What is the best way to hold or wear your KST1000?

For both RO and solo operation, it is important to understand where the buzzer and microphone are located on your KST1000. They are on the back of the unit in the upper half of the device. If you are acting as an RO and timing another shooter, you will have the best results if you do not cover the buzzer and mic with your hand. This means that you can face the screen toward yourself while you work. When you are wearing the KST1000 on your hip, try not to block the microphone with clothing. In more sensitive settings, you may find that your KST1000 interprets rough handling, such as quickly removing it from your belt, as a shot. You can eliminate this by making use of the mute function.
