Usage Recommendations
Factors affecting ranging capability and accuracy include:
Target reflectivity: Generally, the higher the target reflectivity, the better the ranging capability and the faster the response speed. For example, a target with medium reflectivity can be measured up to 1500m, while a low-reflectivity target may only be measurable up to 800m.
Measurement angle: When the laser beam is perpendicular to the target surface, the ranging capability is optimal and the response speed is fastest. Deviations from the perpendicular angle will degrade performance. Under extreme angles, the ranging capability and response speed specified in this manual cannot be guaranteed.
Measurement environment: Additional factors affecting ranging capability and response speed include sunlight intensity, the concentration of water vapor and suspended particles in the air, and the angle of deviation from direct sunlight exposure.
