Playing Golf With Your SkyCaddie
Now is the moment you’ve been waiting for — taking the SkyCaddie to the course.
The SkyCaddie is the easiest and most powerful rangefinder to use on thousands
of courses worldwide. Once it acquires GPS satellite signals and you choose the
course you want to play it will be the most trusted caddie you have ever had. It will
give you all the important information on every shot on every hole.
2.1 acquiring Signals
While standing outside prior to play, power on the SkyCaddie. Select “Start” by
pressing the Left Soft Key. Press the soft key to navigate the initial start up screens
until the Satellite Searching Screen is displayed.
You must power up the SkyCaddie 5-10 minutes prior to play to acquire GPS
satellite signals and reach optimal performance.
While searching for satellite signals, the
SkyCaddie displays animated graphics indicat-
ing when satellite signals are received. The
SkyCaddie will display “Searching”, “Acquiring”
and “Ready” as it acquires satellite signals (Fig.
4). Once the appropriate GPS fix is acquired, the
SkyCaddie will automatically advance to the next
screen. (You may manually advance to the next
screen while the GPS continues to search for
signals by selecting “OK” or “Demo”).
noTE: You must be outdoors with an unob-
structed view of the sky for the SkyCaddie to
receive GPS satellite signals.
