I.
Introduction
This guide covers operation of XY Golf’s Handheld Golf GPS unit and Base/Repeater
Unit. The operation of either unit is very similar. Specific functionality of the units is
defined by software, which utilizes a standard soft-key menu system to access various
parameters and functions.
NOTE:
"THIS EQUIPMENT COMPLIES WITH PART 90 OF THE FCC RULES.
ANY CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED
BY THE MANUFACTURER COULD VOID THE USER'S AUTHORITY
TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT."
II. Usage
The M-45C-01, Hand Held Unit (HHU) is designed to be used by a golfer. It relies on GPS
and predefined data to provided assistance to the golfer in the form of distance data,
shot advice, and other information.
During usage the unit ordinarily resides in a cradle attached to a golf cart or golf bag.
The golfer will typically pick up hold the unit and refer to it before making each shot and
then place it back in the cradle.
The B-45C-01, Base/Repeater Unit (BSU), is designed to operate as a fixed unit in either
of two modes. In Base Mode, it serves as the communication controller for all HHUs and
Repeaters within a specific area (typically a single golf course). It also provides
Differential GPS (DGPS) correction data to HHUs to enhance their positional accuracy.
In Repeater Mode, the B-45C-01 is used to extend the radio coverage of the BSU. This
may be needed if the size of a particular installation is unusually large, or there are
obstacles like hills or large buildings blocking radio coverage to specific areas.
A typical Base/Repeater installation utilizes an outdoor fix-mounted antenna no higher
than 30 feet above ground level. Appropriate FCC Licensing or Authorization is required
prior to station operation.
III. Operation
This section describes the operation of the units. Since the many options are enabled or
disabled via a separate database, the actual menu options available may be slightly
different than those shown here. This document will show all options that are currently
available.
