Guidelines for Correct Results
002410_002
When measurements are being made using the red laser EDM, the results can
be influenced by objects passing between the EDM and the intended target
surface. This occurs because reflectorless measurements are made to the first
surface returning sufficient energy to allow the measurement to take place.
For example, if the intended target surface is the surface of a building, but a
vehicle passes between the EDM and the target surface as the measurement
is triggered, the measurement may be made to the side of the vehicle. The
result is the distance to the vehicle, not to the surface of the building.
Very short distances can also be measured reflectorless in Prism mode to well
reflecting natural targets. The distances are corrected with the additive con-
stant defined for the active reflector.
Accurate measurements to prisms should be made in prism mode.
