MEASURING VOLUME
The volume measuring function is made for measuring the volume of a rectangular prismatic space. This function
is depicted by the cube symbol .
OPERATION
WARNING:
Do not direct the laser beam at persons or animals. Do not stare into the direct or reflected
laser beam, not even from a distance. Looking into the laser beam or directing the laser beam into someone’s
eyes can cause eye damage, blindness, and cause accidents.
1. Make sure you are in volume measuring mode depicted by the
cube symbol . If you’re in a different mode, press the mode button
until you see the cube symbol on the screen.
2. Make sure to set your measuring device’s reference point and units
(see p. 8).
3. If the laser beam is not ON, press the measurement button to
activate the laser. You will see the laser icon in the top left corner
when the laser is activated. Aim the laser to measure the length. Press
the measurement button again to take the measurement. The
value will be seen on your display.
4. Repeat step 3 two more times to measure the width, and height.
The volume will automatically calculate after the third measurement is
taken. The value of the last measurement will be seen on the top row
of your screen and the volume will be on the bottom. Your screen will
look like Fig. 6.
NOTE: A line will appear on the edge of the volume symbol to
indicate which measurement you are recording.
