Page 12: Radar Gun Placement
Radar Gun Placement The most common mistake made with all radar guns is trying to clock targets at angles. All radar guns work on the Doppler principle and need to clock objects moving directly at or away from the gun. Clocking at an angle with a stationary radar gun results in angle error, and the gun displays a speed that is LOWER than the actual speed.
Page 13 JUGS Pro-Sports Radar WARNING Do not attempt to catch a thrown or struck ball and clock with the JUGS Pro-Sports radar simultaneously. This may result in personal injury or damage to your radar gun.
Page 14: Calculating Angle Errors
80 and divide by the cosine of 30 degrees (0.866) to get a true speed of 92 mph. NOTE: You can configure the JUGS Pro-Sports radar to automatically adjust for angle error by changing the Cosine Angle setting in the Option MENU. In the above example, if the Cosine Angle setting is 30, the gun will display 92 MPH, and no manual calculations are necessary.
