Step 4: Set-up the Receiver Unit

(LCD Display)

Insert 4x AA batteries into the Receiver, or connect its supplied AC adapter. The Receiver’s

display initializes and reads “Searching for PC” (press the SEARCH button on the back of the

unit if this does not appear). Attach the easel stand to the Receiver and place it near your PC

so you can see its display while you complete the setup.

Step 1: Install the Software

Insert the CD, click the “Golf FXi Setup Wizard” button and follow the on-screen directions

to install the Golf FXi software on your PC (Windows 2000 or later, with an “always on”

internet connection).

Step 2: Connect the Transmitter

Connect the USB Transmitter to your PC’s USB port.

Step 5: Transmit Weather Data

from the PC to the Receiver

Click “Send to Receiver” on the Golf FXi program window (5a). The red LED on the USB

Transmitter will glow, then blink while data is transferred from the PC software to the

Receiver. The Receiver will indicate “PC FOUND-PLS WAIT 5 MINS.” When the Transmitter’s

light stops ashing, the receiver’s display should match the weather data shown on the PC.

Use the +/- buttons to change locations on the receiver.

Keep the Golf FXi application running in the background and your PC powered on

and connected to the Internet so the Receiver can provide you with the latest up-to-date

forecast information.

Step 3: Start the Golf FXi Application,

Set Locations and Units

your cursor to the top (left) box, then click the orange “Edit Location” box when it appears

(3a). Set your home course by selecting from the three drop down lists, then click “Save”

to store (3b). Follow the same process to set up any or all of the remaining four location

boxes for other courses. Next, click the “Settings” button and set your preferences for

temperature, wind speed units and time format, then click “Save” (3c). In the main
