SAFRAN VECTRONIX | VECTOR X – LEM mit Apllied Ballistics Software.
Der Vector-X ist der ideale Laserentfernungsmesser für PRS und Long Range Jagd. Aufgrund der hohen optischen Qualität und den optionalen Range Enhancern erfüllt der leistungsstarke LEM ebenfalls unsere Anforderungen an unser primäres Beobachtungsmittel. Das Gerät ersetzt daher DF/Spektiv und herkömmliche LEM, sodass wir nun ein Gerät weniger mitführen müssen. Der Vector-X kann mit dem Kestrel, Garmin Geräten oder auch mit Applied Ballistiscs Quantum verwendet werden. Innerhalb des Konnektivitäts-Ecosystems bestehen somit verschiedene Möglichkeiten, eine Firing Solution zu errechnen und anzeigen zu lassen.
The name VECTOR is an obligation and a promise of excellence. Therefore, the VECTOR X is much more than just another rangefinding binocular. It features unsurpassed performance, the highest level of usability, and unique features tailored for the most discerning long-range shooters and hunters.
Any rangefinding binocular is ultimately judged by its ability to reliably provide accurate distance measurements for challenging, far away targets. Therefore, we have placed great emphasis on maximizing range performance of the VECTOR X during its development.
Narrow beam divergence
With its 905 nm, class 1M (class 1 in the EU) laser engine and a narrow beam divergence of only 1.5 x 0.1 MRAD (1.8 x 0.1 MRAD for the 8 x 42 model) it sets new standards in the commercial market segment. If ultimate range performance is what you demand from your rangefinding binoculars, the VECTOR X is the right tool for the job.
Other factors beside the laser class and the beam divergence influence range performance. The measurement algorithms of a rangefinder play a significant role as well. The VECTOR X is equipped with two range modes: Universal Laser Mode (ULM) and Long Range Mode (LRM), each offering distinct benefits based on the specific situation you find yourself in. ULM is for the majority of usage situations no matter the weather conditions or the size of the target. LRM is intended for tripod-mounted use and increases the probability of getting results on extremely distant targets
As situations often change within seconds, we have integrated a shortcut that brings you directly to the menu where you can select the range mode. To activate the shortcut, simply press the up arrow button of the D-Pad for one second.
Designed to PERFORM
Mounting your VECTOR X on a tripod will increase the range performance compared to off-hand use, especially with activated Long Range mode. By aligning the thread of the integrated tripod mount of the VECTOR X perpendicular to the range button, we have eliminated unwanted movements of the device when the range button is pressed. This significantly increases the probability of obtaining measurement results on extremely distant targets.
For even greater accuracy, you can take it a step further by utilizing the native mobile app of the VECTOR X to trigger measurements remotely. This feature allows you to initiate measurements without physically touching the rangefinder, thereby minimizing the introduction of any potential movement or instability that could affect its range performance.
By continuously pressing the laser button of your VECTOR X, you activate the scan mode. In scan mode, a new measurement is triggered every 0.25 seconds. This mode is very useful when tracking moving objects.
With the VECTOR X, we strive to deliver the utmost accuracy and reliability when measuring challenging targets. This makes it the rangefinder of choice for the most discerning long-range shooters and long-range hunters.
In addition to its formidable optics and powerful rangefinder, the VECTOR X is equipped with Applied Ballistics Elite on-board as standard. With over 800 bullets in its library and no limitations regarding target distance, Applied Ballistics Elite has quickly become the ballistics solver of choice for many elite military units worldwide. With a press of the range button, your VECTOR X displays a precise firing solution (either in MRAD or MOA) for your rifle setup that factors in the environmental conditions measured by its sensor suite or transmitted by a compatible weather meter.
Thanks to the revolutionary Active Matrix OLED display of the VECTOR X, the elevation value and two windage values calculated by Applied Ballistics Elite fit on a single screen, significantly reducing the time required to adjust your riflescope and make the shot.
With the target card function of the VECTOR X Applied Ballistics Elite calculates firing solutions for multiple targets. By pushing the right directional button of the D-Pad you enter a shortcut that allows you to populate a target card that is stored within your VECTOR X and that can even be exported as a printable PDF-file from the VECTRONIX SHOOTING SOLUTIONS app.
Undoubtedly, a product bearing the Vector name is expected to embody rugged durability, reliable mechanics, superior range performance, and exceptional optical quality. However, what truly distinguishes the VECTOR X from other rangefinding binoculars on the commercial market is its unrivaled level of usability.
Intuitive D-Pad control in combination with the revolutionary Active Matrix OLED display result in a user interface that you can navigate effortlessly. Regardless of your experience level, you will be able to utilize the full functionality of your VECTOR X instantly, without ever having to consult the user manual (which exists anyhow of course).
If you have ever used an electronic device equipped with a D-Pad, you will immediately know how to operate your VECTOR X. Instead of having to learn button combinations as with many other rangefinding binoculars on the market, the five button D-Pad of the VECTOR X lets you navigate its menus intuitively and effortlessly.
The groundbreaking Active Matrix OLED display plays a vital role in giving the VECTOR X an unrivaled level of usability. Not only does it exhibit an impressive visual quality, but it also transforms the user interaction of the VECTOR X. Navigating menus, changing units, or checking your activated gun profile becomes intuitive and effortless. When performing a measurement, all target and ballistic information is presented clearly on the three HUD screens of the VECTOR X. Easily toggle between these screens by pressing the right and left directional buttons on the D-Pad.
Pre-Programmed SHORTCUTS
Often it is time that makes the difference if you succeed in hitting a challenging target or not. While on a hunt, it might be losing precious seconds due to having to operate two separate devices to get a firing solution. At a shooting competition, not knowing how much time is left to complete a stage might lead to missing the final shot. Therefore, your VECTOR X has four pre-programmed shortcuts.
By a long press of the directional buttons of your VECTOR X you can instantly activate important features that might help you succeed in making your next time critical shot. The pre-programmed shortcuts let you select the laser mode, set a timer or stop watch, activate or de-activate Bluetooth or populate a target card.
Over the years, we have delivered a significant number of military Vector rangefinding binoculars to the different branches of the US Armed Forces. Responding to their request for increased magnification, we developed optional screw-on Range Boosters, which increase the base magnification of the Vector by 40%. They quickly gained popularity and became an immediate success.
As we embarked on the development of the VECTOR X, it became evident that a similar accessory that increases magnification would be an essential element we wanted to incorporate. This accessory for the VECTOR X are the optionally available Range Enhancers. They also offer an increase in base magnification by 40% and are easily installed by screwing them onto the threaded objectives of the VECTOR X.
Increase Magnification by 40%
The optional Range Enhancers increase flexibility and range of use of the VECTOR X tremendously. With the Range Enhancers installed, your VECTOR X becomes a formidable long-range spotting device:
8×42 VECTOR X increases to 11×42
10×42 VECTOR X increases to 14×42
12×42 VECTOR X increases to 17×42
We recommend opting for a VECTOR X with the MSR-DMR reticle if you plan to frequently use it with the optional Range Enhancers as the MSR-DMR is calibrated for both magnification levels.
As rugged as the VECTOR X itself
To ensure durability and protection, the Range Enhancers are equipped with a protective rubber armoring. Additionally, they come with a protective soft case for convenient storage and transportation. It’s worth noting that the flip-up lens covers of your VECTOR X can be used with the Range Enhancers as well. This allows for effective protection of the front lenses, guarding them against scratches and other potential damage.
