USER MANUAL S3100 Tacklife

Under off status, press button , device and laser get starting instantly and start to work. Under on status, long press button for 3 seconds to turn off the device. The device can also be off without any operation for 150 seconds.

Under the measuring mode, long press button , reset measurement unit, the default unit is: 0.000m There are 6 units for selection. Units: Discharge the battery door on the back of device, and place battery according to correct polarity, then cover the battery door. Only 1.5 V AAA alkaline battery is applied to the meter. If the meter is not used frequently, please take out the battery to avoid battery corrosion to meter body. Turn on / off the Instrument Unit setting

Long press , values shows in the screen. User can press or to adjust the time of measurement between 3s to 60s. Press to start, the measure start when the time turns to 0.

The back light is set to turn on and off automatically. The back light can be on for 15s while operating,and it will be shut off automatically in 15s when there is no operation to the device.

Short press button to turn on or off the buzzer. Self-Calibration This function can keep the precision of the device automatically. Instruction: Power off, press button and till "CAL" and a figure under it displays on the screen. User can adjust the figure with button , according to the accuracy of the meter. Adjusting range: -9 to 9mm, then press button to save the calibration result. Length Measurement & Calculation

Short press to turn on the laser beam under measuring mode. Press the button again for single measurement of length, then the measured results will display on the major display area.

Long press button under measuring mode and enter into continuous measuring mode. Maximum and Minimum measuring result will display in auxiliary display area, current result will show in major display area. Short press button or to withdraw continuous measuring mode. Changing Reference Point Delaying Measurement Back Light On / Off Sound on/off Single Distance Measuring: Continuous Measurement: - 03 -accuracy of the meter. Adjusting range: -9 to 9mm, then press button

Press button once, shows on the screen. One of the side of rectangle blinking on the display, please follow the below instructions for area measuring: Press once for length measurement Press again for width measurement The device calculates and shows the result in the major display area. The resent measuring result of length is showed in the auxiliary display area . Press , clear off the result and measuring again if necessary. Press again to exit the mode.

Press button twice to enter volume measurement mode. A will shows on the top of screen. Please follow the below instruction for volume measuring: Press for Length measurement Press again for Width measurement Press thirdly for height measurement The device calculates and shows the result in the major display area. The resent measuring result of length is showed in the auxiliary display area. Press , clear off the result and measuring again if necessary. Press again to exit the mode.

When the meter is in area mode, you can use the add / subtract function to total up the area of several surfaces. Press button three times till showing in the display. Press to measure the height of the wall first; Press to measure the bottom edge of the first wall, get the first area in the major display area; Press to measure the bottom edge of another wall, get the sum of these two walls. Area Measurement Volume Measurement Painter Function - 04 -Repeat these operations for more walls. Press button to clear the previous measuring result and start new measurement. When there is no data in the Auxiliary Display area, press to exit the mode.

There are four Pythagoras modes in case that user gets difficulties to measure directly.

Pythagoras Calculate the length of two legs by measuring the hypotenuse and the angle. Short press four times, when the hypotenuse of blinking, Press , measure the length of hypotenuse (a), and calculates the angle (α) between the bevel and the bottom at the same time.

Device calculates the horizontal distance (b) and vertical height (h) . Calculate the hypotenuse by measuring the length of two legs. Short press five times, when one leg of blinking, Press , measure the length of one leg (a) Press , measure the length of another leg (b) Device calculates the length of hypotenuse (x) Press six times till the one side of blinking on the screen. Press , measure the length of one side (a) Press , measure the length of the median line (b) Press , measure the length of another side (c) Device calculates the length of the leg in full line (x) Press seven times till the hypotenuse of blinking on the screen. Press , measure the length of one hypotenuse (a) Press , measure the length of another hypotenuse (b) Press , measure the length of one leg (c) Device calculates the length of the leg in full line (x) Legs must short than hypotenuse, or there will be "err" shows on screen. In order to guarantee the accuracy, please make sure all measurements are start from the same point.

- 06 -● The device can be used for length addition and subtraction. Press to select the function once get the length measuring result. Press , "+" shows in the major display area, entering cumulation mode. Value of last measurement and the result of cumulation will be showed on the screen. Press again , "-" shows in the major display area, entering regressive mode. Value of last measurement and the result of cumulation will be showed on the screen. Can choose the addition or subtraction mode by pressing the button . Not only length can be calculated in addition and subtraction, but area and volume can do the calculation as well. Take area as example: Area cumulative function: Measure the first area as showing in PIC1. Then press button , and measure the second area as showing in PIC2, there is a "+" in the left bottom. At last, press button to get the summation result of these two areas which is showing in PIC3. Memory Function Long press button for 3s to record your measuring result under measuring mode. It can also record the result under Area, Volume and Pythagoras mode. All the calculating records can be saved by the device. Addition / subtraction

- 07 -● Short press button , read the records by press button and . Short press to delete recent record and long press to clear up all the records. Press or to exit rec ord mode. When the storage is full, the screen will display the mark.

The angle information is displayed at the top of the screen, and the angle measurement range is -90.0° to 90.0° . Tips You may get some warning information as below: Read / Delete the Record: Angle measurement Err1 Err2 Err3 Err4 Err5 Err Info message Cause Solution Signal is too weak Out of distance measurement range Chose the surface with stronger reflectance. Use the reflecting plate. Use the device within the range Signal is too strong Chose the surface with weaker reflectance. Use the reflecting plate. Low battery voltage Change the power supply. Use the device in the specified temperature. The working temperature is out of working range Pythagoras measuring error. Re-measure and ensure that Hypotenuse is bigger than Cathetus.
