Section #3 - Using the TruAngle

Page 7

Fine Adjust and Friction Lock

The Fine Adjust wheel lets you precisely control the encoder’s rotation. Movement of the wheel results in 

small angle update measurements. The Fine Adjust ratio is 66:1.

Tightening the Friction Lock keeps the encoder from rotating by adding friction to the base plate and to 

the brake shoe which is attached to the chassis. Adjust as needed.

Button Names and Functions

Power ON the TruAngle

To power on the TruAngle, long press the ON button. Briefly, the LCD should look like Figure #8 and 

the backlight will also be on. Next the LCD should look like Figure #9, prompting you to index the 

encoder 

(Page 9)

Button

Function

Figure #7

ON

Long press powers on the TruAngle.

Shows the Display Test at power on until the 

button is released 

(Page 8)

.

BL

When the TruAngle is already powered on, long 

press to turn on / off the backlight.

OK

Short press to accept orientation and reference 

the TruAngle at the value displayed.

ZERO

Long press to activate the Zero Mode.

BS

Short press to activate the Backsight Mode.

Press and hold both buttons until the TruAngle 

powers off.

This manual simplifies the button names to relate to current function 

instead of matching the TruAngle’s label. For example, instead of 

“Press 

the ON BL OK button to activate the backlight”

, this manual would state 

“Press the BL button to activate the backlight”
