sigsauer.com PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION: LIGHTWAVETM DSP TECHNOLOGY A - Power / Range Button B - Eyecup / Diopter Focus Adjustment C - Mode Button D - Harness Attachment Point E - Battery Compartment SIG SAUER’s proprietary Lightwave DSP engine leverages HyperScan – an advanced power management technique that provides the fastest refresh rate in scan mode (4 times per second) even at distances up to a mile.
sigsauer.com SIG SAUER BALLISTIC DATA XCHANGE 2.0 (BDX 2.0) SIG SAUER’s Patent Pending BDX system takes the guesswork out of determining the proper range and ballistics solution for hitting your target with the first round. Low Energy Bluetooth combined with an embedded ballistic calculator (Applied Ballistics Ultralight) allows the user to configure up to 25, custom bullet profiles on the free BDX App and sync to your KILO.
sigsauer.com GENERAL OPERATION Your rangefinder provides 5 modes of operation: AMR, LOS, ABU, ABE/ABX and Ballistic Group Selection. When ABU is selected the user can pair the KILO with a nearby smartphone where the BDX App should already be installed. The user configures a bullet profile in the app, which is actively synced with a paired rangefinder. For example, the user downloads and installs the BDX App, selects a 0.
sigsauer.com MODES OF OPERATION - ANGLE MODIFIED RANGE (AMR) AND LINE OF SIGHT (LOS) ANGLE MODIFIED RANGE Angle modified range is the equivalent horizontal range to the target and is comparable to the “horizontal leg” of a triangle. AMR is also known as “rifleman’s rule” and uses the LOS range and angle of incline to calculate the horizontal distance the projectile travels between shooter and target. AMR is very accurate for shorter distances (i.e. < 400 yards) and archery.
sigsauer.com APPLIED BALLISTICS ULTRALIGHT (ABU) Your rangefinder has an embedded ballistics solver developed by Sig Sauer, Applied Ballistics and nVisti. By pairing your KILO with the free BDX App you can enter custom ballistics information for up to 25 bullet profiles and sync one at a time to your KILO. The active ballistic profile is now saved on your KILO, and when in ABU mode, will provide an accurate ballistic solution out to 800 yards maximum.

Rotate the eyecup / diopter ring in either direction until the display comes into sharp focus. Q: I can’t seem to range very far past trees or animals. A: Your KILO will perform differently based on changes in ambient conditions such as bright sunlight or snow, rain or fog, temperature and the reflectivity of the target being ranged.
sigsauer.com Q: When using AB External on my KILO I can no longer see the rangefinder information on the HUD in the BDX App. A: If your KILO and a Kestrel are actively paired (sending / receiving information) the BDX App cannot be connected and paired to your KILO at the same time. Q: My KILO is set to AB External but isn’t displaying holdover information. A: To display a complete ballistic solution your KILO must be actively paired with a Kestrel.
