The Laser Technology, Inc. Impulse is a light-weight, hand-held laser ranging instrument that allows you to quickly
and conveniently measure distances, heights, and vertical angles. The Impulse uses sensors to measure distances
and vertical angles, and menu-driven software to convert sensor readings to meaningful measurements.
The Impulse can be held easily in one hand and features simple three-finger operation: you execute most primary
operations simply by sighting your target through the scope and briefly pressing one of three buttons conveniently
located at your fingertips.
This manual covers the options, characteristics, and operation of these Impulse models: Impulse 200, Impulse
200LR, Impulse 100, and Impulse 100LR. Your particular Impulse may not have all the options described.

The LR (“long range”) models function identically to a standard Impulse, but provide
longer ranging capability to non-cooperative targets.
