Vector 21 Rangefinder

The Vector 21 rangefinder is an ACE3 added rangefinder. Unlike other rangefinders, it doesn’t just magically show you the range to your target, but in exchange allows you to do alot of things with it that the other choices in Arma do not offer. The Vector’s functions include, but are not limited to:

Distance to a target
Azimuth to a target
Horizontal and vertical distance to a target
Distance between 2 targets
Angle between 2 targets
Switching between feet and meters
Switching between degrees and mils …

Usage

The Vector is controlled with 2 keys: the azimuth key and the range key; Tab and Rand is brought up like any other binoculars.

Distance

Press and hold R until the red pointing circle appears. Sight the circle on the object and release the key.

Azimuth

Press and hold the Tab ↹ until the azimuth is displayed.

Distance and Azimuth

Press and hold both R and Tab ↹ until the red pointing circle appears.
Sight the circle on the object and release both keys.

Horizontal distance and height difference

Tap R once then press and hold it until the red pointing circle appears.
Sight the circle on the object and release the key.

Azimuth and Inclination

Tap Tab ↹ once then press and hold it until the azimuth and inclination is displayed.

Distance between two points

Press and hold R until the red pointing circle appears.
Sight the circle on the first object and tap Tab ↹ while further holding R. The first measurement is confirmed (“1-P” = first point).
Sight the second object and release R.

Horizontal and vertical distance between two points

Tap R once then press and hold it until the red pointing circle appears.
Sight the circle on the object and tap Tab ↹ once. The first measurement is confirmed (“1-P” = first point).
Sight the second object and release R.

Horizontal distance and azimuth between two points

Press and hold Tab ↹ until the azimuth appears.
Sight the circle on the first object and tap R while further holding Tab ↹. The first measurement is confirmed (“1-P” = first point).
Sight the second object and release Tab ↹.

Fall of shot

Tap Tab ↹ once then press and hold it until the azimuth appears.
Sight the circle on the object and tap R while further holding Tab ↹. The first measurement is confirmed (“1-P” = first point).
Sight the Fall of shot and release Tab ↹. The left digits display the left (L)/right (r) correction value in meter and the right digits display the longer (A = add)/shorter (d = drop) correction value in meter. If R is tapped the height correction values will be displayed (UP and down).

Setting the measurement units (degrees/mils & meters/feet)

- Tap Tab ↹ five times fast. “Unit Set” appears briefly.
- Press R until the desired units are displayed.
- Tap Tab ↹ five times fast to save the selection.
