OK I am stupid.
I don't know how to set (and un-set) the scan mode.
The manual states:
"Hold down the main button (2) at the 2nd press.
After around 2.5 seconds"
I don't know what that means!
Thanks for any help!

Is there an 800 number in the manual?
Anyway if you had bought an ffp mil/mil scope you apperently wouldnt even need the ****ed thing. lol
With my Leica rangefinder I hold down the button and after a few seconds the range flash's and then it is in scan mode. Can then point it at various objects and the range will continuously update.

I don't recall that you have to "unset" it, I think it does that on its own once you release the button and stop ranging, but I just don't remember how it works well enough. Kinda put it out of mind once I switched to Zeiss.
Seems everyone wants to range with a scope. Well i don't care how good a scope is it will not replace a rangefinder for ranging objects of unknown size. It will also range with more accuracy and most will range within 2 yards inside their published capabilities.Quote:

Excellent advise, until the battery dies, or some other mishap occurs that renders electronics unreliable. I've found that my Swaro range finder gives erroneous readings in sub zero temperatures.Quote:

Back to scan, my Bushnells require you to keep the button held to scan and then revert back to normal one the button is released.
