Menu functions
Presettings
The menu allows selection of the settings that will
remain in memory after the instrument is switched
off.
Navigation in the Menu
Press the MENU -key {A, 10} repeatedly to scroll
through the possible menu functions (UNIT, OFFSET,
TRIPOD, RESET).
When the desired menu option appears, select it with
the EQUAL - key {A, 5}, scroll through the possible
settings with the PLUS - key {A, 3} or the MINUS -
key {A, 13} and store the selected setting with the
EQUAL - key {A, 5}. Press CLEAR - key {A, 9} to leave
the menu without saving any changes in the settings.
Selecting Units
"UNIT" blinks in the display.
Possible units:
Measure with offset
An offset automatically adds or subtracts a value to/
from ALL measurements. With this feature toler-
ances can be taken into consideration e.g. between
unfinished and finished dimensions.
Select the menu function OFFSET {B, 20} (OFFSET
blinks in the display), confirm with the EQUAL - key
{A, 5}. Adjust the OFFSET with the PLUS - key {A, 3}
or the MINUS - key {A, 13}.
By holding the keys down, the setting values will
increase/decrease faster. Once you have entered the
proper offset confirm your selection with the EQUAL
- key {A, 5}. As long as an OFFSET {B, 20} is added/
subtracted the symbol is visible on the display.
Measuring with tripod
Using a tripod eliminates shaking when measuring
over long distances. On the back of the instrument is
an industry standard ¼"-threaded hole for use with a
camera tripod mounting screw. For correct measure-
ments the reference needs to be adapted. Select the
menu function TRIPOD {A, 8} ("triPod" blinks in the
display) and confirm with the EQUAL - key {A, 5}.
