SETTING TO WORK
Before using the unit for the first time, install batteries or rechargeable
batteries. Charge rechargeable batteries. See regarding section.
Position the unit on a stable platform or tripod at the desired elevation.
Press the power button
1
to turn on the unit and power indicator
3
. Self-
leveling will start at once. In order to switch the unit off, press the power
button again.
The unit is leveled when the laser and leveling indicators
4, 5
are no longer
blinking. The rotor will not spin until the unit is leveled. The power indicator
remains on.
If the unit is positioned beyond it´s self-leveling range of ±8%, the laser
and leveling indicators will recurringly flash quickly four times. Turn the unit
off, reposition the laser within the self-leveling range and turn it on again.
Rotation mode
After turning on the unit and after self-leveling, the unit is set in Rotation
mode.
The unit starts rotating at a speed of 550
1
/
min
.
Self-leveling, out-of-level alert
Once turned on, the unit automatically levels itself in ranges of 8% (± 0,8 m
/ 10 m). In order to recognize the leveling process at the measuring area
and in order not to mark faulty heights during this operation, the rotation
stops and the laser flashes while leveling.
Once leveled, the unit constantly
monitors
its level condition. The
Out-of-
Level Alert
is activated 8 seconds after self-leveling and reacts, in
dependence of the deviation, as detailed below:
•
< 2 mm/10 m:
These level errors are automatically corrected without
stopping the prism. They are generally caused by building or ground
vibration or oscillations caused by wind.
•
> 2 mm/10 m < 20 mm/10 m:
These level errors are also automatically
corrected.The prism will stop rotating and the laser will blink while leveling
so no inaccurate measurements will be taken.
•
> 20 mm/10 m:
These level errors put the unit into
alert mode
because
they are generally caused by a disturbance which could lead to inaccurate
measurements. When entering into alert mode, the prism stops, the laser
turns off, a warning sound is heard and the Power indicator
3
flashes.
Turn the unit off and then on again. To asure your former elevation, you
have now to check or arrange the exact height.
