Scout™1000 ARC™ Laser Rangeﬁnder. The

Scout™1000 ARC is a precision Laser Rangeﬁnding optical instrument designed to provide many years

of enjoyment. This booklet will help you achieve optimum performance by explaining its adjustments and

features as well as how to care for this device. To ensure optimal performance and longevity, please read

these instructions before using your Scout™1000 ARC laser rangeﬁnder.

HOW OUR DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY WORKS

The Scout™1000 ARC™ emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. The Scout ™ 1000‘s Advanced

Digital microprocessor and ASIC chip (Application-Speciﬁc Integrated Circuit) results in instantaneous

and accurate readings every time. Sophisticated digital technology instantaneously calculates distances

by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the rangeﬁnder, to the target, and back.

RANGING ACCURACY

The ranging accuracy of the Scout™1000 is plus or minus one yard / meter under most circumstances.

The maximum range of the instrument depends on the reﬂectivity of the target. The maximum distance for

most objects is 650 yards / 594 meters while for highly reﬂective objects the maximum is 1000 yards /

914 meters. Note: You will get both longer and shorter maximum distances depending on the reﬂective

properties of the particular target and the environmental conditions at the time the distance of an object

is being measured.

The color, surface ﬁnish, size and shape of the target all affect reﬂectivity and range. The brighter the

color, the longer the range. White is highly reﬂective, for example, and allows longer ranges than the

color black, which is the least reﬂective color. A shiny ﬁnish provides more range than a dull one. A small

target is more difﬁcult to range than a larger target. The angle to the target also has an effect. Shooting to

a target at a 90 degree angle (where the target surface is perpendicular to the ﬂight path of the emitted

energy pulses) provides good range while a steep angle on the other hand, provides limited ranging. In

addition, lighting conditions (e.g. the amount of sunlight) will affect the ranging capabilities of the unit.

The less light (e.g. overcast skies) the farther the unit’s maximum range will be. Conversely, very sunny

days will decrease the unit’s maximum range.

GETTING STARTED

INSERTING THE BATTERY

Remove the battery cap with a coin by rotating the cap counter clockwise and insert a 3-volt lithium

battery into the compartment positive end ﬁrst, then replace the battery cap.

NOTE: It is recommended that the battery be replaced at least once every 12 months.

Low Battery Indicator: If the “

” is displayed within the in-view readout, this means “low battery”

or battery charge is getting low and the 3-volt lithium battery should be replaced.

ADJUSTING THE EYEPIECE

Your Scout™ 1000 is constructed with an adjustable eyepiece (+/- 2 Diopter Adjustment) that allows one

to focus the LCD display relative to the image. For users without eyeglasses, simply rotate the eyepiece

until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus to your eye. If you wear glasses, make sure the

eyecup is folded in the down position as this will bring your eye closer the eyepiece lens allowing you to

see a full ﬁeld of view and then rotate the eyepiece until the reticle and object distanced to are in focus

to your eye.

OPERATIONAL SUMMARY

While looking through the 5x eyepiece, depress the power button once to activate the in-view Liquid

Crystal Display (LCD). Place the aiming circle (located in the center of the ﬁeld of view) upon a target at

least 5 yards away, depress and hold the power button down until the range reading is displayed near

the bottom of the in-view display. Crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is

being transmitted. Once a range has been acquired, you can release the power button. The crosshairs

surrounding the aiming circle will disappear once the power button has been released (i.e. the laser is no

longer being transmitted). Note: Once activated, the LCD will remain active and display the last distance

measurement for 30 seconds. You can depress the power button again at any time to distance to a new

target. As with any laser device, it is not recommended to directly view the emissions for long periods of

time with magniﬁed lenses. The maximum time the laser is transmitted (ﬁred) is 10 seconds. To re-ﬁre,

press the button down again.

LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY (LCD) INDICATORS

Your Scout™ 1000 LCD incorporates illuminated indicators that advise the user unit of measure, when

the laser is actively ﬁring, when a target has been acquired, and targeting modes. A summary of these

features is presented below:

UNIT OF MEASURE OPTIONS

The Scout™ 1000 can be used to measure distances in yards or meters. The unit of measure indicators

are located in the lower right portion of the LCD. To select between yards and meters, press and release

the POWER button to turn on the unit (on top of the unit), look through the eyepiece, depress the “MODE”

button (left side of the unit) and hold it down for approximately 5 seconds. The word “SETUP” will

appear at the top if the LCD display and the current unit of measure, “Y” for yards or “M” for Meters will

ﬂash in the LCD and the SETUP icon will still be displayed. Pressing the MODE button will toggle the unit

of measure.

