Cause

7. Measuring Condition
7.1. Measuring Range

• The range is limited as per Technical Specifications.
• At night or dusk and if the target is in shadow the measuring range 

without target plate is increased.

• Use a target plate to increase the measurement range during daylight or 

if the target has poor reflection properties.

7.2. Target Surfaces

• Measuring errors can occur when measuring toward colorless liquids 

(e.g. water) or dust free glass, styrofoam or similar semi-permeable 
surfaces.

• Aiming at high gloss surfaces may deflect the laser beam and lead to 

measurement errors.

• Against non-reflective and dark surfaces the measuring time may 

increase.

7.3. Care

• Do not immerse the instrument in water.
• Wipe off dirt with a damp, soft cloth.
• Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or solutions.
• Handle the instrument as you would a telescope or camera.
