Selecting the Reference Level (see figure A)
For the measurement, you can select between four reference
planes:
– The rear edge of the measuring tool or the front edge of the
90° folded-out positioning pin
9
(e.g. when measuring on-
ward from outer corners),
– The tip of the 180° folded-out positioning pin
9
(e.g. when
measuring from a corner),
– The front measuring-tool edge (e.g. when measuring on-
ward from a table edge),
– The centre of thread
19
(e.g. for tripod measurements).
To select the reference level, press button
10
until the re-
quested reference level is indicated on the display. Each time
after switching on the measuring tool, the rear end of the
measuring tool is preset as the reference level.
Subsequent changing of the reference level for measure-
ments that have already been carried out (e.g. when indicat-
ing measuring values in the measured-value list) is not possi-
ble.
