Info

Functions include: Note: To press a key, use the ball of your thumb. This is a very fast keypad so do NOT hold the key down. Simply depress it with a clean sharp press and release. Holding it down will cause multiple reads and loading of the key. For example 99 or 999. How to get started when the unit is in the "SLEEP" mode. Touch any key to wake the unit up and go to the section on (PIN*NB) Pin Number. *** SEL (Select key) Enters/Exits the menu. Use the (U/D/R/L) arrow keys to move through the menu. *** (EDT) key (Edit key) Typically used to ACCEPT or ENTER a function. *** MODE (Mode) Allows the user to select from any of the following modes. *** V*MAN (Voice Manual mode) Releases the bird, via voice call but follows no "Game". The user touches the (OPT) key to initiate the load sequence, touches the command keys (1-6) they wish to load and then touches the (OPT) key to complete the function. The user then calls for the release of the bird. The system will simply repeat the sequence over and over or until changed. *** V*AUTO (Voice Auto, typical practice mode) Releases the bird, via voice call and follows the "Game" selected by the shooter. *** COMPET (Competition mode) Competition mode simply calls for the bird. Which station type or bird that is released, is set by the judge. (See JUDGE mode) *** JUDGE (Judge mode, Optional) This is a SPECIAL mode available from the "Club" and MAYBE used by "Clubs/Judges" to control fields during competitions. This is NOT a mandatory mode for shooting competitions. 8
*** GAME (Game selected) Allows the user to select from any of the following games. TRAP*S Trap singles (16 yard and Handicap) TRAP*D Trap doubles SKET*S Skeet Standard SKET*I Skeet International ** ("Low gun" may require mic adjustment) ** Note: If (DLY*FR) is set to (DL*RND) you will get a 0-3.0 second random delay. If set to (DL*FIX) the delay will be the user's fixed delay programmed under the (DELAY) function, see below. SKET*D Skeet doubles CUST*G Custom game SPRT*C Sporting clays 5STD*B Five stand beginner 5STD*I Five stand intermediate 5STD*P Five stand professional *** VOLUME (Volume sensitivity, Typical setting 650) NOTE: For "Skeet International" "Low gun" you may need to adjust the position of the mic and the volume. Using this function with the gun in the low position, adjust the mic sensitivity and mic position to obtain the highest setting and still release a bird. Also, if you are running the mic at levels below 600 you might consider unlocking (UNLOCK) the "Auto Mic" function for games other than Trap. Using the (U/D/L/R) arrow keys allows the user to program the sensitivity of the XT2004 to the call of the bird. Note that this should be set as HIGH as possible and still release a bird when called. This will minimize the chances of the system releasing uncalled for birds. While in this mode the mic is automatically turned on and the shooter can TEST to see if the unit will hear their voice. This testing MUST BE DONE OUTDOORS with the unit PROPERLY ATTACHED to the shooter and the gun MUST BE MOUNTED just as if you were about to fire a shot. If the unit hears your voice it will beep three times. This does NOT charge you for birds, and you may call as many times as you wish. Note that this test function only works if you are logged OFF the field. If you enter this mode while logged onto a field you can change the release level of the mic but the test function will not work. It is highly recommended that the shooter speak up allowing for a high volume setting to minimize the chances of throwing unwanted birds, especially when talking. A typical setting of 650 or greater will virtually eliminate all unwanted releases. It is recommended that you practice releasing birds at this level or higher. By practicing with the higher settings and becoming proficient at releasing the birds, you can minimize the chance of ever releasing an unwanted bird. Also, experience shows as the shooter moves through the game and gets towards the end stations they tend to trail off in the intensity of their call, so please, practice keeping your call the same throughout the game. Using a call that has a sharp starting edge, such as "PUP" 9
