Use a reflector to increase measurement range during daylight or if the target has poor reflection properties.
The absolute accuracy of distance measurement to objects with sufficiently reflective surfaces at a distance up to 10 m is + 1,0 mm/m.
The maximum permissible accuracy of distance measurement to objects with sufficiently reflective surfaces at a distance up to 150 m is ‡ (1,0 mm + 0,05 mm/m).
The maximum permissible accuracy of distance measurement to objects with insufficiently reflective surfaces or intense sunlight is ‡ (1,0 mm + 0,15 mm/m).

MEASUREMENTS

Single distance measurement

Continuous measurement (tracking)

Stake out

Press and hold to increase the speed.

Digital viewfinder

At a distance of less than 20 m laser dot can be out of the cross hair on the display. It is calibrated to distances over 20m and will be exactly in the center in the range of 20m-150m, so, it helps to aim at the object.

Addition/Subtraction

CALCULATIONS

Area Rectangle area

Wall surface

Triangle area

Circle area

Trapezoid area
Note
one of the trapezoid sides must be perpendicular to the base to calculate the area.

Volume

Cube volume

Cylinder volume

Cone volume

Addition/subtraction of areas/volumes

Calculation with additional measurements
Calculation of distance with 2 additional measurements (cathetus calculation – Pythagoras 1)

Calculation of distance with 3 additional measurements
(sum of catheters – Pythagoras 2)

Calculation of distance by 3 additional measurements
(subtraction of 2 catheters – Pythagoras 3)

Calculation with tilt sensor

Calculation of ground distance

Calculation of height

Calculation of roof pitch and length

Calculation of tilted objects
Note: the device must be in the same vertical plane as the 2 measured points. The plane is defined by the line between 2 points.

Point-to-point measurement

Calculation of object area (AreaCam)
Note: to get more accurate measuring results place the device perpendicular to the horizontal center line of the object. The surface of the object must be perfectly flat on the vertical plane. Aim the laser beam to the center of the horizontal center line of the object.
