Then measure the width, length and depth one after the other as with a length measure-
ment. The laser beam remains switched on between the three measurements. The dis-
tance to be measured flashes in the indicator for volume measurement
The first measured value is shown at the top of the display.
After the third measurement has been completed, the volume will be

Indirect distance measurement
For indirect length measurements, three measuring modes are available. Each measur-
ing function can be used for determining different distances.
The indirect distance measurement is used to determine distances that cannot be meas-
ured directly, due to an obstacle that would impede the path beam or the absence of a
target surface that could serve as a reflector. This measuring procedure can only be em-
ployed vertically. Any horizontal deviation will lead to measurement errors.
Note: Indirect distance measurement is always less accurate than direct distance meas-
urement. For application-related reasons, measuring errors can be greater than with dir-
ect distance measurement. To improve the accuracy of measurement, we recommend
the use of a tripod (accessory).
The laser beam remains switched on between the individual measurements.
a) Indirect height measurement (see figure B)
Select the indirect height measurement mode
Ensure that the measuring tool is at the same height as the lower measuring point. Then
tilt the measuring tool around the reference level and measure distance 1 as for a length
measurement (displayed as a red line).
Once the measurement is complete, the result for the required distance
X is displayed in the result line (e). The measured values for distance 1
20.000 m
and angle α can be found in the measured value rows (d).
45°
45.0°
14.142 m
b) Double indirect height measurement (see figure C)
The measuring tool can indirectly measure all distances that lie in the vertical level of the
measuring tool.
Select the double indirect height measurement mode .
Measure distances 1 and 2 in succession as for a length measurement.
