement by
sending out very low power radio waves and looking for
them to bounce off a moving object. These radio waves
are focused in a small cone shaped like a flashlight beam
which comes out of the raised square on the back of the
Smart Coach radar(the radar lens).
–
Hold the Smart Coach radar straight up and down
vertically like a camera phone with the radar beam
pointing in-line with the path of the ball.
–
If you tilt the Smart Coach radar down slightly, the beam
may end up pointing into the ground and missing the ball.
–
Do not block the radar lens.

–
All Doppler speed radar technology measures objects moving in-line with the radar beam, not
perpendicular. To get the most accurate readings, make sure the path of motion is within the narrow radar
beam cone (about the shape of a focused flashlight beam). Tilting the Smart Coach radar too far up or
down may also cause the beam to miss the moving object.

–
The Smart Coach radar will turn itself on and
continue measuring ball speeds as long as you
HOLD the GRAY button down.
–
When the Smart Coach radar picks up a ball in flight,
it will display the speed. Release the GRAY button
and the speed will display for several seconds. If no
ball was measured, the display will show “- - -.”
–
Do not worry about clearing the display before
making a new measurement. Once you begin
holding the GRAY button down for a new
measurement, the display will be cleared.
