Target selection logic
On its way towards the target laser beam may reflect from
various objects, thus decreasing ranging accuracy. The
smaller, the farther, and the less reflective is the target – the
higher is the possibility of obtaining an incorrect
measurement.
To improve accuracy the unit has a built-in target selection
logic that allows choosing which target to range: the nearest
(‘first’), the farthest (‘last’), or the most reflective (‘auto’).
This mechanism helps selecting the target when ranging from
behind the bushes, wires, through the falling snow, or in
similar conditions. Similarly it enables ranging a target in
front of a bigger object, such as a wire in front of the wall.
Note:
Even with target selection logic the unit may not
always be able to range the desired target as its reflectivity
may be too low to produce enough laser beam reflections for
statistically reliable calculation. A warning will be displayed
if result is not statistically reliable. See more about target
reflectivity in the

Individual Measurement and Scanning regimes
The unit can operate in two regimes: (1)
Individual
Measurement
and (2)
Scanning
. In the
Individual
Measurement
regime the unit performs single measurement
when the
A button is pressed shortly, in
Scanning
regime the
unit repeatedly measures and displays results every second
while the
A button is pressed.
