6 DISTANCE MEASUREMENT
6-2 Distance Measurement
The R-300 series has two distance measurement modes of primary MEAS and
second MEAS. Pressing the [F1][MEAS] one time goes to MEAS and twice goes
to second MEAS.
You can freely select and allocate your desired measurement mode in primary
MEAS and second MEAS by the Initial Setting 2. The “MEASURE SHOT” is set
at primary MEAS and “TRACK CONT” is set at second MEAS as a Factory
default setting.
● MEASURE SHOT means the Distance measurement by the Shot mode.
● MEASURE CONT means the Distance measurement by the Continuous
mode.
● TRACK SHOT means the Fast distance measurement by the Shot mode.
● TRACK CONT means the Fast distance measurement by the Continuous
mode.
Confirm the target Constant before beginning the distance measurement.
Example: “MEASURE SHOT” at primary MEAS (Factory default setting)
Collimate the telescope at a Target and press
the [F1] [MEAS] once to start measuring
the distance.
Once distance measurement has been
started, the distance measurement mark
remains displayed.
Upon reception of a reflected light from the
Target, the instrument beeps and displays the
✽ mark to start the Shot measurement automatically.
● If the instrument is in mode B, press the [F5][MODE] to switch to mode A and
press [F1] [MEAS].
● Pressing the [F1][MEAS] after collimating the telescope at the prism starts
Shot distance measurement with the “MEAS” text blinking. Distance
measurement is completed and the “MEAS” text stops blinking the moment
the distance measured by Shot measurement is displayed. During Continuous
measurement, the “MEAS” text keeps on blinking. Pressing the [F1][MEAS]
again terminates both distance measurement and blinking the “MEAS” text.
● Pressing [F4] [DISP] cycles through the sets of display items:
“H.angle/H.dst./V.dst.”, “H.angle/V.angle/S.dst.”, and
“H.angle/V.angle/H.dst./S.dst./V.dst.”
● Pressing the [ESC] or [F2][TARGET] or [F5][MODE] during distance
measurement stops it.
