The warning signal *1 and *2 will function only if RL-VH4DR/G2 Alert Signal function 
[COM] is active.
Alarm detection at the level sensor can be canceled by turning off the level sensor 
switch while pressing the buzzer sound switch. When the switch is turned back on 
again, alarm detection functions as usual.

High precision mode

Normal precision mode

RL-VH4DR/G2 Height Alert warning

*1

(Except for LS-80G)

When the Alert Signal function [COM] is active on 
the RL-VH4DR/G2, the sensor will signal if the 
laser has been disturbed so the height of the 
instrument can be checked.
The buzzer will sound for about five seconds and 
the height alert warning symbol will flash until the 
sensor detects normal beam rotation from the 
laser. To obtain normal beam rotation, the RL-
VH4DR/G2 must be turned off then back on. 
Then check that beam height has not changed.

RL-VH4DR/G2 battery warning

*2

(Except for LS-80G)

When the Alert Signal function [COM] is active on 
the RL-VH4DR/G2, the sensor will signal if the 
battery of the RL-VH4DR/G2 is low. The laser low 
battery warning symbol will flash on the level 
sensor display. No audio signal is generated for 
this warning.

Higher than datum position

Move the sensor down, The arrow will become shorter 
as the datum position is approached.
Audio signal: High- pitch, frequent beep.

Datum position

(Audio signal: Continuous beep sound)

Lower than datum position

Move the sensor up. The arrow will become shorter as 
the datum position is approached.

Audio signal: Low- pitch, frequent beep.

Battery remaining display

Indicates the battery remaining of level sensor 
as follows.

Battery is sufficient.

The power is low, but laser is still usable.

Dead battery. Replace the 9v alkaline battery.
