Indirect measurement
Pythagorean measurement is used in the condition that the objective needing to be measured is covered or has no effective relecting
surface and can’t be measured directly.
Make sure you adhere to the prescribed sequence of measurement:
All target points must be in a horizontal or vertical plane.
The best results are achieved when the instrument is rotated about a ixed point (e.g. with the positioning bracket fully folded out and the
instrument placed on a wall) or the instrument is mounted on a tripod.
The minimum / maximum function can be used. The minimum value must be used for measurements at right angles to the target; the
maximum distance for all other measurements.
Indirect measurement – determing a distance using 2 auxilary measurements.
E.g. When height and distance can’t be measured directly.
Press button () 3 times. The symbol is displayed. The distance to be measured is blinking in the symbol triangle.
Press button (2) to take distance measuring . The result is displayed in the irst line.
Press button () to take distance measuring.
After pressing button (2) the result is displayed in the irst line. The result of the function is displayed in the second line.
