A distance measuring system, which comprises a control arithmetic unit1, a light emitting unit2for emitting a measuring light beam and a photodetection unit3for receiving a reflection light beam from an object to be measured, the system being used for measuring a distance by receiving the reflection light beam from the object to be measured, wherein the control arithmetic unit compares a signal based on the photodetection amount of the reflection light from the object to be measured as well as a result of the distance measurement with reference data prestored in the control arithmetic unit relating to the reflection of the object to be measured, and judges whether the object to be measured is a prism or a natural object based on a result of the comparison.

1. A distance measuring system for measuring distance by receiving a reflection light beam from an object to be measured, comprising a control arithmetric unit, a storage unit, a light emitting unit for emitting a measuring light beam, a photodetection unit for receiving said reflection light beam from said object to be measured and for issuing a signal based on a photodetection amount of said reflection light beam, a light amount adjuster for adjusting an amount of light entering said photodetection unit, a mode changing switch, and a display unit for displaying the result of a calculation of said arithmetic unit, wherein said mode changing switch selects whether said object to be measured is a prism or a natural object, said storage unit prestores a photodetection amount of a reflection light beam from the prism according to the distance and a photodetection amount of a reflection light beam from the natural object according to the distance, said light amount adjuster adjusts the photodetection amount of said reflection light beam received by said photodetection unit at an approximately constant amount and obtains an amount of the reflection light beam based on the result of the adjustment, said control arithmetic unit compares the obtained amount of the reflection light beans and the photodetection amount of said reflection light beam from said prism or said natural object that is prestored in said storage unit, and judges whether said object to be measured is the selected object to be measured based on the result of the comparison, and said display unit displays the result of said judgment by said control arithmetic unit. 2. A distance measuring system according to claim 1, wherein said light amount adjuster comprises a density filter for adjusting said photodetection amount of said reflection light beam from said object to be measured, said storage unit prestores an adjusting position of said density filter according to the distance to the prism and to the natural object, and said object to be measured is judged based on the adjusting position of said density filter. 3. A distance measuring system according to claim 1, wherein data is obtained by associating the photodetection amount of said photodetection emit before the light amount adjustment with the measurement distance, and the data is stored as reference data for judging said object to be measured. 4. A distance measuring system according to claim 1, wherein said mode changing switch selects a prism mode for using said prism as said object to be measured and a non-prism mode for using said natural object as said object to be measured based on the result of judgment of said display unit. 5. A distance measuring system according to claim 3, wherein said reference data relating to the reflection of said object to be measured contains change of said photodetection amount due to weather conditions as a tolerance value. 6. A distance measuring system according to claim 4, wherein there are provided at least a prism measurement mode and a non-prism measurement mode, and when said prism mode is selected, said distance is displayed on said display unit only when said object to be measured is judged as a prism, and a warning that collimation in not performed is displayed on said display unit when said object to be measured is not judged as a prism. 7. A distance measuring system according to claim 4, wherein photodetection sensitivity can be automatically changed over according to said photodetection amount of said reflection light beam from said object to be measured, the light amount is adjusted by the light amount adjuster, it is judged whether said object to be measured is she selected object to be measured according to said photodetection amount, and the result of she judgment is displayed on said display unit.
