Measuring to an inner and outer corner:
Although the problem is reduced with a beam that uses a smaller measuring area, the error can not
be completely eliminated. The most accurate solution to measure to tight corners and eliminate
errors caused by beam divergence, is to use an offset measurement method such as that used in the
field application software.
Do the following:
1. Measure two points on the face of the building.
2. Aim the instrument at the corner to store the correct horizontal and vertical angle.
