The transmission unit is arranged in the housing and is configured to transmit a measuring radiation in a direction of an object to be measured. The receiving unit is configured to receive measuring radiation returning from the object. A method for operating the distance measuring device includes starting at least one first distance measurement by moving the first operating element from a first a second position at which the device is deactivated to a first position, in particular along a measurement axis, to trigger the measurement, or in particular a sequence of continuous distance measurements.
