Measurement Modes Explained
Standard Mode
This mode measures direct distance to target with accuracy to the nearest yard/meter. The continuous scanning feature allows you to hold the POWER button and continuously scan while updating measured values, enabling smooth tracking of changing distances.
Rain Mode
In this mode, the rangefinder ignores interference caused by rain and provides accurate direct distance measurement to the target. The horizontal distance is displayed on the bottom line of the display, ensuring reliable readings even in adverse weather conditions.
Hunting Mode
Hunting mode suppresses interference caused by tall grass or bushes between you and the target, making it ideal for measuring distance to game moving through dense vegetation. Features include:
- Perfect for measuring distance to wildlife in thick cover
- Horizontal distance displayed on bottom display line
- Activation indicated by mode icon surrounded by a circle
Horizontal Distance Mode ("HD")
This mode measures the actual **horizontal distance to target**, particularly useful for ballistic calculations when shooting. Key benefits:
- Direct distance shown on top display line
- Horizontal component shown on bottom display line
- Essential for uphill/downhill shooting, air rifles with curved trajectory, or elevated archery positions
Angle Mode
Measures slope angle with accuracy to one-tenth of a degree:
- Direct distance displayed on top line
- Slope angle shown on bottom display line
- When aiming downhill, a "-" symbol appears next to the angle value
