Target selection logic
On its way towards the target the laser beam may be
reflected from various objects, thus decreasing ranging
accuracy. The smaller, the farther, and the less reflective
is the target – the higher is the possibility of obtaining an
incorrect measurement.
To improve accuracy the unit has a built-in target
selection logic that allows user the option of choosing
which target to range: the nearest (‘first’), the farthest
(‘last’), or the most reflective (‘auto’).
This mechanism helps selecting the target when ranging
from behind the bushes, wires, through the falling snow,
or in similar conditions. Furthermore, it enables ranging a
target in front of a bigger object, such as a wire in front of
the wall.
NOTE:
Even with target selection logic the unit may not
always be able to range the desired target as its
reflectivity may be too low to produce enough laser beam
reflections for statistically reliable calculation.
Individual Measurement and Scanning regimes
The unit can operate in two methods: (1)
Individual
Measurement
and (2)
Scanning
. In
Individual
Measurement
method the unit performs single
measurement when Action button is pressed shortly, in
