  • Use a reflective plate to increase the measurement range during daylight or if the target has poor reflection properties.
  • Accuracy can decrease in unfavorable conditions, such as intense sunshine or when measurements are made against glossy or transparent surfaces, moving objects, objects with rough surface.

In unfavorable conditions or when measured distance is over 100 m the maximum permissible accuracy is calculated in the following way:

  • ± (Y + 0,25хDх10-3) mm, where
  • D (mm) – measured distance
  • Y (mm) – permissible accuracy according to technical data.
