The i-MTTS ARENA is a wireless electronic target system for laser based simulative firearm training. Used with Laser
Ammo SureStrikeTM laser cartridges, either visible (Red) or Invisible (IR), inserted in double action pistols, or Laser
Ammo recoil enabled training firearms.
Using wireless communication, the set of targets will allow you to perform multi-target shooting drills to create a
customized training session or may be used as standalone targets.
The System Controller is a control and display unit for the i-MTTS targets, acting both as a remote control and
a numeric display for the user’s performance. Paired together to create the I-MTTS ARENA, the most advanced
home electronic targeting system for practicing home defense, IPSC, tactical, or even combat training for law
enforcement, while developing target recognition, speed, firing accuracy and ‘shoot/no-shoot’ skills.
The I-MTTS ARENA offers options that are not available in any other home electronic target training system.
The i-MTTS targets and the System Controller are available together or separately. This user guide covers both
targets and system controller units.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS:
1. This system is intended for use with up to 10 targets working together. Using more than 10 targets might
affect the system reliability and reaction time.
2. Some environmental settings may affect the system reliability. For example: placing devices too far apart,
having obstacles between any two targets, placing any targets too close to the floor.
3. Direct sunlight or other very bright light source might affect the targets as well.
4. Low battery power indicated by weak or different light color from indication LED. Buzzer and other indication
lights will also be weaker as battery power drops.
