Setting the unit for tilt measurements
The following units can be set for tilt measurements:
Display illumination (
)
The brightness of the display has six levels of adjustment. Step 6 is the
brightest and step 1 is the darkest setting.
Long range Mode (
)
Unfavourable conditions (strong sunlight or a very weak reflective target
surface) may reduce the range of the device, in spite of this the long range
mode allows you to take measurements over longer distances. The use of
a tripod and measurement initiation by pressing the
key are recom-
mended when measurements over 30m are made over longer time periods
in these conditions. (For details see Technical specifications)
)
The settings are reset when the device is switched off.
Measuring with the tripod (
)
The reference point may be adjusted to the tripod mount if the user
requires a measurement from the actual mounting grommit versus the
front or back of the DISTO. To do this select the
symbol in this menu
item. You can switch the reference on the tripod on or off. The setting can
be seen on the display
.
