5.1. Preparing the Device for Operation
• Unbolt a screw and open battery compartment cover at the
bottom of the device.
• Insert one 9V battery (sold separately) into the battery
compartment observing correct polarity.
• Close up the battery compartment cover, tighten the screw.
After changing the battery, it is recommended to run the CL
(CLEAR) mode (refer mode selection procedure).
• Take off lens caps
• Look through the eyepieces (1) (fig. 1).
• Adjust interpupilary distance by turning lever (9) (fig. 2)
until two images converge into one
• Make dioptric correction individually for each eye by
rotating rubber rings (4) (fig. 2) of each eyepiece
Now your unit is ready for operation as a conventional 7x
binocular (passive state).
5.2. Distance Measuring Procedure
a. Measuring state
When the Rangefinder is in the passive, low power state, the
LCD Display is blank (transparent).
Pressing any of the operating buttons activates the System and
the Display. Initially the System always assumes READY mode
of operation and word READY appears on the Display.
Pressing Action button (6) (fig. 1) at this point triggers a distance
measuring session, and the result will be displayed in numerical
form (4) (fig. 3) (if measurement is unsuccessful then four dashes
‘----‘ will appear in the numerical area). Please note that the target
must be over 20m away.
If the Action button (6) is held (pressed) for more than 3 seconds
the System automatically enters SCANNING mode. This feature
is not available on all versions.
At this mode the System repetitively performs distance measuring
and displaying. The time interval between measurements is
approximately 1 second.
The maximum measuring range for most objects will be 1512m.
The maximum measured distance will vary greatly depending on
the reflectivity of the target, weather conditions and more.
Target reflectivity depends on its color, surface finish, shape etc.
Bright colors are more reflective than darks. A polished surface is
more reflective than a rough one. Larger targets are easier for
distance measuring. Measuring a target faced at 90
o
(perpendicular
to the laser beams path) provides optimal results.
Bad weather conditions (rain, fog, snow, mist) will reduce the
maximum measured range.
Bright sunny days will reduce performance as well
While the unit will work through many glass types, measuring through
glass will affect the results.
