QUICK SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS FOR:

Beta & Gamma Shooting Chrony®s & Beta & Gamma Master Chrony®s

A. FOR OUTDOOR SHOOTING:

Step-1. Take Chrony to the shooting range; ensure a SAFE BACK STOP.

Step-2. Unfold Chrony unit; install a 9-V alkaline battery; mount unit on tripod; or place on table. Make sure that unit is
fully open. For Master Chrony: Plug telephone cable into the back of front sensor housing, the other end into the left side
of LCD Monitor box. For Chrony with Printer: Plug stereo cable to the left side of Printer, the other end to Chrony before
turning on unit, see Fig.10. Distance of Chrony unit from muzzle: Air gun, .22 Rim fire => 3FT; Bow & Arrow =>4FT;
Shot gun =>5FT; .30-30=>8FT; Large rifle=>10FT to 15FT; the bigger blast, the longer distance.

Step-3. On hazy, cloudy days install wire-rods only (as aiming guides), see Fig.7 below.

Step-4. On clear, sunny days install wire-rods with white plastic diffusers to simulate clouds. To install wire-rods and
diffusers, see Fig.6 below. To set-up for different type of guns, see Fig. 8 & 9 below.

Step-5. Make sure battery is better than 7.5V and there is nothing between Chrony and sky ( no branches, no roof, etc.).

Step-6. Turn on Chrony, “ BE “ (B.E for metric) displays for Beta, Beta Master model; or “ GA “ (G.A for metric) displays
for Gamma, Gamma Master Chrony and symbol bar bouncing up & down both sides.

Step-7. Shoot through centre of triangle; 4” above Chrony if open sights; 6” above Chrony if scope sights. Chrony starts to
register shots in the first empty string.

Step-8. After each shot, Chrony will show the shot number then the velocity. The velocity will stay till you shoot again.

Features:

• Beta model has 6 strings with maximum 10 shots each.

• Gamma model has 50 strings for Velocity-Mode and 50 strings for Timer-Mode with maximum 10 shots each
string (Changing string size page #16&17).
• “ FU “ button: Press & Release to review the statistic velocity as Highest (Hi), Lowest (Lo), Average (Av)
velocity, Extremely Spread (ES), Standard Deviation (SD), Total shots ( é ) and individual shots.
• “FORGET ” button: Press & Release to delete all shots in a working string.
• “ ST ” button: ¨Press & Release to save shots from working memory to permanent memory and automatically
move to next empty string (to delete shots in permanent memory see page # 6). ¨ To review statistic velocity or
download data into computer (requires an IBM/PC Interface (Item# 40) and a Chrony Ballistics II Software
(Item# 37), not included): For Beta & Gamma Model, press & hold “ST” button while turning On unit to disable
the photo sensors, see page # 18. For Beta & Gamma Master Model, just plug the separate battery-cable with jack
(included) into LCD monitor box. ¨During reviewing statistic velocity, press & release ST button once will reset
to “Ready Symbol -[ ]– “(means ready to shoot again see page# 7) and many press will scroll up string numbers.
• “FU & ST” button: Press & Hold “FU” button while press & release “ST” button to scroll down string numbers.
• “TIMER” button (for Gamma & Gamma Master Model only): ¨When Chrony first turn on or during shooting
session, press & release to convert from Velocity-Mode to Timer-Mode which measures elapsed-time between
shots, see page # 7. To convert back to Velocity-Mode, press and release “ ST “ button to reset to “ Ready Symbol
– [ ] – “ then press & hold Timer button for more than 3 sec. ¨ Chrony measures velocity and elapsed-time
between shots at the same time; selected mode will be visible while other mode will be invisible.

Repeat Step-1 & Step-2 above.

Step-2a. Assemble the Indoor Light Fixture as Fig.11 below.

Step-2b. Turn Off all halogen, fluorescent lights directly above Chrony.

2) Attach both Diffuser End-Pieces to the Center-

Piece.

3) Insert the Wire-Rods into the front and rear

sensor housings of the Chrony.

4) Mount the Diffusers over the Wire-Rods.
