8. Applications
8.6.4 Indirect measurement
(simple version)
The individual steps for indirect distance
determination are supported by
corresponding graphics on the display.
To use the simple version, the following
procedure must be observed:
1. Press the "Indirect measurement"
function key twice to select the simple
version.
.
The laser beam will switch on.
2. Aim the range meter at the target
indicated on the graphic display.
3. Press the "Measure" key.
4. Thereafter this, the graphic display will
automatically request measurement
of the shortest distance.
5. After the second measurement has
been completed, the range meter will
immediately calculate the indirect dis-
tance.
8.7 Min / Max measurement
The minimum / maximum (Min / Max)
function is used primarily for determining
diagonal distances or taking measurements
to inaccessible places and determining or
setting out parallel objects.

Both functions are activated simultaneously
by pressing the "Min / Max" key.
In addition, the difference between
minimum and maximum is shown.
8.7.1 Maximum measurement
The continuous measurement mode is
used for the maximum measurement and
this mode updates the display every time
the measured distance increases.
1. After starting the "Min / Max" function,
the laser beam will switch on.
2. Aim the range meter towards the target.
3. Press the "Measure" key.
4. After this, continuous measurement
will start.
5. The distance shown in the "MAX" dis-
play field will update every time the dis-
tance increases above the last value
displayed.
6. The distance shown in the MIN display
field will update every time the
measured distance decreases below
the last value displayed.
7. Stop measuring by pressing the
"Measure" key.
The display then shows values for the Max
distance, Min distance and the difference
between the two values.
