Scan Mode; Metering Range And Accuracy - Leica GeOVID 8/10 x 42 HD Manual De Instrucciones

scan mode

The Leica Geovid HD binoculars can also be used
for continuous metering. If you hold down the
release button (5) after the second press, after
approx. 0.5s the binoculars switch to this scan
mode and then perform constant metering. This
can be identified by the changing display: A new
measured value is output approx. every 1.5s.
Scan mode is particularly practical when meter-
ing small targets.
notes:
• S can mode consumes more power than indivi-
dual metering due to the constant metering.
• S can mode automatically shuts down after
10s, to preserve the battery in case the button
is pressed accidentally.

meTering range and accuracy

The measuring system on the Leica Geovid HD
binoculars is configured in such a way that dis-
tance information displayed can be assigned to
the desired target with the maximum possible
reliability. However, if the electronic system
re ceives several signals, particularly if they are
weak, e.g. if different objects within the measure -
ment field are detected, "—-" appears to indi cate
that clear distance information cannot be pro -
vided in this case.
The measuring accuracy is up to ±1 meter/yard.
The maximum range is achieved with well reflect-
ing target objects and a visual range of 10km.
The measuring range is influenced by the follow-
ing factors:
range
colour of object
angle to object
object size
general brightness
atmospheric
conditions
object structure
With sunshine and good visibility, the ranges and
accuracies are as follows:
range
10 m/yds up to approx. 1300 m/1400yds
accuracy ±1 m/ yd up to 350m/ 380 yds
±2 m/yds up to 700 m /763 yds
±0.5 % above 700m/ 763 yds
