Use the "Measuring units" button to select metric or
imperial measuring units.
Use the volume button to assign the more rapid signal
tone to the upper or lower area of the receiving window.
To access the extended menu, press the "Button lock"
button on the rear of the PRA 36. Use the direction
buttons (left/right) to make further selections from the
menu: e.g. adjust PRI 36 shock sensitivity, cancel pairing
or switch off wireless operation.
Settings that affect the PRI 36 become effective only
when the PRI 36 is switched on and in wireless contact.
The direction buttons (up/down) are used to change
the settings. Each setting then becomes effective and
remains effective the next time the tool is switched on.
To save the settings, switch the PRA 36 off.

The "Units" button can be used to set the desired unit, de-
pending on the applicable country-specific version (mm

The volume can be adjusted by pressing the "Signal tone"
button. One of the following 4 settings can be selected:
"Low", "Normal", "High" or "Off".
7.2.7 Button lock and double click 4 5
The button lock function of the PRA 36 prevents uninten-
tional entries being made and is indicated at the upper
left edge of the display on both sides of the PRA 36. The
lock symbol is either open (unlocked) or closed (locked).
Both sides of the remote control / laser receiver cannot
be used at the same time . If one side of the remote
control / laser receiver is in use, the other side is disabled
(locked) automatically. The enabled side can be changed
by double-clicking the lock symbol.
In order to avoid incorrect operation, the "Automatic
alignment", "Surveillance" and "Special line" commands
must be confirmed by a double click. For the sake of
simplicity, this is not mentioned each time in further
sections of these operating instructions.
