The detector ‘optionional’ may react to the Laser beam and further react
to the Fluorescent lamp,Site lamp, modulated light or an electric wave
(in or near the airport etc.) and so correct measurement is sometimes not
performed near these places. In these cases,please measure again after
stopping or cutting these modulated light or wave etc.
The instrument should be transported or carried carefully to avoid
impact or vibration.
8
The instrument should be stored in the carrying case and packed with
cushioning material and handled with care as ‘Fragile’.
Before use the instrument should be checked to ensure it is working
correctly.(See section on page 35 of this manual). After the instrument
has been stored for a long time or if it has suffered from an impact or
