range. (Fig. 4) Always make sure there are no
obstacles in the way of the ultrasonic waves. (Fig.
5/8) Soft or uneven surfaces (e.g. curtains, carpets)
can have an unfavourable influence on the
measurement.
For measurements over larger distances (10 - 15 m)
a target surface of at least 3 x 3 m is required. (Fig.

Make sure that there are no other ultrasonic sources
in the vicinity.
Ultrasonic waves do not penetrate through glass or
plastic!
In case of major changes in temperature you should
allow your device half an hour to acclimatize before
you start a new measurement.
Fluctuations in air pressure or humidity and the
sound of wind or similar sources of noise can have
an unfavourable influence on measurements.
