OPERATION INSTRUCTION
Inaccurate measurement may result from the following:
z
When the battery runs out: at this time, the
“
”
icon will continuously appear on LCD to
remind you to replace the battery.
z
When the measured distance is out of the specified range: the effective range is 2
′
~53
′
(0.6~16m).
z
When the calculated result is out of the specified range: at this time, an error message “Err”
will be displayed on the lower line of the screen.
z
When addition of different parameters (e.g. length plus area), the “+” will be ignored and the
screen will keep the same read as the unit was operated before.
z
When another ultrasonic source or high frequency noise is nearby: leave or shut down the
noise resource when taking measurement.
z
When barriers appear between the tool and the measured surface.
z
When the measured surface is not smooth: the measured surface should be smooth, hard and
of homogeneity.
z
When the measuring environment is not good: the temperature and humidity will affect the
accuracy of measurement, and take measurement under environment of no wind, and
temperature of the unit should be same with temperature of the circumstance, especially for
long distance measuring (between 40’ to 53’/ 12m to 16m), the relative humidity should be
above 48%, and the size of measured surface should be at least 10ft. by 10ft./3m by 3m.
z
When measuring, ultrasonic sensor aperture should straightly face to the measured surface.
Cautions
z
Handle with care and do not let the tool drop down.
z
Do not disassemble the tool to avoid failure.
z
Keep the tool dry and clean.
z
Store the tool in the case when not in use.
z
Avoid dust and water, which may stain the lens.
z
Check battery regularly in case of its deterioration.
z
Remove the battery when not in use for an extended period of time.
