Continuous measurement (positioning)
The continuous measurement function (positioning) is used for transferring measurements
e.g. from construction plans. In the continuous measurement mode the measuring device can
be moved relative to the target, whereby the measured value is updated approx. every 0.5
seconds in the display.
For example, the user can measure the distance between the device and a wall and then
move away from the wall while the current distance is updated continuously on the screen;
the user is then informed when the correct distance has been reached.
1. Press the Mode button (4) to select the single distance measurement mode. If the device
is currently in another mode, press the Delete button to revert back to the single distance
measurement mode.
2. Press and hold the Read button for approx. 3 seconds to activate the continuous mea-
surement mode.
3. Move the device until the required distance is displayed at the bottom of the screen.
4. Press the Read button to interrupt the measurement.
The current measured value is displayed on the bottom
line of the screen. The minimum and maximum values
are displayed on the first and second lines of the
screen (fig. 24).
5. Press the Read button again to start a new continuous
measurement.
Minimum/Maximum measurement
This function allows the user to determine the minimum or maximum distance from a fixed
reference point. As a rule it is used to measure diagonal distances (maximum values), hori-
zontal distances or vertical distances (minimum values). The function can be transferred to
the area, volume, Pythagorean Theorem measurement and single distance measurement
modes. The Min/Max function can help to eliminate measuring deviations that are caused
by holding the device or aiming it at the target incorrectly. It can help to produce an accurate
calculation of the area, volume and indirect length.
1. Press the Mode button (4) to select the area, volume or Pythagorean Theorem measure-
ment mode.
2. Press the Min/Max button (8) to transfer the Min/Max function.
3. Press the Read button to activate the laser, then aim the laser beam at the target you
wish to measure and press the button again to start the minimum or maximum measure-
ment.
4. Slowly sweep the laser left and right or up and down over the desired target point.
5. Press the Read button to interrupt the Min/Max measurement; the minimum or maxi-
mum value is displayed on the corresponding line of the screen as the exact length for
the calculation.