When the desired unit of measure is displayed, press the POWER button to accept the unit of measure

and to return to the normal operating menu. The Scout™ 1000 will return to the last unit of measure

setting used each time the unit is turned on.

ACTIVE LASER

Crosshairs surrounding the aiming circle indicate that the laser is being transmitted. Once a range has

been acquired, you can release the power button. The crosshairs surrounding the circle will disappear

once the power button has been released (i.e. the laser is no longer being transmitted).

SELECTIVE TARGETING™ MODES

The Scout™ 1000 was especially designed with hunters in mind. The selective targeting modes allow you

to adjust the performance parameters of the unit to suit your speciﬁc situation and environment. To move

from one mode to another, press the POWER button once to turn on the unit. While looking through the

eyepiece, press the MODE button and quickly release. The different targeting modes available and mode

indicators are listed below:

Standard with Automatic SCAN (LCD Indicator – none) This setting allows

most targets to be distanced up to 1000 yards. Used for moderately reﬂective

targets that are typical of most distancing situations. The minimum distance

in the standard mode is 5 yards. To use the Automatic SCAN feature, simply

hold down on the POWER button for approximately 3 seconds and move the

rangeﬁnder from object to object while leaving the POWER button depressed.

Automatic SCAN will allow the range to be continuously updated as multiple

objects are targeted.

BullsEye™ (LCD Indicator -

) This advanced mode allows easy acquisition of

small targets and game without inadvertently getting distances to background

targets that have stronger signal strength. When more than one object has

been acquired, distance of the closer object will be displayed and a crosshair

will surround the BullsEye™ indicator informing the user that distance to the

closer object is being displayed in the LCD.

10

Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align the aiming circle onto the

object (i.e. deer) that you want distance to. Next, press and hold the POWER button and move the laser

slowly over the deer until crosshairs surround the BullsEye indicator. If the laser beam recognized more

than one object (i.e. deer and background trees), distance of the closer object (i.e. deer) will be displayed

and crosshairs will surround the BullsEye indicator informing the user that distance to the closer object

is being displayed in the LCD (Figure 1). There may be times when only the laser beam only sees one

object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but because more than one object was not

acquired, crosshairs will not surround the BullsEye indicator.

Figure 1

11

TIP: While pressing the POWER button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and

intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the closest of the

objects recognized by the laser.

Brush™ (LCD Indicator -

) This advanced mode allows objects such as brush

and tree branches to be ignored so that distance only to background objects

are displayed. When more than one object has been acquired, distance of the

further object will be displayed and a circle will surround the Brush™ indicator

informing the user that distance of the farthest object is being displayed in the

LCD.

Once in this mode, press the POWER button to turn the unit on. Next, align

the aiming circle onto the object that you want distance to. Next, press and

hold the POWER button and move the laser slowly over the object until a circle

surrounds the Brush indicator. If the laser beam recognized more than one

object (i.e. close-up tree branch and a deer in the background), distance of

the further object (i.e. deer) will be displayed and a circle will surround the

brush indicator informing the user that distance to the farther object is being

displayed in the LCD (Figure 2). There may be times when only the laser beam

only sees one object in its path. In this case, the distance will be displayed, but

because more than one object was not acquired, the circle will not surround

the Brush indicator.

TIP: While pressing the POWER button, you can move the device slowly from object to object and

intentionally force the laser to hit multiple objects to ensure that you are only displaying the furthest of the

objects recognized by the laser.

Once the device has shut off, the unit will always default back to the last targeting mode used.

OPTICAL DESIGN

Magniﬁcation and Coatings

The Scout™1000 ARC™ features 5x magniﬁcation and Multi-Coated optics. A liquid crystal display

(LCD) is mounted within the optical system and when activated, displays a reticle for targeting, yards /

meters, and Mode indicators. Inherent in the manufacturing process are small black spots that appear

in the optical system. These are a natural characteristic of the LCD and cannot be fully eliminated in the

manufacturing process. They do not affect the distancing performance of the unit.

RAINGUARD™ HD

The outer surfaces of the objective and eyepiece lenses are coated with RainGuard™ HD. RainGuard™

HD is Buhsnell’s permanent, patented, hydrophobic (water repellant) lens coating the prevents fogging

by causeing condensation from rain, sleet, snow or even your own breath to bead up into much smaller

droplets than on standard coatings. Smaller uniform droplets scatter less light which results in a clearer,

brighter view.

