DISTANCE MEASUREMENT
To measure the distance to an object, it must be per-
fectly 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 RANGE-
MASTER CRF 1000 at the object and press the main
button a second 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 10 m/11 yds away, out of
range, or not sufficiently reflective, _ _ _ appears in
the display.
The LEICA RANGEMASTER CRF 1000 switches itself
off as soon as the display disappears.
SCAN MODE
The LEICA RANGEMASTER CRF 1000 can also be used
for continuous measurements: Holding down the main
button (2) the second time it is pressed switches the
unit to scan mode after around 0.5 seconds and it then
performs continuous measurements. This is indicated by
the changing display: a new measured value is produced
around every 0.5 seconds.
Scan mode is particularly useful when measuring the
range to small or moving targets.
Note:
In scan mode, due to the constant measurements,
the power consumption is greater than for single
measurements.
