TruTargeting
The TruPulse 360
R automatically provides the best accuracy and acquisition distance to a given
target. Maximum measurement distance varies with target quality and environmental conditions.
When shooting to a non-reflective target, the maximum measurement distance is approximately
1,000 meters (3,280 feet). When shooting to a reflective target, the maximum measurement distance
is approximately 2,000 meters (6,560 feet).
When selecting a target, you should consider the following:
•
Color:
The brighter the color, the longer the range.
•
Finish:
Shiny finishes provide longer range than dull finishes.
•
Angle:
Shooting perpendicular to a target provides better range
than shooting to a target at a sharp angle.
•
Lighting Conditions:
Overcast skies increase the unit's maximum range,
and sunny skies decrease the unit's maximum range.
Target quality has an effect on the precision of measurements. A high quality target will result
in a measurement that includes one decimal place (tenths). A low quality target will result in a
measurement that is a whole number.
Examples:
•
120
feet (meters / yards) indicates a measurement was made to a low quality target.
o
Accuracy: ±1 yd (±1 m).
•
120.0
feet (meters / yards) indicates a measurement was made to a high quality target.
o
Feet are shown in half-unit increments (.0 or .5).
o
Meters and Yards are shown in tenth-unit increments (.0 - .9).
o
Accuracy: ±1 foot (±30 cm).
Only International lasers include meters.
Tilt Sensor
The integrated tilt sensor measures vertical angles that the TruPulse 360
R uses to calculate height
and elevation and to determine slope-reduced horizontal distances. The instrument held level is at 0
,
and is rotated up t90
, and down through -90
.
•
The laser is not active in the Inclination (INC) Measurement Mode.
•
Generally, the instrument measures inclination when you press
. However, in
(1) the Continuous Target Mode and (2) in the Height Measurement Mode, the
inclination reading appears in the Main Display and the display updates as your
aiming point changes as long as you press
. In these two situations, the measured
inclination is based upon the aiming point when you release
.
