The center of the measurement field length (190 mm / 7.6 inch) is marked with a black arrow on the body of 
the instrument. The width of the measurement field (50 mm / 2 inch) is centered.  

The LTL3000 is equipped with a USB port on the side of the instrument for data export via a memory stick. 

The instrument is powered by a rechargeable battery, offering many hours of measurement capacity. A 
mains powered battery charger is supplied with the instrument as customary delivery. 

 

Getting started 

Insert battery:

 before using the LTL3000 instrument make sure that the battery is charged and inserted in 

the battery slot on the side of the instrument.

 

Turn on:

 press the green button on the handle of the LTL3000 instrument. After 10-15 seconds, the system 

has booted, and the instrument is ready for use. 

Stand-by:

 the LTL3000 automatically switches to 

stand-by mode

 if the instrument has not been used for a 

specific amount of time. From stand-by mode the instrument is instantly ready when pressing the green 
button on the handle. 

Calibrate:

 to ensure high quality of data we recommend that you perform an RL calibration of the instrument 

every day the instrument is in use, typically in the morning before commencing the measurements (see how 
in the section named ‘Calibration’ in this manual). 

The Qd (optional feature) measurement system is factory calibrated and regular calibration is not necessary. 

Switch off

: press the X-button on the handle of the LTL3000 

and then press ‘Shutdown’ in the menu on the 

touch screen, and the instrument will switch off. Note: if not properly switched off, the instrument will continue 
to consume battery in standby mode.
