- Center functions (CF/CL): You can choose between CenterFind (CF) mode and CenterLock (CL) mode. The current mode appears in the text display (e).

Functions

CenterFind mode (see figure C)

In CenterFind mode, the rotary laser automatically attempts to align the laser beam to the center line of the laser receiver by moving the rotation head up and down.

If the rotary laser is in the horizontal position, the laser beam can be aligned in relation to the X-axis of the rotary laser, to the Y-axis or to both axes at the same time (see “Inclination Determination with CenterFind mode (see figure D)”, page 4). If the rotary laser is in the vertical position, only alignment to the Y-axis is possible.

Start CenterFind mode:

Position the rotary laser and laser receiver so that the laser receiver is situated in the direction of the X-axis or the Y-axis of the rotary laser. Align the laser receiver so that the required axis is at a right angle to the reception area (1). If the laser beam is aligned to both axes, then place a laser receiver connected to the rotary laser in the direction of the X- and Y-axis respectively. Each laser receiver must be situated within the pivoting range of ±8.5% of the rotary laser.

Switch on the rotary laser in rotary operation.

In the settings menu, the center function must be put in CenterFind (CF) mode. When aligning to two axes of the rotary laser, this applies to both laser receivers.

To start CenterFind mode for the X-axis, either press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button, or press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button together with the X-axis button (16). To start CenterFind mode for the Y-axis, press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button, together with the Y-axis button (15). Should the laser beam be aligned to both axes at the same time, CenterFind mode must be started separately on each laser receiver.

Following the start of CenterFind mode, the rotary head on the rotary laser moves up and down. During the search process, CFX (X-axis) or CFY (Y-axis) appears in the text display (e).

If the laser beam hits the reception area (1) at the height of the center line of the laser re-

ceiver, the center line indicator (h) will appear and XOK (X-axis) or YOK (Y-axis) will appear on the display (e). The value of the incline that is found is displayed on the rotary laser. CenterFind mode then ends automatically.

Cancelling CenterFind mode:

To cancel the CenterFind mode, press and hold the CenterFind mode button (17).

Troubleshooting:

If the laser beam was unable to find the center line of the laser receiver within the pivoting range, ERR appears in the text display (e) and all LED direction indicators light up.

Press any button on the rotary laser or laser receiver to close the error message. Reposition the rotary laser and laser receiver so that the laser receiver is situated within the pivoting range of ±8.5% of the rotary laser. Ensure that the laser receiver is aligned to the X-axis or Y-axis so that the laser beam can pass through the reception area (1) horizontally. Then restart the CenterFind mode.

If both axes of the rotary laser should be aligned to a laser receiver, the same center function must be set on both laser receivers. A combination of CenterFind mode and CenterLock mode is not possible. If CenterLock mode is already set on one axis and CenterFind mode is started on the other axis, ERR and CL will appear alternately in the text display (e). Select CenterFind mode on both laser receivers and re-start the function.

Inclination determination with CenterFind mode (see figure D)

Using CenterFind mode, the inclination of a surface can be measured up to max. 8.5%. To do this, set up the rotary laser at one end of the inclined surface in a horizontal position on a tripod. The X- or Y-axis of the rotary laser must be aligned with the inclination to be determined. Switch on the rotary laser and allow it to level in.

Secure the laser receiver to a measuring rod (25) with the bracket. Place the measuring rod near to the laser level (at the same end of the inclined surface). Align the height of the laser receiver on the measuring rod so that the laser beam of the rotary laser is indicated as “centered” ①.

Then place the measuring rod with the laser receiver at the other end of the inclined surface at ●. Ensure that position of the laser receiver on the measuring rod remains unchanged.

Start CenterFind mode for the axis to which the inclined surface is aligned. At the end of CenterFind mode, the inclination of the surface is shown on the rotary laser.

In CenterLock mode, the rotary laser automatically attempts to align the laser beam to the center line of the laser receiver by moving the rotation head up and down. In contrast to the CenterFind mode, the position of the laser receiver is continually checked and the inclination of the rotary laser automatically adjusted. No slope values appear on the display of the rotary laser.

Alignment is possible for the X-axis and Y-axis both when the rotary laser is in a horizontal position and when it is in a vertical position.

