[Deciding which Target Priority to use]
When obtaining different results from a single measuring
operation, the Nikon Laser 550A S will display the distance to the
farthest target on the LCD panel when using Distant Target Priority
mode, while First Target Priority mode will show the range to the
nearest target.
ex.) When measuring a tree standing in front of a house;
Tree
Fence
House
Distance to Target
115m
123m
128m
"115m" (distance to the tree) will be displayed in First Target Priority
mode, and "128m" (distance to the house) in Distant Target Priority
mode. First Target Priority mode, for example, has applications for
golf, while Distant Target Priority is useful when hunting in heavily
wooded areas.
9. Low battery indication
Flashing
indicates that the battery power is low and
battery should be replaced. (See "Changing Battery")