TRIPOD MOUNT

Molded into the bottom of your Scout™ 1000 is a threaded tripod mount that will allow you to attach a

tripod for a more stable operation during long periods of use.

13

Scout 1000™ with ARC™ (Angle Range Compensation): In addition to all of the features described

above, the Scout™ 1000 ARC™ is an advanced premium laser rangeﬁnder featuring a built-in

accelerometer-based inclinometer that digitally displays the exact angle from -60 to +60 degrees of

elevation and is +/- 1.0 degree accurate.

The Bushnell

®

Scout™1000 with ARC™ solves a problem hunters have been faced with for years. The

problem: Bow and riﬂe hunters have struggled with extreme uphill and downhill angles because of how

these angles alter true horizontal distance to your target. The Solution: ARC’s integrated inclinometer

provides elevation angle to allow for distance compensation when targeting objects that are either uphill

or downhill. This data is then combined with internal algorithmic ballistic formulas.

ARC (Angle Range Compensation) Modes

Bow Mode ( ): Displays line of sight distance, degree of elevation, and true horizontal distance from

5-99 yards / meters and a maximum inclination of +/- 60°.

Riﬂe Mode ( ): Calculates and displays the amount of bullet drop, at the target in inches or

centimeters. The amount of bullet drop is determined by the line of sight distance to the target, degree of

elevation, along with the speciﬁc ballistic characteristics of the caliber and ammunition load. When you

range your target, the line of sight, degree of elevation, and bullet-drop/holdover in inches or centimeters

will be displayed from 100 to 800 yards/meters with a maximum inclination of +/- 60°. One of eight

ballistic groups (identiﬁed as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H) for center ﬁre riﬂes and two ballistic groups

(Identiﬁed as I and J) for Black Powder / Muzzleloaders can be selected by the user, with each formula

representing a given combination of caliber and loads. The ballistic groups are selected by the user in

the SET-UP menu.

14

Regular Mode

( ): This mode does not provide any degree of elevation or compensated distance, but

instead, line of sight distance only.

MENU SETUP – SELECTION of BOW, RIFLE, REGULAR MODES and UNIT OF MEASURE

There are two ARC (Angle Range Compensation) modes and one REGULAR mode. The two ARC modes

are BOW mode and RIFLE mode.

To select between these modes, ﬁrst turn the unit “ON” by pressing and releasing the POWER button.

Next, press and hold the MODE button for ﬁve seconds. The “SETUP” display icon will light and the

current compensation mode will be identiﬁed by either the “BOW” symbol (

), the “RIFLE symbol

( ) lit with one of the ballistic groups (A thru J) displayed and ﬂashing, or no indicators lit and the

message (

) ﬂashing in the bottom of the LCD.

The modes can be cycled through in a circular fashion by pressing and releasing the mode button. The

order of modes is a follows: BOW, RIFLE A, RIFLE B, RIFLE C, RIFLE D, RIFLE E, RIFLE F, RIFLE G, RIFLE H,

RIFLE I, RIFLE J, REG, etc. When the bow selection is displayed, the “BOW” icon will ﬂash and when

a “RIFLE: selection is displayed, the “RIFLE” icon will be steady, but the ballistic group will be ﬂashing

toward the bottom of the LCD. When the (

) is displayed, the message ( ) will ﬂash near the

bottom of the LCD.

Once the desired distance compensation mode is displayed, select it by pressing and releasing the

POWER button. Following this selection, the current unit of measure, “Y” for yards or “M” for meters will

ﬂash in the LCD and the SETUP icon is still lit. Pressing the MODE button will toggle the unit of measure.

When the desired unit of measure is displayed, press the POWER button to accept the unit of measure

15

and to return to the normal operating menu. Upon returning to the normal operating menu, the current

compensation mode and unit of measure will be identiﬁed in the LCD as indicated below.

SETUP menu Normal Operating Menu

When the unit automatically powers down, operation will always return to the normal operation (i.e.

away from SETUP) with the last used ARC mode active (i.e. BOW, RIFLE, or REGULAR) along with the last

used TARGETING modes active (Standard SCAN, BULLSEYE, or BRUSH). If the unit turns off while in the

SETUP menu, the unit will always return to the last mode(s) still active.

Once the range is displayed, continue to hold the POWER button down for approximately 2 seconds

while holding the aiming circle on the object and keeping the unit as steady as possible so as to allow the

inclinometer enough time to measure angle. Then release the POWER button. Once you have released

the power button, a degree of angle and compensated range will be displayed beneath the line of sight

distance as seen in the images below.

