Three-step path
From the box to your first result
Complete these steps in order. The NSCIT App is not required for this initial check.
-
Confirm the accessories
Confirm that Spotter, the Bluetooth ranging remote, batteries, eyepiece sleeve, matching liners, level, hex key, and screwdriver are present.
-
Install batteries and power on
Install a CR123A or 16340 battery in Spotter and a CR1632 battery in the remote, following the illustrated orientation. Short-press the Spotter range button and confirm that the OLED turns on. Power on the remote; it reconnects to its paired Spotter automatically.
-
Mount, level, and check
Choose the matching eyepiece liner and push it fully into place. Level Spotter, then tighten the screws alternately and evenly without overtightening. Spotter is zeroed at the factory; check alignment after mounting and use pages 10–12 of the User Guide only if it is not aligned.
Setup complete
Confirm one complete measurement
A successful first check shows both of the following on the OLED:
- A valid distance
- A ballistic result

Optional
Connect a phone with the NSCIT App
Spotter can complete the first measurement above without the App. Use the App only when you want its phone-based features.
Connect and retry
- Open the NSCIT App and stay on the home screen.
- If Spotter powers on while the App is open, wait for the device to appear, then tap its connection icon. The device name is shown as Spotter-XXXX.
- If Spotter was already on but does not appear, short-press the Spotter range button to advertise again. The advertising window is about 10 seconds.
- A typical connection takes about 3–5 seconds. When connected, the App enters the Spotter home screen; the OLED does not show an extra change.
- If connection fails, short-press the range button and try again. If it still fails, restart Spotter before retrying.
Note: This connects Spotter to a phone. It is separate from remote pairing.
