What are the simple methods of laser range finder to measure distance
one, measurement mode
Distance can be measured using two different measurement modes, single measurement and continuous measurement. Continuous measurement is used to determine a given distance or length, also in difficult-to-reach locations (e.g. at corners, edges or niches, etc.).
1. Single measurement
If the rangefinder is off, it can be switched on by pressing the ON/OFF button or the MEASURE button. If the rangefinder is turned on by pressing the "Measure" button, the laser is also enabled, so the steps described below can be omitted
1.1. Turn on the laser by pressing the "Measure" button.
1.2. Aim the rangefinder at the target and press the "Measure" button.
The measured distance will be displayed in the result line within 1 second.
2. Continuous measurement (tracking)
During continuous measurement, the distance is updated in the result line at a rate of approximately 6 -10 measurements per second. The measurement rate depends on the reflectivity of the target surface. If the beep is enabled, continuous measurements are signaled by a beep approx. 2 -3 times per second.
2.1. Press and hold the "Measurement" button for about 2 seconds to start the continuous measurement mode.
2.2. The measurement can be stopped by pressing the "Measurement" button again.
2.3. The last valid measured value will then be shown in the result line of the display.
two, measuring range
1. Increased measuring range: The measuring range of the rangefinder is usually increased when measuring in dark environments (dawn or evening) and when the target and/or the rangefinder are in the shadow of bright light. Using a target board will also increase the measuring range of the rangefinder.
2. Reduced measurement range: The measurement range may be reduced in bright conditions, such as when working in bright sunlight or under extremely strong lighting. The measuring range of the rangefinder may be reduced when measuring through glass or when objects are in the path of the laser beam.
The measuring range of the rangefinder may be reduced when measuring on green, blue or black matte surfaces, or on wet or shiny surfaces.
