laser distance measuring device BD8M
Carrying out measurements
Warning of laser radiation
Laser class 2, P max.: < 1 mW, λ: 400-700 nm,
EN 60825-1:2014
Do not look directly into the laser beam or the opening
from which it emerges.
Never point the laser beam at people, animals or
reflective surfaces. Even brief eye contact can lead to
eye damage.
Examining the laser output aperture by use of optical
instruments (e.g. magnifying glass, magnifiers and the
like) entails the risk of eye damage.
When working with a laser of class 2, observe the
national regulations on wearing eye protection.
Info
Before carrying out measurements, make sure that the
correct reference point is selected. By default, the rear
reference point is selected. The reference point should
not be changed in the course of a measurement!
By pressing the button (
11
) you can call up the following
measuring modes one after the other:
•
Single distance measurement:
- you can add or subtract measured values
- you can perform a non-stop measurement with MAX- /
MIN-/current value
•
Area measurement
•
Volume measurement
•
Indirect height measurement
•
Twofold indirect height measurement
Carrying out single distance measurement
1. Briefly press the
ON/MEAS
button (
10
) to activate the laser.
ð
Indication (
23
) flashes if the laser is activated.
2. Point the laser at the target area.
3. Briefly press the
ON/MEAS
button (
10
) again to perform a
distance measurement.
ð
Indication (
23
) goes out during the measurement.

Info
The laser is automatically switched off after
approx. 30 seconds when not in use. Briefly press the
ON/MEAS
button (
10
) to switch the laser on again.
Performing a non-stop / min and max measurement
With this measurement method the device can be moved with
the measured value being recalculated roughly
every 0.5 seconds. You can use the non-stop measurement
function with MAX/MIN/current value display for performing the
following measurements, for example:
•
measuring a diagonal (MAX value)
•
determining the perpendicular length to a wall/floor area
(MIN value)
