Distance Measurements - Guidelines for Correct Results
Description
A laser distancer (EDM) is incorporated into the FlexLine instruments. In all versions,
the distance can be determined by using a visible red laser beam which emerges
coaxially from the telescope objective. There are two EDM modes:
Non-Prism
measurements
•
When a distance measurement is triggered, the EDM measures to the object
which is in the beam path at that moment. If a temporary obstruction, for
example a passing vehicle, heavy rain, fog or snow is between the instrument and
the point to be measured, the EDM may measure to the obstruction.
•
Be sure that the laser beam is not reflected by anything close to the line of sight,
for example highly reflective objects.
