Thermal imagers Quantum XD are equipped with a stadiametric
rangefinder which allows the user to estimate approximate distance to an
object with known size.
Press and hold down the controller

for two seconds to enter the
menu.
Rotate the controller to select menu option . Press the controller.
Press the controller to select one of the
reference objects, whose sizes are roughly
equal to the size of the actual object under
measurement:
Reference object “
Hare
” – height 0.3m
Reference object “
Wild hog
” – height 0
.
7m
Reference object “
Deer
” – height 1
.
7m
Note: to switch between units of measurements – metres or yards – please
refer to the menu option “Selection of units of measurement”.
To activate the rangefinder, press the controller until you see on the
display: two horizontal lines for measurement, readings of measured
distance and icon of selected reference object (see Pic.).
Locate the lower fixed line under the observed object and, while
rotating
the controller, move the upper line relative to the lower fixed line
until
the observed object fully fits between the two lines. The distance to
the
observed object is automatically recalculated as you move the
upper
line.
If the measurement does not take place within 2-3 seconds,
information disappears from the display. When rotating the controller
again, distance measuring mode re-activates.
