PZS-1 Sensor and GPS+ Receiver (optional)
The PZS-1 sensor
(Figure 1-4) instantly computes precise vertical information from the
PZL-1 laser transmitter. Using Lazer Zone technology, the PZS-1
automatically determines elevation based on jobsite control.
Mounting the PZS-1 to a range pole and attaching a GPS+ receiver
allows the sensor to receive the PZL-1 laser signal and wirelessly
transmit data to the receiver.

PZL-1 Laser Transmitter
The PZL-1 laser transmitter (Figure 1-5)
operates similar to a standard rotating laser, but transmits a unique
signal to provide a working range of 2000ft and a measuring area of
33ft in height. Up to four laser transmitters can be linked for use on
large sites. Each PZL-1 laser transmitter also supports multiple
rovers, even at different elevations for continuous production.
