What is the distance that it can detect with accuracy?

I calibrated mine by pointing it at a cup of boiling water and it was within a couple of degrees. I usually use it at fairly close range (wheel bearings, tires, heating pads, etc) so haven't done any tests to determine long range accuracy but because of the physics of infrared I have no reason to believe it would be any less accurate at longer range. However it is rated at 12:1 spot ratio which means at twelve feet it would nominally be measuring the temperature of a one-foot circle and the farther removed you are the large the circle you would be averaging. One reason I chose this model was because its 12:1 rating was tighter than many other brands which were rated at 10:1 and 8:1. I have also used it to detect cold spots in my walls while standing back 8-12 feet and it has done this reliably.

Hi i would like to use this device to measure my cast iron coal stove surface temperature. The range will be 400-700 degrees

I use this device for my wood burning stove that's in my outdoor sauna. I aim it at the side of the burning chamber and it works great. I know when it's 600F or higher, that there is a good burn inside. When the temp drops to 500F or lower, I know it's time to add wood!

I am getting a LO reading what does this mean?

I would imagine that means your battery us low. I would change the battery and see if that addresses the issue.

Could I use it to measure oven temperature. through the oven glass and check for variation? i.e. front, back, middle and check for temp/variation?

Rather than tell you "I don't know", I will tell you what I think the answer is. I think that because the glass gets hot it will skew the readings. You may get just the temp of the glass and no internal temp or an average of the two. Do you know this instrument only reads radiated heat? It can't see air so it simply Looks through the air without feeling any hot or cold.Your question has peaked my interest - - - - - "To the kitchen men! Turm the oven on. There's some experimenting to do!" I'll add some more to this when I have the answer. ; ^)In a word, the answer is - - - "No" my oven has double glass the interior glass was 450° while the exterior glass was only 75° the ambient room temperate was 68°. Good idea too bad it won't work,
