Then adjust the pointing direction. For this the ball needs to be hit from a
position within a 52 cm (20 in) radius from the sensor’s expected tee
position. As a rule the ball origins (blue dots) will be near the center of the
red circle if the sensor pointing direction is more or less correct.
Select the club type to use for the test (iron, driver or wedge).
Then hit a 3 or 4 shots with the ball placed each time as closely as possible
on the chosen tee position.
The ball origin for each shot is displayed as a blue dot. The most recent shot
will be a dark while earlier shots are displayed in a lighter shade.
The displayed origins should overlap. An outlier shot can be rejected (“Reject
Shot”)> Further test shots can be played if desired.
The Horizontal Offset value (the pointing direction offset) is displayed. This
value should be approximately 0 (zero).
HINT
Get this value small to reduce lateral (sideways)
ball tracking errors. Horizontal Offset of 1˚
causes 2.5 meters sideways error at 150 meter
distance; 0.2˚ offset adds only 0.5 meters error.
The pointing direction can be corrected by slight clockwise or
counterclockwise rotation of the sensor, after which the test must be
repeated to verify the Horizontal Offset.
The “Ball Origin” can be checked at any time during system operation from
the Advanced Settings menu (F10 > Sensor > Ball Origin).
