5. Environment – From this screen you can adjust your Wind Direction. Wind Direction is the direction
that the wind is coming from. You can override the rangefinder onboard sensors by touching on the
Temperature, Pressure or Humidity data coming from the rangefinder and update any setting. Be sure that
your connection is active and press the SYNC button to synchronize your settings with your rangefinder. In
this example the included WindMETER is reading 11 mph, the Wind Direction is 8:00 and the sensor data is
shown below the wind dial. The temperature setting is now controlled by your smartphone as the KILO icon
has been switched to show that your smartphone is now setting the temperature.
Insert a Note between #5 and #6. Push #6 onto a new page.
After adjusting for wind direction and any
environmental parameters, and verifying
that the rangefinder is connected,
press the SYNC button to update the
rangefinder. You are now ready to range.
Using your finger you can touch the numbers on the
clock to adjust the Wind Direction. In this case the Wind
Direction is 8:00 and the Wind Heading is 2:00. The wind is
blowing from the 8:00 position towards the 2:00 position.
You can also override the environmental parameters
from this screen. If the outside temperature is low and
the rangefinder has been in your pocket, you may need
to override the temperature setting by selecting the KILO
icon to the left and manually updating the temperature
to the right.
Note - The WeatherFlow WindMETER is included with the KILO8K-ABS. For some smartphones, the
WindMETER will not function properly due to incompatibilities from smartphone to smartphone. This is
caused by insufficient drive current through the audio jack. Some newer smartphones no longer have an
audio jack.
It is recommended that if you have wind measurement issues with the included WindMETER try
downloading the WeatherFlow app to measure your wind speed and then manually input the wind speed
and wind direction within the Sig Ballistic App. Alternatively, using an external Kestrel and then manually
entering your wind speed and direction is also recommended.
If you are having trouble getting wind measurement with the included WindMETER, please remove the
WindMETER, shutdown and relaunch the Sig Ballistic App and manually enter your wind speed and
direction in the app or directly into the rangefinder.
