I purchased my SkyTrak and protective case last June. I already had a mat that I had been using. I adjusted the case and had very few read problems.
I used the SkyTrak quite a bit the first month, but since it was the middle of our golf season in Minnesota, I didn't use it much the rest of the year.
Once I started to use the SkyTrak again, I continued to have issues reading my shots. I thought it was the ball, so changed the Truvis red (which improved the reads). Put a black background since I have a car right behind the hitting area (thought the license plate or bumper might cause no reads). Things improved by still had more than I remembered when first using the unit.
In December I decided to purchase a Fiberbuilt FlightDeck, which I "inserted" in my mat. The FlightDeck surface is a touch higher than my mat.
Adjusted the case to what I thought was the correct level. Seemed pretty good, but a few more no reads than I had been getting.
The Fiberbuilt mat is a different surface than my older mat and I guess I didn't the SkyTrak as high as I needed.
Yesterday, I couldn't get the SkyTrak to read. I spend the better part of an hour just messing around trying to figure it out.
I think I finally found the SkyTrak needed to be about the surface of the Fiberbuilt to correctly trigger the cameras. Once I go the unit the correct height, I was able to hit balls for almost an hour with every shot being read.
Seems to me that being a little higher than the hitting surface is better.Not sure if that is true or not, but it seemed to help my issue.
I am hoping this helps others...
