Understanding How the TruPulse 200L Works
The TruPulse 200L consists of a laser range sensor, an integrated tilt sensor, and a digital
processor. The TruPulse 200L has three buttons that access the unit's internal software,
which controls the integrated sensors.
Laser Range Sensor
The laser range sensor emits invisible, eye safe, infrared energy pulses. The TruPulse
200L determines distance by measuring the time it takes for each pulse to travel from the
rangefinder to the target, and back. The
indicator is displayed whenever the laser is
being transmitted. The laser may be active for a maximum of 5 seconds. Once the target
is acquired or the laser has timed out, you can release the FIRE button. The TruPulse
200L has a broad spectrum of sensitivity and can work with both reflective and non-
reflective targets.
Targets
When selecting a target, you should consider the following:
•
Color:
The brighter the color, the longer the range.
•
Finish:
Shiny finishes provide longer range than dull finishes.
•
Angle:
Shooting perpendicular to a target provides better range than
shooting to a target at a sharp angle.
•
Lighting Conditions:
Overcast skies will increase the unit's maximum
range, and sunny skies will decrease the unit's maximum range.
