face. For improved visibility of the laser beam when
working outdoors and when the sunlight is intense,
use laser viewing glasses and laser target plate, or
shade off the target surface.
Influence Effects on the Measuring Result
Due to physical effects, faulty measurements cannot
be excluded when measuring on different surfaces. In-
cluded here are:
– Transparent surfaces (e.g., glass, water),
– Reflecting surfaces (e.g., polished metal, glass),
– Porous surfaces (e.g. insulation materials),
– Structured surfaces (e.g., roughcast, natural
stone).
If required, use a laser target plate on these surfaces.
Furthermore, faulty measurements are also possible
when sighting inclined target surfaces.
Also, air layers with varying temperatures or indirectly
received reflections can affect the measured value.
Accuracy Check and Calibration of the Grade
Measurement (see figure H)
Regularly check the accuracy of the grade measure-
ment. This is done by carrying out a reversal measure-
ment. For this, place the measuring tool on a table and
measure the grade. Turn the measuring tool by 180 °
and measure the grade again. The difference of the in-
dicated reading may not exceed by more than 0.3 °
(max.).
In case of greater deviation, the measuring tool must
be recalibrated. For this, press and hold the grade
measurement button 3. Follow the directions on the
display.
Accuracy Check of the Distance Measurement
The accuracy of the distance measurement can be
checked as follows:
– Select a permanently unchangeable measuring
section with a length of approx. 1 to 10 metres; its
length must be precisely known (e.g. the width of a
room or a door opening). The measuring distance
must be indoors; the target surface for the meas-
urement must be smooth and reflect well.
– Measure the distance 10 times after another.
The deviation of the individual measurements from the
mean value must not exceed ± 2 mm (max.). Log the
measurements, so that you can compare their accura-
cy at a later point of time.
Working with the Tripod
The use of a tripod is particularly necessary for larger
distances. The measuring tool can be screwed onto a
commercially available tripod using the 1/4" thread 19
on the bottom side of the housing.
Set the corresponding reference level for measure-
ment with a tripod by pushing button 10 (the refer-
ence level is the thread).
