3. Sent target speed to TDC.
4. Turned scope/TBT to expected shoot bearing.
5. Sent shoot AOB (90) to TDC.*
6. Sent test range/bearing to TDC.**
7. Opened aft tubes.
8. Led target (crosshairs on the bow) as it approached 90 AOB.
9. Sent final bearing at 90 AOB and fired as juicy parts passed crosshairs!
* If AOB is not sent to TDC independant of range/bearing, updates will likely not be correct.
** The test range/bearing should be a WAG of what you expect to see when the target reaches 90 AOB. That way, you can compare the indications on the TDC ... they should reflect a fairly accurate setup.

Oh no doubt it works. Most of the time I've hit stuff with it; other times the fish swim off in some strange direction. I assume in those cases it's because it wasn't enough to double-click one new data entry, I needed to d-click for 2 or more of the entries.
The WAG comment, I would agree with the distance input being close (+-200 or so), the AoB I would say should be somewere in the ballpark +-30° but it was this input that I was saving for a last refinement "Mark" bearing command with a double-click send info.
