Tracker 660 Product Features
The illustration below shows the main features of the Tracker 660.
The Tracker 660 has two operating buttons marked ‘O’ and ‘MODE’. Depending on
the status of the device, these buttons will power on the device, set the operating
modes and capture the measurement data.
The eyepiece is used to view the internal LCD screen and to observe the target. The
eyepiece also acts as a focusing ring and has a quarter turn of travel (+/- 5 dioptre
adjustment). Adjust the focus until both the LCD screen and the target are in focus.
Note: If the LCD screen is out of focus but the target is in focus, the target distance
is too close to be measured.
Using a Class 1M eye-safe laser beam, the Tracker 660 emits short bursts of laser
energy from the emitting lens. These are then reflected from the target and returned
to the measuring lens. The device should be held so that the emitting lens is above
the measuring lens. Note: the laser beam is not visible to the naked eye.
The battery compartment can be accessed by unscrewing the compartment lid using
a coin or large screwdriver. It houses a 3V CR2 non-rechargeable lithium battery.
The battery should provide 1500-2000 measurements under normal operating
conditions. Alternating between speed measurement and range scanning modes will
reduce battery life more quickly.
