Measuring procedure
To start the measuring procedure, remove the lens cover. Look through the eyepiece (1, Fig. 1, 2) and adjust the focus by its rotating.
When the Rangefinder is off the LCD is blank. To activate it press and hold A button (6, Fig. 1) for half a second. At start the unit comes into Ready to Measure mode indicated by the word ‘READY’ on the display visible through eyepiece. You may need to adjust the focus again so that both the display and distant objects are seen sharp through the optical system.
Pressing A button (6, Fig. 1) in Ready to Measure mode initiates measurement. The result of measurement is displayed in a form that depends on the measurement parameters (see Setup Mode).
If measurement is unsuccessful four dashes
displayed in the area (4, Fig. 3). For successful measurement the target must be at least 20 m away.
The unit will switch off automatically after 10 seconds of inactivity.
Maximum distance
Though maximum measurement distance depends on target reflectivity, weather conditions and other conditions, for most targets the unit will provide accurate ranging for up to 1200 (LRM 1200) or 1500 (LRM 1500 / 1500SPD) meters.
