4.
Mode Selection
Pressing the “MODE” button changes the display
modes from degrees (°) to percent (%), to
(mm/m), to pitch (IN/FT). The “ ” shows
the current angle’s position, relative to the
horizontal or vertical position.
5. Relative or absolute angle measurement
The “Ref” button will set the current angle to zero
thus allowing measurement of angles relative to
that angle. Pressing the button again returns to
the “Absolute” measurement mode.
6. Audible buzzer
Pressing the “ “ button for a short time enables
an audible indication when the device is either
exactly horizontal or vertical.
7. The Hold function
