Setup

Charging the Battery

The ACPOTEL PF2L features a built-in rechargeable lithium battery.

Operating Instructions

Power On/Off

To power on the device, press the Power/Measurement button. The display will activate. The device will automatically power off after a period of inactivity to conserve battery.

Measurement Modes

The PF2L offers several measurement modes for various applications. Press the Mode button to cycle through the available modes.

Standard Measurement / Scan Mode

Press and hold the Power/Measurement button to activate continuous scanning. This allows you to scan across multiple targets and get real-time distance readings. Release the button to lock onto a specific target.

Flag-Lock with Vibration

In this mode, the rangefinder will prioritize the closest target, typically the flagstick, and vibrate to confirm a successful lock. This helps to avoid ranging background objects.

Slope Compensation Mode

The slope compensation feature calculates the "plays like" distance, adjusting for uphill or downhill terrain.

The PF2L features a physical slope switch. Slide the switch to enable or disable slope compensation as required by golf rules or personal preference.

AH Mode (Auto High Mode) for Disc Golf

This mode is specifically designed for disc golf, providing both distance and vertical height measurements in feet.

Unit Switching (Feet/Yard/Meter)

The ACPOTEL PF2L supports measurements in feet, yards, and meters. To switch between units, short press the 'M' (Mode) button while the device is on. The external LCD screen will display the current unit.

External LCD Screen

The external LCD screen provides clear, real-time display of measurements, including distance, angle, and unit of measure, without needing to look through the eyepiece.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Use the provided lens cleaning cloth to gently wipe the lenses. For stubborn dirt, a small amount of lens cleaning solution can be applied to the cloth, not directly to the lens.

Clean the body of the rangefinder with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Storage

When not in use, store the rangefinder in its protective case in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

Ensure the device is fully charged before long-term storage to maintain battery health.

Troubleshooting

Device does not power on:

• Ensure the battery is charged. Connect to a power source and try again.
• If the device has been stored for a long time, it may require a longer charging period.

Inaccurate measurements:

• Ensure the target is within the measuring range (9 feet to 1200 feet / 3-1000 yards).
• Check for obstructions between the rangefinder and the target.
• Ensure the lens is clean.
• Environmental factors like fog or heavy rain can affect accuracy.

Cannot switch units (feet/yard/meter):

• Ensure the device is powered on.
• Press the 'M' (Mode) button firmly and briefly.

No vibration on Flag-Lock:

• Ensure you are in Flag-Lock mode.
• The target may not be clearly isolated from the background. Try re-aiming.
