Garmin XERO C1 update 3.30

[Ta-Ta Toothie]

On the latest update, there is an option, Added Downrange mode to pro settings. Well did so and enable it but I can't see what data is being collected. After taking a shot, the unit flashes 5 times before displaying the fps and only one. I don't see anything on garmins site explaining this new feature. Anyone else played with this.

Here is a link to the Accurate Shooters Shooter Forum with some more information. It appears to be a software issue, and Garmin is aware.

I ran into this forum after I made this post. I'm not having any issues with missed shots, never did have that problem. My question was how are you to use this new feature. Garmin released this new feature without any explanation. According to what I found on ASF, some say the downrange feature is just a visual aid so you can confirm it read the Shot. Sounds like this may be the case. I'm still waiting on Garmin to confirm.

My Xero is updated to 3.30 so I turned the option on and will check to see if I can detect any difference when I shoot today. Looks like 5 mph winds this morning.

Guys on snipershide said it started missing shots with the new patch. Garmin supposedly has a fix out for it already.

Mine updated several days ago and hasn’t missed shot as yet but I’ve only shot pellets since the update.

Other than it flashing 5 times I see no data difference.

Yup, just looks like a visual aid. I was hoping for something else like ballistics. Bummer.

The option is for placing the unit down range and if it sees a shot it flashes making it easy for the shooter to see the shot was detected.
V3.30 had some missed shot problems which are cured with v3.32

Thanks for the information. I’ll have to update mine and try it.

I wasn’t able to find the 3.32 update but I tried the down range feature. This is shooting my FWB 800 at 25 yards. First with the Xero at 20 yards and then at the muzzle. It’s a great excuse to own multiple units.
