dIstance MeasureMent
To measure the distance to an object, it must be
perfectly targeted. To do this, activate the target mark
by pressing the main button (2) once. The target mark
remains lit for about 4 seconds after letting the main
button go. If the button is kept pressed, the target
mark remains lit.
While the target mark is lit, aim the LEIca PINmaS-
TEr at the object and press the main button a sec ond
time; the distance is then measured and displayed. The
target mark disappears briefly during the
measurement. a new measurement can be made at
any time, as long as the target mark is lit, by pressing
the main button once again. If the object is less than
98
10 m/11yds away, out of range, or does not provide
enough reflection, then _ _ _ appears on the display.
The LEIca PINmaSTEr switches itself off as soon as
the display disappears.
scan Mode
With the LEIca PINmaSTEr, continuous measure-
ments can also be made: If the main button (2) is held
down the second time it is pressed, the unit switches
to scan mode after approx. 0.5 seconds and then
takes continuous measurements. This is indicated by
the changing display: a new measured value is produ-
ced around every 0.5 seconds.
Scan mode is particularly practical when measuring to
flagsticks or other smaller targets.
note:
In scan mode, due to the constant measurements,
the power consumption is greater than for single
measurements.
