See the instructions below illustrating how to place the ball and gain ball lock. 

PLACEMENT GUIDELINES 

Place the GC2 upright on a level surface with the camera side (front) facing the hitting area.

Side view showing correct GC2 setup. The GC2 stands upright on a level surface with its front (camera side) facing the golf ball. The ball sits on the same level surface a short distance in front of the device, not on a raised tee or mat edge. A dotted line labeled "Level Surface" shows that the GC2 and the ball rest at the same height.

 

Overhead view showing where to place the ball. A triangular hit zone, outlined with a dotted line, sits on the ground directly in front of the GC2's cameras. The narrow point of the triangle starts at the front of the device and the zone widens as it extends away. One edge of the zone measures 16 inches. Place the ball inside this triangle, in front of the cameras, for the GC2 to detect it and capture the shot.

PLACING THE BALL & BALL LOCK

  1. The LED will slowly blink blue and the display will read NO BALL DETECTED
  2. Place a single golf ball in front of the GC2 camera.
  3. The GC2 display will show a placement aid to help position the ball correctly.
  4. If the ball is detected but outside the hit zone, the display shows: MOVE BALL INTO ZONE and the LED will rapidly blink blue. Reposition the ball.
  5. If multiple balls are detected, multiple balls will show on the placement aid and the display shows: MOVE BALL INTO ZONE. Remove the excess ball(s).
  6. Once correctly positioned, the display shows READY and the LED turns solid blue.
Three GC2 display screens that guide ball placement, shown left to right. "No ball detected": an empty gray triangle means no ball is in view; the Status Light slowly blinks blue. "Move ball into zone": a dot outside the triangle means the ball is detected but outside the hit zone; the Status Light rapidly blinks blue, so move the ball into the triangle. "Ready": the ball is inside a glowing blue triangle and the Status Light is solid blue, so the GC2 is ready to capture the shot.