Start CenterLock mode:

Position the rotary laser and laser receiver so that the laser receiver is situated in the direction of the X-axis or the Y-axis of the rotary laser. Align the laser receiver so that the required axis is at a right angle to the reception area (1).

If the laser beam is aligned to both axes, then place a laser receiver connected to the rotary laser in the direction of the X- and Y-axis respectively. Each laser receiver must be situated within the pivoting range of ±8.5% of the rotary laser.

Switch on the rotary laser in rotational operation.

In the settings menu of the laser receiver, the center function must be put in CenterLock (CL) mode. When aligning to two axes of the rotary laser, this applies to both laser receivers.

To start the CenterLock mode for the X-axis, either press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button, or press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button, together with the X-axis button (16).

To start the CenterLock mode for the Y-axis, press and hold the CenterFind (17) mode button, together with the Y-axis button (15).

Should the laser beam be aligned to both axes at the same time, CenterLock mode must be started separately on each laser receiver.

Following the start of CenterLock mode, the rotary head on the rotary laser moves up and down. During the search process, CLX (X-axis) or CLY (Y-axis) appears in the text display (e).

If the laser beam hits the reception area (1) at the height of the center line of the laser receiver, the center line indicator (h) and LOC is displayed on the text indicator. The Center-Lock symbol is displayed on the rotary laser on the start screen for the corresponding axis.

In the event of changes to the position of the laser receiver or rotary laser, the inclination is automatically adjusted on the rotary laser.

▶ Take great care when working with the CenterLock mode that rotary lasers and laser receivers are not moved unintentionally. Incorrect measurements can arise from the automatic adjustment of the inclination with every change of position.

Cancelling CenterLock mode:

To cancel or end the CenterLock mode, press and hold the CenterFind mode button (17). If the laser beam was already successfully aligned with the center line of the laser receiver at this point, the set inclination remains on the rotary laser even when CenterLock mode is cancelled.

Troubleshooting:

If the laser beam was unable to find the center line of the laser receiver within 2 min (no matter whether at the start of the mode or after changes to position), ERR appears in the text display (e) and all LED direction indicators light up.

Press any button on the rotary laser and one on the laser receiver to close the error messages. Reposition the rotary laser and laser receiver so that the laser receiver is situated within the pivoting range of ±8.5% of the rotary laser. Ensure that the laser receiver is aligned to the X-axis or Y-axis so that the laser beam can pass through the reception area (1) horizontally. Then restart the CenterLock mode.

If both axes of the rotary laser should be aligned to a laser receiver, the same center function must be set on both laser receivers. A combination of CenterLock mode and CenterFind mode is not possible. If CenterFind mode is already set on one axis and CenterLock mode is started on the other axis, ERR and CF will appear alternately in the text display (e). Select CenterLock mode on both laser receivers and re-start the function.

Anti-strobe protection filter

The laser receiver has electronic filters for strobe light. The filters protect against, for example, interference from the warning lights of construction machinery.

Practical Advice

Aligning with the spirit level

The laser receiver can be aligned vertically (plumb line) with the spirit level (7). If a laser receiver is mounted at an angle, it will give incorrect measurements.

Marking

You can mark the position of the laser beam at the center mark (9) on the left and right of the laser receiver when the beam hits the center of the reception area (1).

When marking, take care to align the laser receiver so that it is exactly vertical (with a horizontal laser beam) or horizontal (with a vertical laser beam), as otherwise the marks are offset with respect to the laser beam.

Attaching using the bracket (see figure E)

You can use the bracket (23) to attach the laser receiver to a measuring rod (25) (accessory) as well as to other objects with a width of up to 2.5 in.

Screw the bracket (23) to the mount (11) on the rear side of the laser receiver with the fastening screw (26).

Loosen the rotary knob (24) on the bracket, slide the bracket onto the measuring rod (25) and retighten the rotary knob (24).

You can use a spirit level (21) to ensure that the bracket (23) is horizontally aligned along with the laser receiver. If a laser receiver is mounted at an angle, it will give incorrect measurements.

The center line (22) of the bracket is located at the same height as the center mark (9) and can be used to mark the laser beam.

Attaching using a magnet (see figure F)

If an attachment is not required to be especially secure, the laser receiver can be attached to steel parts using the magnets (10).
