Element Optics Rangefinder Module

Mounting

It is extremely important to follow these steps correctly if accurate range measurements are to be obtained. The RF MODULE comes with an included Picatinny Gimbal Mount with which it can be attached to a weapon system. The RF MODULE is 30mm in diameter and therefore CAN be mounted using any standard 30mm ring, however, it is possible that without the extra adjustment that the gimbal provides, the internal up/down/left/right travel of the unit’s turrets may not be adequate. We recommend using the included mount to avoid this issue.

CHOOSING A MOUNTING POINT

Since the riflescope itself will be the viewfinder for the RF MODULE, it is very important to mount the module as close as physically possible to the optical line of sight. The greater the distance between the rangefinder and riflescope, the more challenging it will be to accurately range small targets. 

MOUNTING TO THE ELEMENT HYPR-7

The HYPR-7 is designed to pair with the RF MODULE to provide instant firing solutions with no need for external input. To make this system more user-friendly, we include a short Picatinny rail with the HYPR-7 specifically for mounting the module. This can be fitted directly above or to the side of the HYPR-7.

MOUNTING 3 LASER PATH OPTICAL LINE OF SIGHT OFFSET DISTANCE MOUNTING TO OTHER OPTICS OR RIFLES

To mount to a traditional riflescope, a mount with an integrated top Picatinny rail will be required. Alternatively, the RF MODULE can be mounted to a Picatinny rail on the fore-end of a rifle system. The physical distance between the module and the optic doesn’t matter, as long as the distance between the line of sight and the laser axis is close. Once a mounting point has been chosen, loosen the base screw of the mount with the included T15 Torx Key, fit to the rail, and torque to a maximum of 11 in-kg. Then, loosen the four-ring screws and slide in the RF MODULE. Once roughly in position, the ring screws can be tightened just enough to hold in position but allow movement of the module. These ring screws will be correctly torqued down after the next step is complete. 

Battery and charging

The RF MODULE is powered by an integrated rechargeable CR2 Battery. This cannot be removed but is USB-C chargeable via the port on the bottom rear of the unit. This port also accommodates the remote switch which can be attached to the fore-end of your rifle system. When charging, the display will illuminate and the battery icon will flash between full and empty to indicate the flow of current. When fully charged, The battery icon will appear full. 

Pairing to external devices

The RF MODULE includes a remote switch that can be connected via USB-C and fitted to the grip or stock fore-end within reach of your fingers’ natural position. This can also be removed entirely if cable management becomes an issue; the module CAN operate independently of the remote switch. 

Depending on where the module is mounted, you may need to make use of the included 90-degree adapter. This can be flipped backward or forward depending on which direction the cable is running.

The RF MODULE is compatible with a number of external Bluetooth devices, including the Element HYPR-7 and, most importantly, the Element Ballistics mobile app, from which you can create & send ballistic profiles and change preferences.
