Laser Control Panel Buttons (fi g. 1)
POWER BUTTON
To completely power the laser unit off, the power
button on the control panel of the laser unit must be
pressed. The laser unit will also automatically power
off if it is left in Sleep Mode for 8 hours.
NOTE: Press the remote control power button to
put the laser unit into Sleep Mode. In Sleep Mode
all laser unit functions shut off except for a periodic
blink from the power LED on the control panel of the
laser unit. Press the remote control power button
again to "wake up" the laser unit.
Wireless Remote Control (fi g. 1)
The remote control allows one person to operate
and setup the laser from a distance. The remote
control features a power button (i), manual mode
button (j), four arrows (k, l) and an LED transmit
indicator (m).
REMOTE CONTROL: POWER BUTTON
Press the remote control power button (i) to put the
laser unit into Sleep Mode. In Sleep Mode all laser
unit functions shut off except for a periodic blink
from the power LED (f) on the control panel of the
laser unit. Press the remote control power button
again to "wake up" the laser unit.
NOTE: To completely power the laser unit off,
the power button on the control panel of the
laser unit must be pressed. The laser unit will also
automatically power off if it is left in Sleep Mode for
8 hours.
REMOTE CONTROL: MANUAL MODE BUTTON
To activate Manual Mode, press and hold the remote
control manual mode button (j) for 3 seconds.
Manual Mode must be activated to use manual
sloping. (Refer to Using Manual Slope Mode for a
complete description of this function.)
To re-engage full self-leveling, press and hold the
manual mode button again for 3 seconds.
Using Manual Slope Mode:
The DW078 Manual Slope Mode allows the
self-leveling function to be disabled in one axis
(direction) so that the laser can be sloped in that
axis. The other axis will continue to self-level,
ensuring that the laser beam is only sloping in
the expected direction.
Entering and exiting Manual Slope Mode:
• To activate Manual Slope Mode, press
and hold the remote control manual
mode button (j) for 3 seconds.
• To re-engage full self-leveling, press and
hold the manual mode button again for
3 seconds.
Setting the Slope Direction:
• When Manual Slope Mode is activated,
the unit automatically engages Manual
Y Mode. This allows the operator to slope
the laser in the direction of the Y-axis,
as indicated by the "gunsights" on the
rollcage.
In certain situations, it may be desirable to
slope the laser in the X-axis. The direction
of Manual Slope Mode can be changed
back and forth between the Y- and
X-axes as follows:
– Immediately (within 5 seconds) after
entering Manual Slope Mode, press
and hold the remote control right arrow
button to activate Manual X Mode.
– The unit can be changed back to
Manual Y Mode by immediately
pressing and holding the remote control
left arrow button.
– To change the direction of Manual
Slope Mode at a later time, re-engage
full self-leveling, then activate Manual
Slope Mode again and go through the
axis selection procedure outlined above.
The X and Y LED indicator lights on the
laser unit control panel (g, h) will indicate the
manual slope direction that is selected. The
manually controlled axis is identified by a
turned-off LED, and the self-leveling axis is
identified by a lighted LED.
Setting the Amount of Slope:
Once Manual Slope Mode is activated, the
amount of slope can be manually adjusted
using any of the following methods:
• Use the remote control up and down
arrow buttons (k) to tilt the laser rotor
head up and down.
OR
• The entire laser unit can be tipped up and
down by setting it on a sloped surface.
Make sure the laser unit is positioned so
the direction of manual sloping is lined
up in the same direction as the sloped
surface.
