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 3,000 
meters. In good conditions a highly reflective target can be 
measured up to 4,000 meters.

 

Target reflectivity depends on its color, surface finish, size, 
shape, position in relation to the laser beam, etc. Bright target 
colors are more reflective than dark ones. A polished surface is 
more reflective than a rough one. Larger targets reflect better 
than small ones. Ranging a target perpendicular to the laser beam 
provides better results than the one positioned under a sharp 
angle to the beam. 
Weather conditions that influence air transparency (rain, fog, 
snow, mist) reduce maximum range. Bright sunny days will 
reduce performance as well, as IR sun radiation may cover 
reflected laser pulses.  
While the unit will measure through many glass types, measuring 
through glass may reduce accuracy and range.  

Modules can be fully controlled via RS-232 connector and/or 
with buttons on remote control. The control procedures are 
identical and interchangeable.
