    Hello all,

    I have a kestrel 5700 sportsman that I recently updated to the new 5700 (non elite) firmware.

    I use the kestrel link app to manage my rifle profiles and was playing with one thats zero height was set 3 inches low (-.3). Well I ended up canceling the zero offset now I cant seem to figure out how to set it lower now. Any help will be appreciated. Pic below shows all the inputs I have available.

    Maybe I’m using it wrong. I’ve got the sight over bore set at 2.00 which is good. I try to zero my rifles about a tenth mil low and would measure the center of my “zero” from the aim point and enter that in the zero height. The app used to be pretty easy to enter a neg number for zero height, now it is not.

    Ah. Now it got you. The offset is in inches not mils.
