If you have a SkyCaddie Touch you can reset the caddie by pressing and holding down the power button for about 25 seconds.
Moreover, the Skycaddie watch battery life is one of its best features as it has an up to 10-hour battery life, easily affording you two rounds in a row.
If you have a SkyCaddie Breeze or SGX you can reset these devices by pressing and holding down the power button and pushing in on the joystick (like a doorbell button) at the same time for about 10 seconds. The caddie should power off. Then, power the caddie back on and it should be responding properly.
Simply connect the USB end of the cable to your computer and the micro-USB end to the SX500. 3. Your SkyCaddie SX500 will automatically begin charging once the USB cable is inserted in the port. You will see a Battery icon appear on the screen when attached.
A: Yes, you keep paying $29.99 for the membership (for nothing) every year. If you stop renewing your SkyGolf 360 membership, your watch will not work !!!
Generally the lifetime of a watch battery is between two and five years. Its longevity depends on the type of watch, its dimensions and the amount of energy required by the different functions. For example, a chronograph will have a higher energy consumption than a watch that only indicates hours, minutes and seconds.
On average, a watch battery lasts for about two years. However, this can vary depending on multiple factors like its functions, age, how long it`s been stored at the manufacturer, etc. Some watch batteries last for about 14 to 24 months, while others can go up to 6 years.
Without a membership, you will have to use the SGX to map basic green targets for the courses you play, prior to playing with the SGX again. You will not be able to create your own IntelliGreen® or HoleVue™ graphics, as these are only available to members through our professionally-mapped courses.
To power on your SkyCaddie SX500, press and hold the POWER button until the display turns on. To power off, press and hold the POWER button for about three seconds and confirm the prompt on the screen of your SkyCaddie SX500.
How much data does SkyCaddie Mobile use during a normal round of golf? The app uses approximately 20mb of data to download the course. But you can download the course over Wi-Fi before the round starts to save this data. And if you do this, you`ll use less than 1mb of data during the round of golf.
Yes, even broken old lasers and GPS devices are eligible. Your SkyCaddie dealer will discount your new SkyCaddie by £50 off RRP including VAT at the point of purchase, after they have taken possession of your old laser or GPS device.
Golfers looking for the best display should consider the SkyCaddie SX550 or the Garmin S62 . Both provide clear and concise visuals that are easy to navigate. The SkyCaddie SX400 also performed well in this category.
What if My LX5 is Frozen or Stuck on a Screen? Hold down the power button for 8 seconds. The device should reset and work fine.
On the SkyCaddie TOUCH

Press and hold the MENU button on the side of the TOUCH until the Settings menu appears. Select ACCESS CODE by touching the display. The unique 8-character Access Code will show.

The control screen operates by a battery which is charged by cycling. We were in a car accident and it was unused long enough to run down the battery. When this happened before, we cycled till it was charged and then it worked. Now though, it is stuck at a level that we can hardly peddle at–not long enough to charge the battery. Any solution?
ANSWER : Hello.

You may need to pull the battery out and take it to a re-conditioner. In Australia a company called battery world can test the battery, re-condition or replace if needed.
if there is a way of using a external charger on it this may give you enough power to adjust the pedal resistance, be sure to disconnect the battery from the bike before charging and use the correct type of charger for that batteries voltage and chemistry
You can try manually releasing the pedal pressure by removing the wheel and releasing the resistance wheel or belt. With out a model type I do not know exactly how to do this, although it is fairly easy to see when the main wheel is off the bike.

I hope this points you in the right direction.

Regards
GM

My 1988 honda fourtrax 300 keeps shutting off after about 30 minutes of riding. It bogs down then it shuts off it doesn’t just shut right off. I will then have to wait about 5 minutes to start it up again. It seems like when it gets hot it does that. What could it be?
ANSWER : It’s possible that you are getting a vacuum in your gas tank because the cap isn’t vented. This can cause this exact condition.

I have a 2007 Polaris Ranger 700 XP its not charging the battery. I have run it the same way since it was new. I have to charge the battery every few days. Please help!

Thank you.

ANSWER : The voltage regulator keeps the battery charged so it could be bad but first, …
1st Make sure your battery terminals are clean and tight, loose or corroded terminals will keep it from charging.
2nd make sure the voltage regulator is plugged in, sometimes a vibration, a crash or sudden stop will cause a loose connection there.
3rd start the engine, put a voltmeter on the battery, at an idle it should read 12.50 – 13.0 Volts
if anything under 12.50, means the battery is not being charged at an idle.
rev up the motor to at least 2000-3000 rpm and see if the volatage increases. it shouldn’t go any higher than 14.9 volts or its over charging.

If terminals are clean and tight and you get a good reading (12.5 – 14.9 volts).
Then your battery is bad.
if you dont get those readings then the voltage regulator is bad.

If voltage regulator is bad, you can replace it your self, it takes a 10mm socket to undo 2 bolts and just unplug it, plug the new one in and screw the 2 bolts in .
test it.

ride it, your done.
Have a good one
