* Using a target plate will increase the measuring distance during daytime in case of
targets with poor reflective characteristics
** Under good conditions (target surface exhibits favourable properties, room tempera-
ture) up to 10 m (33 ft). Deviations of up to ± 0.15 mm/ m (0.0059 in/3.3 ft) may occur
for distances over 10 m (33 ft) under less favourable conditions, for example strong
sunlight, poorly reflecting targets, high variations in temperature.
