8.8 Setting out
With the range meter, pre-determined
dimensions can be set-out and marked,
such as for installing drywall tracks.
The continuous measurement mode is
used when transfering dimensions from
drawings. (See also section 7.4.3.2
Continuous measurement.)
Hold the "Measure" key pressed for approx.
2 seconds to activate the continuous
measurement mode. When doing so, it
does not matter whether the range meter is
switched off or the laser beam is switched
on or off. The range meter always switches
to the continuous measurement mode.
Move the range meter slowly until the
desired distance is reached or appears in
the display.
Press the "Measure" key once again to end
the continuous measurement mode.
9. Calibration and adjustment
9.1 Calibration
The inspection, measuring and test
equipment for the range meter must be
certified in accordance with ISO 900X...
You may carry out the inspection,
measuring and test of the PD 32 laser
range meter as specified in ISO 900X...
(See ISO 17123-4 Field Process for
Accuracy Examinations of Geodetic
Instruments:
Part 6, Close-range Opto-electrical Range
Meters.)
Select a readily accessible measuring dis-
tance of a known length approx. 1 to 5
meters (3 – 15 ft) long which does not
vary with time and take five measurements
of the same distance.
Determine the mean of the deviations to
the known distance. This value should be
within the specific accuracy tolerance for
the range meter.
Keep a record of this value and note the
time for the next test.
Repeat this check measurement at regular
intervals as well as before and after
important measuring tasks.
Apply a sticker to the PD 32 documenting
this control of the measuring, inspection
and test equipment for the range meter and
keep a record of the entire control process,
inspection procedure and the results.
Please refer to the technical data contained
in the operating instructions and the
information concerning measuring
accuracy.
