If you see this issue…
… take this action
The angles output by the TruAngle do not
appear to be accurate.
Make sure the TruAngle is level before you
power it On
.
When mounting the TruAngle, make sure
the base is completely tight to the top of
the tripod, adapter or staff you are using;
and does not rotate. To aid in this, tighten
down the friction lock so the entire unit
will not rotate.
When turning the unit, the gears seem to
grind.
Loosen the friction lock until it moves
smoothly.
After referencing the TruAngle, the data
strings are not being output. The display
is updating when rotated but now it is
flashing.
The ZERO/BS button was inadvertently
pressed. Cycle the Power Off/On, and
re-reference the unit and try again.
The display reads “ind” and will not go
into the Zero backsight mode.
Rotate the TruAngle through 360 degrees
until the display starts to flash “0.00”.
