When the Rangefinder is off the LCD is blank. To activate it press and hold A button (6, Fig. 1) for half a second. At start the unit comes into Ready to Measure mode indicated by the word ‘READY’...
Target reflectivity depends on its color, surface finish, size, shape, position in relation to the laser beam, etc. Bright target colors are more reflective than darks. A polished surface is more reflective than a rough one. Larger targets reflect better than small ones.

KMH/MPH: units of speed measurement: km/hour or miles/hour (3, Fig.3) (LRM 1500SPD only). Shape of the reticle: cross shape or rectangular shape (2, Fig.3). rEC1: Data Recall mode. It returns results of the last 10 measurements on the display. Measurement results are saved in on-board memory. When you enter the Data Recall mode, first measurement set number rEc 1 (display name:...
Additional display information Distance measuring procedure includes instant statistical processing of the package of single measuring sessions. If there is more than one measured target in the field of view, the embedded software estimates the most probable one by calculating the number of reflected pulses multiplied by the target statistical weight.
6. STORAGE AND MAINTENANCE The unit is a sophisticated precision optical instrument equipped with laser and electronics. Therefore, it should be handled with due care. Keep away from direct sunlight. Avoid impacts, jolts, dust, moisture, and sharp changes of temperature.
7. TROUBLESHOOTING The ranging does not work. The display is transparent. Check the charge of the battery. Replace it if it is weak. Black dots are visible on LCD. Liquid Crystal Display may have small black dots, scratches and other blemishes inherited from the manufacturing process. These flaws are strictly regulated by number, area and location and do not degrade the product's measurement capabilities.
