Golf Master

Operating Manual

Manuel de l’utilsateur

Congratulations on your purchase of the Golf

Master. Thanks to the team at Excalibur

Electronics, Inc., you now hold electronic golf

scoring, tips, rules, etiquette, and even jokes right in the

palm of your hand.

Be sure to use the Golf Master safely. Before starting,

please read this manual thoroughly, especially noting safe-

ty, care, and battery information. Keep this manual for ref-

erence.

The legendary King Arthur bran-

dished a magic sword, Excalibur,

from which we take our company

name. With this unique weapon in his

hands, he could not be vanquished.

Although Excalibur Electronics can’t

claim the magical secrets of Merlin,

King Arthur’s court wizard, some-

times our patented technology may

make it seem as if we could. The

Golf Master is another unmatched

innovation of Excalibur Electronics.

We make you think.

The Golf Master may lock up due to static discharge. If this

should happen, use a thin, pointed object to press the button

marked "RESET" on the front of the unit.

ENGLISH

Installing Batteries

The Golf Master requires one 3V

Lithium CR2032 battery, included.

Find the circular battery compartment

on the back of the unit. Fit a coin,

such as a quarter or nickel, into the

slot on the battery cover and swivel

the cover until the arrow points to

OPEN. Remove the battery compart-

ment lid by gently tapping the Golf

Master onto your opposite palm (with

the back of the unit facing your palm)

until the battery cover falls off. Install

the battery, making sure to match

polarity (+) with the diagram outside

the battery compartment. Replace the

battery compartment lid and use the

coin to move the arrow to the

CLOSED position. If the scrolling

press the RESET button using a thin,

pointed object. Please see additional

Battery Information on page 14.

Enjoy four convenient options for carrying the Golf Master on and off

the links:

1. Place in shirt or jacket pocket.

2. Place in the Leather Name Tag Holder (included) and slip its belt

through slots at the top of the holder, securing it to your golf bag or

cart, with your name tag or business card facing outward. Flip the

holder upward and use the Golf Master through the protective plas-

tic.

3. Using a Phillips screwdriver (included), attach the Golf Master’s

clip to the top of the unit (see diagram below) and attach the clip to

your golf bag or to belt. (If Golf Master is attached to a belt, the

user must operate it while looking at it upside down.)

4. Using a Phillips screwdriver (included), attach the Golf Master’s

clip to the bottom of the unit (see diagram below) and attach the

clip to your belt. Flip the unit up and operate Golf Master right side up.

ENGLISH

ON/OFF:Press this button to

turn the Golf Master on and off.

When turned off and on, the com-

puter will revert to the last screen

used, unless the power source has

been interrupted (for example,

when changing batteries).

Note: The user can program

information such as names and

courses into the Golf Master.

However, when the battery is fully

depleted, the saved information

will be lost. When the battery

indicator on the top left of the

LCD illuminates (the icon of a

battery 1/3 black), turn the unit

off and change the batteries with-

in 30 seconds. This process

should prevent saved information

from being lost.

Features of the

use, lists rules and etiquette, pro-

vides an extensive glossary, and

even supplies golf-related jokes

for additional entertainment. The

Golf Master is the perfect acces-

sory for the casual player or the

diehard golf devotee.
