HOW OUR DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WORKS The Scout™1000 ARC™ emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. The Scout ™ 1000‘s Advanced Digital microprocessor and ASIC chip (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) results in instantaneous and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangefinder, to the target, and back. RANGING ACCURACY The ranging accuracy of the Scout™100

GETTING STARTED INSERTING THE BATTERY Remove the battery cap with a coin by rotating the cap counter clockwise and insert a 3-volt lithium battery into the compartment positive end first, then replace the battery cap. NOTE: It is recommended that the battery be replaced at least once every 12 months. Low Battery Indicator: If the “ ” is displayed within the in-view readout, this means “low battery” or battery charge is getting low and the 3-volt lithium battery should be replaced. OPEN

ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE Your Scout™ 1000 is constructed with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows one to focus the LCD display relative to the image. For users without eyeglasses, simply rotate the eyepiece until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus to your eye. If you wear glasses, make sure the eyecup is folded in the down position as this will bring your eye closer the eyepiece lens allowing you to see a full field of view and then rotate the eyepiece

UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS The Scout™ 1000 can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. The unit of measure indicators are located in the lower right portion of the LCD. To select between yards and meters, press and release the POWER button to turn on the unit (on top of the unit), look through the eyepiece, depress the “MODE” button (left side of the unit) and hold it down for approximately 5 seconds. The word “SETUP” will appear at the top if the LCD display and the current unit of

SELECTIVE TARGETING™ MODES The Scout™ 1000 was especially designed with hunters in mind. The selective targeting modes allow you to adjust the performance parameters of the unit to suit your specific situation and environment. To move from one mode to another, press the POWER button once to turn on the unit. While looking through the eyepiece, press the MODE button and quickly release. The different targeting modes available and mode indicators are listed below: Standard with Automatic SC

Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle onto the object (i.e. deer) that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the deer until crosshairs surround the BullsEye indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one object (i.e. deer and background trees), distance of the closer object (i.e. deer) will be displayed and crosshairs will surround the BullsEye indicator informing the user that d

TIP: While pressing the POWER button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the objects recognized by the laser. Brush™ (LCD Indicator - ) This advanced mode allows objects such as brush and tree branches to be ignored so that distance only to background objects are displayed. When more than one object has been acquired, distance of the further object will be displa

Once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back to the last targeting mode used. OPTICAL DESIGN Magnification and Coatings The Scout™1000 ARC™ features 5x magnification and Multi-Coated optics. A liquid crystal display (LCD) is mounted within the optical system and when activated, displays a reticle for targeting, yards / meters, and Mode indicators. Inherent in the manufacturing process are small black spots that appear in the optical system. These are a natural characteri

Scout 1000™ with ARC™ (Angle Range Compensation): In addition to all of the features described above, the Scout™ 1000 ARC™ is an advanced premium laser rangefinder featuring a built-in accelerometer-based inclinometer that digitally displays the exact angle from -60 to +60 degrees of elevation and is +/- 1.0 degree accurate. ® The Bushnell Scout™1000 with ARC™ solves a problem hunters have been faced with for years. The problem: Bow and rifle hunters have struggled with extreme uphill and

Regular Mode ( ): This mode does not provide any degree of elevation or compensated distance, but instead, line of sight distance only. MENU SETUP – SELECTION of BOW, RIFLE, REGULAR MODES and UNIT OF MEASURE There are two ARC (Angle Range Compensation) modes and one REGULAR mode. The two ARC modes are BOW mode and RIFLE mode. To select between these modes, first turn the unit “ON” by pressing and releasing the POWER button. Next, press and hold the MODE button for five seconds. The “SETUP” di

BOW MODE EXAMPLE Line of sight is 32 yards, angle is -44 degrees, and the Angle Range Compensated distance is 23 yards. The “ ” means “play” or “shoot as,” so instead of shooting as 32 yards, shoot as 23 yards. If you were to shoot as if 32 yards, you would shoot over the top of the deer because of the severe angle. If in BOW mode, the line of sight distance will display in the primary numeric display and the inclination and horizontal distance

The sighting pin on a bow resides several inches above the mechanical axis of the arrow. For example, when one is aiming 23 degrees up an incline, the arrow is at a different angle. RIFLE MODE EXAMPLE Line of sight is 376 yards, angle is -33 degrees, and the bullet-drop/holdover is 28 inches. ARC not only takes into account ballistic data based off your caliber and load from distances of 100-800 yards, but also compensates for any uphill and downhill angles which also affect bullet-drop.
