Distance measurement
To measure the distance to an object, it must be
perfectly targeted. To do this, activate the target
mark by pressing the release button (3) once.
The target mark remains lit for about 4 seconds
after letting the release 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 at the object and press the release
button a second time; the distance is then meas-
ured and displayed. The target mark disappears
briefly during the measurement. A new measure-
ment can be made at any time, as long as the
target mark is lit, by pressing the release button
once again. If the object is less than 10 m/11 yds
away, out of range, or does not provide enough
reflection, then
"- - -" appears on the display. The Leica Range-
master CRF switches itself off as soon as the
display disappears.
Scan mode
With the Leica Rangemaster CRF, continuous
measurements can also be made: If the release
button (3) is held down the second time it is
pressed, the unit switches to scan mode after
approx. 0.5 seconds and then takes continuous
measurements. This is indicated by the changing
display: a new measured value is produced
around every 0.5 seconds.
Scan mode is particularly practical when meas-
uring to smaller and moving targets.
Note:
Due to the constant measurements, the power
consumption is greater in scan mode than for
single measurements.
