The CED M2 Shooting Chronograph System, launched in 2005 is based on the original CED Millennium Chronograph, which was an industry standard for a decade before the M2.   The CED M2 Chronograph took advances in technology to an entirely new level.

New technology enabled CED to DOUBLE the operating speed of the CED M2 shooting chronograph incorporating a micro-controller that runs at 48 MHz while expanding the operation range from 50 fps to 7,000 fps.. Memory storage has been expanded 500% from 220 velocities to over 1,000 stored velocities. Stored string size can range from a single velocity up to 500 velocities and up to 500 different strings. Expanded digital chip design gives the CED M2 the ability of reading velocities at much lower light levels. On clear days, this means the ability to chronograph from early morning till almost sunset.

The keypad has been designed in calculator-style layout. In fact, we added a built-in calculator as well. Further, the CED M2 now includes a “Hi-Average” function which provides “one touch” calculation of the average of the three highest velocities in a string. This function is ideal for calculating Power Factor at IPSC & IDPA matches. With the built-in calculator, the results are easy and fast! In addition, the CED M2 Chronograph adds even more features like Single function string removal, 2 ft. FOLDING mounting bracket for ALL uses, the ability to recall specific strings from memory or to remove specific strings from memory, and a USB interface. Now it is easier than ever to connect your chronograph to your PC and download your saved data into the updated CED Data Collector software program.

The results achieved by ALL brands of Chronographs depend heavily on isolating variables which can and do effect performance. These variables include lighting, muzzle blast, location / environment of use, and weather / temperature among many others. It is important to become familiar with the effects that each of these variables might have on the results obtained and how to control them properly.
