    Abstract: An electro-optical distance meter measures an electrical noise signal in a state where a received light amount adjusting means completely blocks light and measure a distance-measuring signal under a proper state of the adjusting means to calculate a distance by subtracting the electrical noise signal and an optical noise signal from the distance-measuring signal. The distance meter measures a first noise signal in a state where the adjusting means completely blocks light with a noise measuring jig having a unique jig-derived noise signal attached and a second noise signal in a state where the adjusting means transmits light most with the noise measuring jig attached, to calculate the optical noise signal by subtracting the first noise signal and the jig-derived noise signal from the second noise signal. The noise measuring jig is detachably attached to the electro-optical distance meter and removes reflected light entering the light receiving element when attached.
