Scan mode

The equipment can also be used to measure in constant operation (scan
mode). If the range finder button (Fig. 1/6) is pressed for longer than approx.
3 seconds, the equipment switches to scan mode and takes measurements
continuously. This can then be seen from the range display, which emits new
measuring values approx. every 1.5 seconds. The scan mode is helpful for
measuring small or moving targets.
Note: Scan mode switches off automatically after approx. 20 seconds in order
to save the battery in case the button is pressed accidentally.

Range estimation accuracy

The range finder is accurate to +/– 1 metre /yard. The maximum range accord-
ing to the technical specifications is achieved in favourable environmental
conditions.
The following environmental factors affect the range:
Atmospheric
condition
Brightness
Object colour
Angle to the object
Object structure
Ballistic Information System BIS
For hunting, the equipment has a ballistic information system BIS
which it is possible to display the required correction value for the aiming
point depending on the estimated range.
Note: The so-called point of impact shows how many centimetres or inches
higher or lower than at target range the shot will impact at the measured
distance. The correction value for the aiming point is the correction required
in order to shoot back on target.
