8. Applications
8.7.2 Minimum measurement
The minimum measurement is taken in the
continuous measurement mode which
updates the display every time the
measured distance decreases.
1. After starting the "Min / Max" function,
the laser beam will be switched 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 "MIN" display
field will update every time the distance
decreases below the last value
displayed.
6. The distance shown in the "MAX" display
field will update every time the distance
increases above the last value
displayed.
7. Stop measuring by pressing the
"Measure" key.
The display then shows values for the
Max distance, Min distance and difference
between the two values.

8.7.3 Combined measurement
The combination of simultaneous display
of maximum and minimum distances
permits the calculation of offsets,
differences in distances very simply,
quickly and reliably. As a result, how much
the offset between a pipe and a ceiling or
the offset of two objects in general, can be
determined reliably even if they are in
inaccessible places.
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. Move the range meter so that the
longest and the shortest distances
are measured.
6. The difference between the two
distances is shown in the line
In the given example, the difference in dis-
tance between ceiling and underside pipe
can be read straight off the display.
