Plumbline Program
7.7.1
Short explanation
The Plumbline Program is used to carry out straightness measurements on shafts and to measure their
central axis relative to the plumbline. This program provides a function for self-calibration of the lasers, if
they are fixed to the 180° position. The laser transmitter is placed on four sides of the shaft in the 12 and
6 o’clock position.
To achieve results which are as accurate as possible, you should carry out alignment very carefully (due
to planes).
Plan your measurement placing the transmitter in the first po
sition (12 o’clock) and confirm the position by
manually entering the angle (just numbers, no „°“). Mark the measurement points on the shaft. Save all
measurement results for the transmitter position. Move the transmitter to the opposite site of the shaft (6
o’clock position) and switch to the opposite side by pressing
. Confirm the new position by manually
entering the angle (once per side) and save all readings for the new transmitter position.
