Aim the laser beam at the target surface. Push
the measuring button 5 again to initiate the
measurement.
In the continuous measurement mode, the
measurement already starts upon first
actuation of the measuring button 5.
The measured value appears after 0.5 to 4
seconds. The duration of the measurement
depends on the distance, the light conditions
and the reflection properties of the target
surface. The end of the measurement is
indicated by a signal tone. The laser beam is
switched off automatically upon completion of
the measurement.
When no measurement has taken place
approx. 20 seconds after sighting, the laser
beam is switched off automatically to save the
batteries.
Selecting the Reference Point
(see figures B–C)
For measuring, it is possible to select from two
different reference points:
• The rear edge of the Distance Measurer
(e.g., when placing the Distance Measurer
flush against a wall),
• The front edge of the Distance Measurer
(e.g., as when measuring from the edge of a
table onward),
To select the reference point, push button 9
until the required reference point is indicated in
the display. Each time after switching on, the
rear edge of the Distance Measurer is preset
as the reference point.
Changing the Unit of Measure
The unit of measure can be changed any time
for display of the measured values, even for
already measured or calculated values.
