The Bushnell HuntFXi Features: Automatically Updated 7-DAY Forecast As long as your PC is connected to the Internet, and the Bushnell HuntFXi software is active (it can be left running in the background with minimal CPU usage, while you use your computer for other tasks), the 7-day forecast and weather data displayed on the unit will be automatically updated from the Internet throughout the day via AccuWeather.com and sent to the Receiver unit wirelessly via the USB Transmitter. The Receiver may be placed anywhere in your home, up to about 245 feet (75 meters) away from the Transmitter. The Forecast Data includes: – Weather forecast and hunting conditions for the US and Canada – Current temperature with “RealFeel®” – High & low temperature – Relative humidity – Chance of precipitation – Average wind speed & direction – Sunrise/Sunset times – Moon phase – Barometric pressure with trend – Auto-synchronized (Internet) clock – Alarm function with snooze – Color backlight – color indicates current temp range Quick Start Guide 1) Install the Software Insert the CD, click the “HuntFXi Setup Wizard” button and follow the onscreen directions to install the HuntFXi software on your PC (Windows 2000 or later, with an “always on” internet connection). 2) Connect the Transmitter Connect the USB Transmitter to your PC’s USB port. 3) Launch the HuntFXi application, Set Locations and Units Double click the “HuntFXi” icon on your desktop. When the application opens, move the cursor into the far left box at the top, then click “Edit Location” when it appears. Set your current location by selecting from the four drop down lists, then click “Save”. Follow the same process to setup any or all of the remaining four location boxes. Next, click the “Settings” button and set your preferences for temperature, wind speed units and time format, then click “Save”. In the main HuntFXi application window, you can click in any of the other “location boxes” you set up to see the forecast for that city. 4) Setup the Receiver Unit (Remote Display) Insert 4xAA batteries into the Receiver, or connect the AC adapter. The Receiver’s display initializes and reads “Searching for PC” (press the SEARCH button on the back of the unit if this does not appear). Attach the easel stand to the Receiver and place it near the PC so you can see its display while you complete the setup. 5) Transmit Weather Data from the PC Application to the Receiver Click “Send to Receiver” on the HuntFXi program window. The red LED on the USB Transmitter will glow, then blink while data is transferred from the PC software to the Receiver. The Receiver will indicate “PC FOUND-PLS WAIT 5 MINS” When the Transmitter’s light stops flashing, check to see that the receiver’s display matches the weather data shown on the PC screen. Make sure the location box selected on the HuntFXi application and the “Favorite” location # on the Receiver display are the same (use the +/-buttons on the Receiver to change locations). Also be sure the units for temperature, wind speed, etc. are set the same (click “Settings” on the software screen, press UNITS on back of the Receiver and change them using the +/-buttons if necessary-press UNITS again to change other displayed units). Keep the HuntFXi application running in the background and keep your PC powered on and connected to the internet, so the Receiver can provide you with the latest up-to-date forecast information.
