7. Operation

The result appears in the result line 
normally in less than a second. The laser
beam switches off.

If further measurements are taken, up to
three previously determined distances are
shown in the intermediate result lines, 
i.e. a total of the last four measured 
distances are shown.

7.3.3 Measuring mode

Two different measuring modes are 
available to measure distances. These are
single distance measurement and
continuous distance measurement. The
continuous measurement mode is used for
setting out given distances or offsets and
is also used where distance measurements
are more difficult, e.g. to corners, edges,
niches, etc.

7.3.3.1 Single distance measurement
(Measure key)

1. Switch on the laser beam by pressing 

the "Measure" key.

2. Press the "Measure" key once again. 

Generally, the measured distance will be 
completed in less than a second and 
shown in the result line.

- NOTE -

Alternatively the range meter may be 
switched on by pressing the On key and
the laser then activated by pressing the
measure key.

7.3.3.2 Continuous measurement

Press the "Measure" key for about 2 sec-
onds to activate this measuring mode.
When doing so, it does not matter whether
or not the range meter is off or the laser
beam is switched on or off. The range
meter will always switch to continuous
measurement.
During continuous measurement, the dis-
tances are updated in the result line by
about 8 to 15 measurements every second.
This depends on the reflectivity of the 
target surface.
If the beep signal is switched on, 
continuous measurement is indicated 
by a Beep. 
The measuring process is stopped by 
pressing the "Measure" key once again. 
On doing so, the last valid distance 
measurement shows in the result line on
the display.

- NOTE -

Continuous measurement is possible
wherever distances can be measured. This
applies also to functions, such as areas
and volumes.
