2. Description
2. Description
The distance is determined along an emitted laser beam up to the surface where the laser beam is reflected. The red laser spot clearly identifies the target from which the measurement is taken.
The measuring range depends on the reflectivity and the surface structure of the target surface.
2.1 Intended use
The range meter is designed for the:
–Measurement of distances
–Calculation of areas, volumes and distances
–Addition and subtraction of distances
–Operation and storage in the specified temperatures
2.2 Items supplied
1PD 30 laser range meter
1PDA 60 hand strap
2Type AA batteries
1 soft pouch
1 Operating instructions
2.3 Measuring principle
The range meter emits a visible laser beam with measuring waves, which are reflected returning with a phase shift. The phase shift is used to determine the distance.
This measuring principle permits highly accurate and reliable distance measurements to objects without special reflectors.

* These are not laser safety glasses and do not protect the eyes from laser radiation. The laser visibility glasses restrict colour vision. Therefore these are not permitted to be worn by a person driving on a public road, and must not be used look straight into the sun.
3.1 PDA 50 target plate
The PDA 50 target plate is made of durable plastic with a special reflective coating. In poor light conditions, it is advisable to use the target plate for distances above 10 m (30 ft).
- NOTE -
–For reliable distance measurements the laser beam should be perpendicular to the target plate whenever possible. If this not the case, the laser spot on the target plate may not be in the same plane as the target point and the distance measured will be incorrect.
–For very accurate measurements using the target plate, 1.2 mm (1/20 inch) should be added to the measured distances.
3.2 PDA 80 / 81 charging kits
The PDA 80 and PDA 81 charging kits enables the use of the range meters with rechargeable cells. The battery charging time takes approx.12 hours for empty cells. However, sufficient current is charged within the first 15 minutes – for 150 - 200 measurements.
Please also refer to the description of battery charging in section 6. Getting started.

3.3 PDAW 80-1 mains adaptor
The mains adaptor is an integral part of the charging kit. It is equipped with a two pin plug. The mains adaptor transforms the power supply from alternating current to direct current which is used to charge the batteries. The mains adaptor automatically adjusts itself to suit an AC voltage between 100 - 240 V and 50 - 60 Hz. The mains adaptor has been specially designed to supply current to the charging adaptor.
- NOTE -
Battery chargers or mains adaptors with other voltage outputs, such as those for mobile phones, may not be used. Use of other battery chargers or mains adaptors may damage the range meter.
3.4 PDAW 80/81-2 car battery plug
The car battery plug is an integral part of the PDA 80/81 charging kit. It can be inserted into a vehicle cigarette lighter or into sockets of the same design. This adaptor has a special design and transforms the 12 - 24 V direct current of a vehicle battery into a voltage suitable for the charging adaptor.
A light-emitting diode (LED) is incorporated in the adaptor to indicate correct connection for charging. An additional fuse in the adapters front section provides protection against voltage peaks.
- NOTE -
As the car battery plug has been especially designed to charge the NiMH batteries of
the PD30, it may not be replaced by other types of car battery plugs.
3.5PDAW 80/81-1 charging adaptor
The respective mains adaptor supplies current to the charging adaptor. Prior to charging the battery, the side flange connections should be carefully checked.
3.6PDAW 80/81-3 battery pack
The battery pack consists of two rechargeable, 1.2-V NiMH cells with a capacity of approx.1800 mAh. The battery pack remains in the battery compartment while being charged.
- NOTE -
–A "memory effect" is virtually non-exi- stent with this type of batteries and the charging process used. The charging process can be interrupted at any time without damaging the battery cells.
–Other brands of rechargeable batteries can be used. It must be ensured, however, that, as far as possible, batteries have a similar capacity of approx.
1800 mAh.
3.7 PDAW 81-1 mains adaptor
This mains adaptor PDAW 81-1 is virtually identical to the PDAW 80-1 mains adaptor. The only difference is the type of mains plugs which are interchangeable plugs.
3.8 PA 970 laser visibility glasses
The laser visibility glasses clearly improve the visibility of the laser beam (spot)
