Changing the Unit of Measure
For indication of the measured values, the unit
of measure can be changed at any time.
The following units of measure are possible:
– Length measurement: m, cm, mm, ft, ft 1/32,
in, in 1/32, yd,
– Area/surface measurement: m
– Volume measurement: m
To to change the unit of meas-
ure, press the function-mode
button 3 until the "change
unit of measure" indication
appears on the display. Select
the required unit of measure
by pressing the plus button 6
or the minus button 12.
The unit-of-measure setting is retained when
switching the measuring tool on or off.
Measuring Functions
Simple Length Measurement
For length measurements, press button 4 until
the "length measurement" indication
on the display.
Press the measuring button 7
once for sighting and once
more to take the measure-
ment.
The measured value is dis-
played in the result line c.
For several subsequent length measurements,
the last measured results are displayed in the
measured-value lines a.
Continuous Measurement (Tracking)
For continuous measurements, the measuring
tool can be moved relative to the target, where-
by the measuring value is updated approx. every
0.5 seconds. In this manner, as an example, you
can move a certain distance away from a wall,
while the actual distance can always be read.
For continuous measurements, firstly select the
length measuring mode and then press the
measuring button 7 until the "indicator for con-
tinuous measurement"
play. The laser is switched on and the measure-
ment starts immediately.

es off after 5 min. The last measured value re-
mains indicated in the result line c.
Minimum/Maximum Measurement
(see figure F–G)
The minimum measurement is used to deter-
mine the shortest distance from a fixed refer-
ence point. It is used, as an example, for deter-
mining plumb lines or horizontal partitions.
The maximum measurement is used to deter-
mine the greatest distance from a fixed refer-
ence point. It is used, as an example, for deter-
mining diagonals.
For simple minimum/maximum measurement,
appears
firstly select "length measurement mode" and
then press button 13 "min" is displayed in result
line c for minimum measurement. For maximum
measurements, press button 13 again, so that
"max" is displayed in the result line. Then press
the measuring button 7. The laser is switched on
and the measurement starts.
Move the laser back and forth over the request-
ed target (e.g., the room corner for determining
the diagonal) in such a manner that the refer-
ence point of the measurement (e.g., the tip of
the positioning pin 18) always remains at the
same location.
or larger than the present maximal value. The
maximal ("max"), the minimal ("min") and the
appears on the dis-
current measuring value are displayed in the
measured-value lines a.
The current measured value is
displayed in the result line c.
Briefly pressing the measur-
ing button 7 ends the contin-
uous measurement. The last
measured value is displayed
in the result line c. Pressing
Depending on the set mode,
the minimum or maximum
value is displayed in the re-
sult line c. It is always over-
written, when the current
length measurement value is
less than the present minimal
