The Kestrel employs a stable, accurate pressure sensor to
measure station pressure, the unadjusted air pressure in
your location.
» To use your Kestrel to measure barometric pressure
(station pressure adjusted for local elevation), you
must enter a correct reference value for your altitude.
Accurate barometric readings require that no elevation
changes be made while taking measurements.
» To use your Kestrel to measure altitude changes
(changes in station pressure associated with changes
in elevation), you must enter a correct reference
value for your starting barometric pressure. Accurate
altitude readings depend on stable, weather related
barometric air pressure while measurements are taken.
» Synched values between the Altitude and Barometer
measurement screens allow reference value updates
on either screen to automatically update reference
values on the other. You cannot use your Kestrel as a
barometer and altimeter simultaneously.
ALTIMETER AND BAROMETER
SETTING REFERENCE VALUES ON BARO
MEASUREMENT SCREEN:
» Scroll to the Baro measurement screen and
select Settings.
» Adjust either the Altitude or the Barometric
Pressure value to a local, known value obtained
from a mapping reference, GPS, or accurate
weather station in the same location.
SETTING REFERENCE VALUES ON ALTITUDE
MEASUREMENT SCREEN:
» Scroll to the ALTITUDE measurement screen
and select Settings.
» Adjust either the Altitude or the Barometric
Pressure value to a local, known value obtained
from a mapping reference, GPS, or accurate
weather station in the same location.
Note! You should enter new reference values whenever you are
using the Altimeter or Barometer functions and your location or
the weather conditions have changed.
Note! You do NOT need to enter Altimeter or Barometer
reference values to obtain accurate ballistics targeting solutions.
The ballistics calculator employs the station pressure.
Don’t forget! Set your Operating Mode to Ballistics on
the Options Menu to use Ballistics features!
For ease of access, the ballistics Targeting Screen also
contains the Ballistics Menu. Simply scroll down from the
Targeting Screen to access these settings and submenus:
» Target
» Wind
» Gun
» Environment
» Range Card
(Elite Model only)
» Ballistics (Limited on Sportsman model, full on Elite model)
» Manage Guns
Note! The back of this guide contains a full Glossary of the terms used.

CREATING GUN & BULLET PROFILES
EDIT TARGET:
» Scroll to and select Tgt.
» Set range, angle, target speed, and wind values
to match your target.
EDIT TARGET OR CREATE ADDITIONAL TARGETS:
(Elite model only)
» Scroll to and select Tgt.
» Set range, angle, target speed, and wind values
to match your target.
The elite model allows up to ve targets (A TO E).
» Make sure Target is set to Active.
» To enable more than one target, or edit other
active targets, scroll up to the header named
Target and use the left/right buttons to scroll
between targets (A through E). Set a target to
Active to enable it, then edit its values.
» When only one target is active, its range can also
be modied directly from the main Targeting
Screen by highlighting Tgt and scrolling left or
right.
» If more than one target is set to Active,
highlighting Tgt in the main Targeting screen
and scrolling left or right will scroll between
active targets.
