Distance Measurement 

It is used to measure the horizontal distance between the instrument and the target point through 
the reticle in the telescope. 

Through the reticle (up / down / left / right) in the telescope to measure the distance between the 
target and the instrument. 

To measure the distance, do the following: 

1.  Place the instrument above point A and level up. 
2.  Place the levelling staff on point B. 
3.  Aim on the levelling staff and read the distance L. 

L = Upper distance line - Lower distance line
