iii IMPORTANT INFORMATION Read prior to activation You have ju st purchased a sophisticated el ectro-opti cal device that emits i nvisible laser radiation. To operate it properly, please, read this manual carefully. • NEVER direct laser beam at the eyes of pe ople or animals • NEVER aim the unit at the Sun or bright so urces of lig ht • NEVER[...]

iv • Never aim the unit at highly re flective objects like mirrors and retroreflective surfaces, wh ich are in close proxim ity to the laser rangefinder. This can lead to the permanent damage of the photoreceive r in corporated int o the device.[...]

10 • A 9V Lithium non-magnetic battery guarantees over 5,000 shot s at room temperature. It is recomm ended for the field usage. In ad dition, this battery does no t influence the internal com pass. Note: Metal housing of t he battery may degrade the compass accuracy. Measurement procedure The LRB 3000PRO operational procedures are design to allo[...]

11 Factors affecti ng measuring distance Though ma ximum measurem ent distance depends on t arget reflectivity, we ather condi tions and other condit ions, for m ost targets the unit will provide accurate rang ing for up to 2,500 meters. Under good conditions a large size targ et can be measured up to 3,000 meters. Target reflectivity depends on it[...]

12 smaller, the farther, and the le ss reflective is the target – the higher is the possibility of obtainin g an incorrect measurement. To improve accuracy the unit has a built-in target selection logic that allows choosing which target to range : the nearest (‘first’), the far thest (‘last’), or the m ost reflective (‘aut o’). This m[...]

13 parameters are measured in t he Scanni ng regim e though both will be quickly disp layed, the second one may be difficult to register by eye. Nevertheless a ll data is recorded and may be recalled (see Data Recall mode for d etails.) Operation and service modes Pressing Mode button (3, Fig.1) in Ready mode switches the unit between modes of ope [...]

15 Accuracy correction If the System produces som e measurement errors that lie beyond unit specification , it may be an indication that unit requires calibration similar to one condu cted at production level. To do accuracy correction, please sele ct Corr from CAL men u. Perform correc tion accordi ng to required m easurement parameters by pressin[...]

Measurement results are save d in on-board memory in sets depending on the paramet ers set for measuri ng, for inst ance, if only distance is measured - the set will consist of one number, if distance and azimuth are measured – th e set will consist of t[...]

18 6. BEST MEASURING TECHNIQUE Laser range finder measures di stance by catching laser beam reflected from the target. Ever ything that i mproves reflect ion increases the measurement reliability and maximum range. 1. Use tripod when ranging remote targets. Th e longer is th e distance, the greater is the be a m shift due t o hand trem or. 2. Aim t[...]

19 7. STORAGE AN D MAINTENANCE The unit is a sophisticated precision optical instru ment equipped wi th laser and electr onics. There fore, it should be handled with due care. • Keep it away from direct sunl ight. • Avoid impacts, jolts, dust, moisture, and sharp changes of temperature. • Do not use the device at tem peratures higher than 50 [...]
