2.3 Intended use
is instrument is designed to measure
distances and angles. e measured value,
setting, tilt and instrument status can be viewed
on the display.
A laser beam is emitted and then sent back to
the laser distance measurement instrument
from a reflected surface. is is used to calculate
the distance. e range depends on the model of
the laser distance measurement instrument, on
reflectivity, and on the properties of the reflective
surface.
