DISTANCE MEASURING
8
Set button (4)
The range can be displayed either in metres or in yards, as desired. After pressing the button for distance
measuring (3) a ‘m’ for meter or ‘y’ for yards is displayed next to the target marker.
To change the setting, use the SET button (4): An extended press of the button for over 3 seconds will
cause the display to start to flash and the setting to then change every time the SET button is pressed.
All settings preset for the 'm' represent range displays in metres; all settings preset for the 'y' represent
range displays in yards. After 5 seconds without pressing the SET button the respective setting is saved
automatically.
Scan mode
The STEINER M830r LRF Laser rangefinder binocular can also be used to measure in constant operation
(scan mode). The scan mode is particularly helpful for measuring small or moving targets. If the button for
measuring distance (3) is pressed for longer than approx. 3 seconds, the binocular switches to scan mode
and then takes measurements continuously. This can then be identified from the range display which emits
new measuring values approx. every 1.5 seconds.
Notes:
Scan mode consumes more power than individual metering due to the constant metering. Scan mode
switches off automatically after approx. 20 seconds in order to save the battery in case the button is pressed
accidentally.
