Operation

Deadband (Accuracy) Switch: 

Each on-grade location has 

three deadband or accuracy selections - fine, standard, and 

wide. The center or grading deadbands are smaller than the 

offset or excavating deadbands.

Pressing the switch once flashes the status LED of the current 

selection. Pressing the switch again while the status LED is activated 

changes the selection, sequencing from fine to standard to wide to fine, etc.

Laser Beam Averaging:

 The secondary function for the Deadband Switch is 

laser beam averaging. The laser beam averaging function senses the laser 

strikes  and  applies  the  highest  level  of  averaging  appropriate  for  the  laser 

rotation speed. This may stabilize the LED grade display if the laser set-up 

is unstable due to windy conditions or long range applications. The factory 

default setting is Laser Beam Averaging ON.
The receiver can be set for no averaging. In this mode the receiver processes 

and displays every single laser strike. To change between the two modes, 

press and hold the power switch and then press and release the deadband 

switch.  The  outer  green  on-grade  LED's  will  flash  to  indicate  averaging 

selection. When the center LED is on, averaging is on. When the center LED 

is off, averaging is off. Pressing this switch combination while the LED's are 

activated will change the current selection between on and off.

Operation

Display Brightness Selection: 

The brightness switch controls 

the LED grade display and blade tilt display brightness. Bright and 

Dim are the selection options. Use Bright for daytime operation 

if necessary and Dim for lower light conditions. Operating with 

Display Dim selected will extend battery life.

When the brightness switch is pressed and the receiver is out of the laser beam, 

the LED's will display a circle with the current setting. Press the brightness 

switch again while the LED's are activated to change the setting. The LED's 

will then display the new setting. 
When the receiver is in the laser beam, simply press the brightness switch and 

the setting will change.

Out Of Level Warning: 

The secondary function for the Brightness Switch is 

laser Out of Level (OOL) Warning. The Out of Level Warning is used with certain 

lasers that have the ability to indicate they are out of level by changing their 

rotation speed. The factory default setting is Laser Out of Level Warning off. 
To activate the laser OOL Warning, turn the receiver on. Press and hold the 

power switch and then press and release the brightness switch. If the center 

green LED is not lit, the OOL Warning is off. Pressing the power / brightness 

switch  combination  again  while  the  "X"  pattern  is  activated  will  turn  the 

warning on. The center green LED will come on to confirm the OOL Warning 

is on. Pressing the switch combination again while the "X" pattern is activated 

will toggle between on and off.

When the warning is turned on and the laser drops to 140 RPM, a flashing 

"X" will appear on the display to let the machine operator know the laser is 

out of level.
