Laser distance Ranger and laser pointer

General
The laser distance ranger consists of a laser transmitter and a laser receiver. The laser distance ranger determines the distance to a target by measuring the time it takes for a laser pulse to reach the target and return to the laser receiver. This time is converted to a distance, which is displayed on the screen.The laser receiver also works as a laser pointer. When the laser distance ranger is on, youwill see a laser dot approximately at the target.

Laser warning label

Cautions

• It is very important to properly adjust the focus when taking the image. Poorly focused images will not only affect the thermal image clarity but also compromise the temperature measurement accuracy. – By default, the thermal imaging camera will automatically adjust the temperature span/scale, but the temperature span/scale can also be adjusted manually if needed.
• After the camera is turned on, it is recommended to let it warm up for about 5~10 minutes for better temperature measurement.
• You may manually select the appropriate temperature range based on the inspection scene; Alternatively, you can also choose the intelligent range, which allow the camera to automatically adjust its temperature range.
• Thermal imaging cameras have a ‘clarity’ limit that depends on the detector resolution, field of view, and the distance to the target.
• Please make sure to keep the camera away from hazardous areas or energized electrical components.
• Please be mindful when inspecting the a highly reflective surface at a perpendicular angle, as you may be the primary source of reflected radiation.
• Please always select an area with high emissivity (e.g., an area with an unsmooth surface) for measurement if possible.
• Shiny objects (and objects with low emissivity) m ay appear warm or cold in the thermal imaging camera because they are reflecting radiation from its vicinity.
• Please avoid direct sunlight exposure if possible.
• Various types of faults (such as those occurring in building construction) may produce simi lar heat distribution pattern.
• Proper analysis of infrared images requires the certain expertise.
• Please make sure the battery is fully charged before storing the camera away for a long time.
• This manual may be inconsistent with the product due to product enhancements or version changes.
• In case of inconsistency, please refer to the actual product.
