Vector 21

{% hint style="info" %} Introduced in 0.2.414 {% endhint %}

Vector 21 is a binocular rangefinder with day optics, an integrated 3-dimensional, 360° digital compass and a precise class 1 eye-safe laser rangefinder. It provides distance measurements up to 12 km with 7x magnification.

Vector 21

The engraved reticle has a line spacing of 10 mils and line-dot spacing of 5 mils. 1 mil corresponds to 1 m spacing at a distance of 1 km. In the image below you can see a 1 m cube being sighted at 100 m being exactly 10 mils.

While looking through the binocular view you can perform the following actions:

Keys	Description	Examples
Press and hold R key. Hold target for ~2 seconds in red targeting square. Release R key.	Measures distance in meters to target.
Press and hold V key. Hold target for ~2 seconds in red targeting square. Release V key.	Measures azimuth in degrees to target.
Press and hold R+V keys simultaneously. Hold target for ~2 seconds in red targeting square. Release R+V keys.	Measures distance in meters and azimuth in degrees to target.
Press and hold R, tap C to mark first point, move to second point and release R	Measure distance between 2 points.
Tap R once, press and hold R, tap C to mark first point, move to second point and release R	Measure horizontal and vertical distance between 2 points.
Tap V once, press and hold V for ~2 seconds and release.	Measure azimuth and inclination to a point.
Tap R once, press and hold R for ~2 seconds and release.	Measure horizontal and vertical distance to a point.
Press and hold V, tap C to mark first point, move to second and release V.	Measure distance and azimuth between two objects.
Tap V, press and hold V, tap C to mark first point (original target), move to second (arty impact) and release V. The results are displayed together with letters (A. - add, d. - drop, L. - left, r. - right) which indicate the necessary correction terms together with the distance. Example: If a shot is left and short, the correction is r.. and A.. with the appropriate value.	Measure fall of shot between target and arty impact for correction.