16

BOW MODE EXAMPLE

Line of sight is 32 yards, angle is -44 degrees, and the Angle Range Compensated distance is 23 yards.

The “

” means “play” or “shoot as,” so instead of shooting as 32 yards, shoot as 23 yards. If you were

to shoot as if 32 yards, you would shoot over the top of the deer because of the severe angle.

If in BOW mode, the line of sight distance will display in the primary numeric display and the inclination

and horizontal distance will display in the secondary numeric displays. Bushnell determined through

extensive testing and interviews with high-proﬁle bow hunting experts that multiple bow ballistic groups

were not necessary. Bow-hunters want to know true horizontal distance because that is how they practice

shooting, and once they conﬁdently know that, they can make any necessary adjustments. Giving the

bow-hunter anything else other than horizontal distance creates additional confusion and uncertainty.

Many people mistakenly believe that uphill shots perform differently from downhill shots because of

gravity. However, it is not due to gravity, but more of an aberration of the sighting system used on bows.

17

The sighting pin on a bow resides several inches above the mechanical axis of the arrow. For example,

when one is aiming 23 degrees up an incline, the arrow is at a different angle.

RIFLE MODE EXAMPLE

Line of sight is 376 yards, angle is -33 degrees, and the bullet-drop/holdover is 28 inches. ARC not only

takes into account ballistic data based off your caliber and load from distances of 100-800 yards, but

also compensates for any uphill and downhill angles which also affect bullet-drop.

If in RIFLE mode, the ballistic group will be displayed in the bullet drop numeric ﬁeld anytime that the

primary numeric display is showing dashes (i.e. no target acquired). When a target is acquired in RIFLE

mode, the line of sight distance will display in the secondary numeric displays. The “IN” icon (i.e. inches)

will light next to the bullet drop numeric display, if the unit of measure is set to Yards (Y). If the unit of

measure is set to Meters (M), the bullet drop will be calculated and displayed in centimeters and the “IN”

icon will be turned off. If the bullet drop / hold over number is blinking, this means the user should add

100 to the number blinking.

18

REGULAR MODE

This mode does not provide any degree of elevation or compensated distance, but instead, line of sight

distance only. The will still appear below the line of sight numeric display, but there will not be any

information displayed in this secondary numeric display.

KNOWING WHICH BALLISTIC GROUP TO SELECT

Bushnell engineers have worked with Sierra® Bullets’ ballistic programs and grouped many of the most

popular calibers and loads into eight ballistic groups (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H). Once you know what caliber

and load you are shooting simply look through the chart to determine which one of the eight ballistic

groups match with your particular load and caliber. For Muzzleloaders, we have worked with PowerBelt

Bullets to incorporate ballistic data into two ballistic groups (I and J).

Above are a few of the most popular caliber / load combinations. The enclosed Ballistics CD contains

approximately 1000 caliber and load combinations. Simply load the CD into your computer CD drive

and follow the instructions on your screen. This complete list can also be found on Bushnell’s website

(www.bushnell.com).

After you have determined which ballistic group corresponds to your caliber and load, select this ballistic

group (See MENU SETUP above).The internal formula will determine amount of bullet drop / holdover in

inches or centimeters based upon distance, angle, and ballistics of your caliber and load.

NOTE: All bullet drop / holdover data for ballistic settings A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H assumes the riﬂe

has been sighted in at 100 yards. Bullet drop / holdover date for ballistic setting I and J assume the

muzzleloader has been sighted in at 150 yards.

This state-of-the-art digital technology allows the hunter or shooter to know precisely where to hold for an

effective shot. This information should be treated as a helpful guide or tool and in no way should it ever

replace practice and familiarity with your riﬂe, cartridge and load. We encourage practice shooting at

different ranges so you know how your riﬂe, cartridge and load will perform under various conditions.

Always know what is behind your bullet; if you don’t know, don’t take the shot.

EXAMPLE

You have a 300 WSM and are shooting the following Winchester brand load: 180 gr. Ballistic Silver

Tip bullet at 3010 FPS muzzle velocity. This combination falls under Ballistic Group “F”. After setting the

rangeﬁnder to ballistic group “F”, go to the range and sight in your riﬂescope at 100 yards. If you then

take a shot at a target at 317 yds, the bullet drop will be 9 inches. If the shot is at angle of 27 degrees

upward, then the corrected bullet drop will be 8 inches.
