*
PRESS SET
TO CONTINUE
* Note: numbers taken from Digitek Quad Shield RG6
The calibration factor will automatically be set for this unit and if required this value can be loaded into
ShotTrack for Windows for future use with this cable. Generally the cable produced now is of so good quality
that this is only needed to be done once for each new cable type used.
If a 305 Meter reel is not available
then the same procedure should be used until the cable return time is
displayed. This value should be written down and 25 meters of cable cut from the reel. The new return time
written down and the OFF Button pressed to get out of the function.
Then this formula should be used to calculate a calibration factor which must be entered into the unit using
ShotTrack for Windows.
Calibration factor = First reading – Second reading / 25
