. After the second measurement the
value is adopted.
Press and hold down this button to trigger continuous measurement
. Sweep the laser up and down over the ideal target point.
Press this button to end continuous measurement. The result is
displayed in the summary line, the partial results in the secondary lines.

Indirect measurement with tilt sensor
Tilt measurement
)
During tilt measurement the instrument should be held without a
transverse tilt (max. 10°).
)
If the device is tilted by more than ± 10° laterally, the display
shows infocode i 156 which means that the device has been tilted
too much.
)
The units of inclination are set in the menu.
Press this button once to activate the tilt sensor. The
symbol
appears in the display. The tilt is continuously shown as ° or % depending
on the setting.
Press to measure the inclination and the distance. See figure {L}.
Direct horizontal distance
Press this button twice and the following symbol appears in the display
.
Press this button to measure tilt and distance. The summary line
displays the result as the direct horizontal distance.
Press and hold the
key to display additional information about the
measurement, for example the inclination angle
, the measured distance
and the indirect height
.
See drawing {M}.
Double tilt measurement with one measured distance
This procedure is particularly helpful if one target point of those to be
measured cannot be reflective. The second target point can be simply
pointed at with the digital viewfinder. In this measurement it is the angle
only and not the distance that is measured and therefore no special target
is required for the laser. See drawing {S}.
Press the
button three times. The following symbol
appears in
the display.
Press the
button - tilt and distance are measured. If the tilt changes,
the device updates the resulting height value and displays it in the summary
row.
Press the
button -
only the tilt is measured and the value of the
resulting indirect height is frozen in the summary row
.
Press and hold the
button to display additional information about the
measurement, such as the horizontal distance
, the distance to the
second measured point
, or the height to the same point
(please
note the different icons).
Double tilt measurement with two measured distances
This procedure is particularly suitable if the two measured points do not
lie in the same vertical plane. The two target points are each measured
using a distance and a tilt measurement. See drawing {T}.
Press the
button four times. The following symbol
appears in
the display.
Press the button
-
tilt and distance are measured.
Press the button
-
tilt and distance are measured. The summary
