Long press to turn on/off the instrument. The instrument switches of automatically after three minutes of inactivity.

Short press to turn on the laser, and then press again to trigger single measurement.

3. Return/Clear button

Short press to undo the last action or clear measured value.

4. Setting measuring reference

The default reference setting is from the rear of the instrument. Press

switch the reference point to the front reference or tripod reference. Press it again to switch back and forth between the front, middle and rear.10

*The reference point will be set to default every time when it is rebooted.

Long press to change distance unit between m, ft, in and ft+in. The measuring unit will automatically switch to “m” after restarting.

FUNCTIONS AND OPERATIONS

1. Single distance measurement

Press to activate the laser, and then press again to trigger single measurement. The laser is turned off after completion of measurement, and the measured value is displayed immediately. Note: After power on, the instrument enters the single measurement mode by default. After selection of measuring position, press ; in other measurement modes, press to go back to single measurement.

2. Continuous measurement (Max/Min)

Press button to activate continuous measurement. The continuous measurement symbol is shown on the screen. At the same time, the maximum and minimum distances measured are shown in the display. Users can press or to stop the function. *This function will be stopped automatically after 5 minutes of inactivity. min. max.11

Press once, the symbol

appears in the display. Press

take the rst distance measurement (e.g. length). Press again to take the second distance measurement (e.g. width). After the second measurement, the results of area/ perimeter are shown in the main display.

1. The first measurement

2. The second measurement

4. Volume measurement

Press twice, the symbol appears in the display. Press to take the rst distance measurement (e.g. length). Press again to take the second distance measurement (e.g. width), and press to take the third distance measurement (e.g. height). After three measurements, the result of volume is automatically shown in the summary line.

5. Indirect measurement

function allows you to measure distances for inaccessible locations. Note:

1. All the points to be measured should be on

the same horizontal or vertical plane. In order to get more accurate measurement results, it is recommended to use a tripod to rotate the instrument on the same axis for measurement (for example, the instrument’s corner is fully unwound against the wall for measurement). Indirect measurement: Pythagorean method two points As shown in the gure below, measure the height or width of a building, or when a height needs to be determined by two distances, it can be achieved by indirect measurement.

Press 3 times, the symbol appears on the screen. Take the rst measurement by referring to the blinking side (as shown in the gure above, aiming at the top point), and the measured value will be displayed as value 2; keep the instrument level which performs horizontal measurement by default; take the second measurement by referring to the blinking side (as shown in the gure above, aiming at the bottom point), and the measured value will be displayed as value 3. The calculated height is displayed in the summary line.13

4. The caculated distance

The instrument can also calculate the distance by using the angle measurement and Pythagorean theorem. This function allows you to measure distances for inaccessible locations. Note:

1. All the points to be measured should be on the

same vertical plane. (The angle sensor can only measure the angle of vertical line)

2. In order to get more accurate measurement

results, it is recommended to use a tripod to rotate the instrument on the same axis for measurement. The angle between the instrument and the horizontal plane is displayed on the screen in real time. Indirect measurement: auto horizontal Press ve times in a row, once, the auto horizontal symbol appears in the screen. As shown in the gure, press to measure the length of the bevel edge 1. The angle, bevel distance, vertical distance, horizontal distance will be displayed on the screen.

Indirect measurement: auto vertical Press six times in a row, once, the auto vertical symbol appears on the screen. As shown in the gure: Press button to measure the distance to the rst side; press again to measure the distance to the second side; then, the angle, distance to the rst and the second side, automatic vertical distance results are displayed on the screen in sequence.

6. Addition/Subtraction

Addition: short press

Distance addition/subtraction: Take a measurement rst, then press

the addition/subtraction symbol will appear on the screen and blinks continuously. Take the second measurement, the second distance value will be automatically added to/subtracted from the rst one. The result will be displayed in the summary line. Area/volume addition/subtraction During area/volume measurement, press button, the instrument will continue to measure the next distance/area/volume, and add the value to/subtract it from the current measured value. Measure an area/volume rst, press button, the area/volume value will appear on the screen as an addend. The plus or minus sign will also appear on the screen and blinks continuously. Measure the second area/volume, then the area/volume will appear on the screen as another addend which will be added to/ subtracted from the rst addend. The result will be displayed in the summary line. All the addition/subtraction functions can be operated repeatedly as required.
