the distance measurement. 

The result is displayed immediately.

Tilt measurement

)

The tilt sensor measures tilts between ± 45°.

)

During the measurement of tilt, the instru-

ment should be held without transverse tilt, as far as 
possible, (± 10°).

Horizontal measurement

 Press button to activate horizontal measure-

ment in the instrument. The following symbol 
appears in the display 

. If the button is active, 

the horizontal distance is displayed in the summary 
line for each distance measurement (up to max. +/-
45° and up to max. a transverse tilt of  +/-10°). 

Press the 

 button for 

longer

 to display additional 

information on the measurement, for example the tilt 
angle 

, the distance measured 

 and the indi-

rect height 

 Press button again to switch off horizontal 

measurement. 

Minimum/maximum measurement

This function allows the user to measure the 
minimum or maximum distance from a fixed 
measuring point. It can also be used as to determine 
spacings.

It is commonly used to measure room diagonals 
(maximum values) or horizontal distances (minimum 
values).

 Press and hold down this button until you hear 

a beep. Then slowly sweep the laser back and forth 
and up and down over the desired target point - (e.g. 
into the corner of a room). 

 Press to stop continuous measurement. The 

values for maximum and minimum distances are 
shown in the display as well as the last measured 
value in the summary line.
