The laser range finder is generally used indoors, and it is recommended not to use the laser range finder outdoors. In harsh environments such as: too strong sunlight interferes with the laser, which will cause the laser red point to be unclear, and the measurement accuracy will drop significantly; the ambient temperature fluctuates too much, and the reflection effect of the reflective surface is weak; there are foreign objects in the objective lens or laser tube Obstruction; the measurement target is not clear, such as water surface, glass, mirror surface, laser jitter during measurement, etc.; when the battery power is insufficient, the measurement result will also have a large error.

Please refer to the table below for general faults and troubleshooting methods encountered during use:
InformationReasonSolution
The battery symbol flashesbattery voltage is too lowplease charge
Unable to measure displayLaser reflection signal is too weak
(e.g. black test surface)
