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 (k, l) 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 laser control panel up and down
arrow buttons (h, i) to tilt the laser rotor
head up and down.
OR
• Use the remote control up and down
arrow buttons (p) 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.
REMOTE CONTROL: ARROW BUTTONS
The arrow buttons (p, q) are used for different
functions depending on the operating mode of the
laser unit.
In Self-Leveling Horizontal Mode:
The up and down arrows (p) adjust the length of
the laser line in Scan Mode.
The left and right arrows (q) adjust the direction
of the laser beam in Scan Mode or Pointing
Mode (0 rpm).
In Self-Leveling Vertical Mode:
The up and down arrows (p) adjust the position
of the laser line in Scan Mode.
The left and right arrows (q) move the laser
beam left and right.
In Manual Mode:
The arrow buttons (p) are used to tilt the laser
head up or down in the X or Y directions as
marked on the protective roll cage of the laser
unit.
REMOTE CONTROL: SPEED/ROTATION BUTTON
The speed/rotation button (r) is used to adjust
the speed of the laser beam through its 4 preset
speeds.
NOTE: The speed/rotation button performs the
same function as the speed/rotation button on the
control panel of the laser unit.
REMOTE CONTROL: SCAN MODE BUTTON
The scan mode button (s) is used to make the laser
head sweep back and forth, creating a short, bright
laser line. This short line is much brighter and more
visible than when the unit is in full rotation mode.
Using Scan Mode:
To enter scan mode, push and release the
scan mode button. To exit scan mode, push
and release the button again.
The size and direction of the scan zone can
be controlled with the arrow buttons on the
laser unit control panel or the remote control.
For a more detailed explanation, refer to
Arrow Buttons under Laser Control Panel
Buttons.
IMPORTANT: The remote control cannot be
used for User Defined Scan Mode.
REMOTE CONTROL: PUBLIC AND PRIVATE MODE
The DW079 Rotary Laser and the remote control
each have the capability to operate in either Public
Mode or Private Mode. For the laser and the remote
control to work together, they must both be set to
the same mode.
Public Mode
The remote control sends signals that can
potentially be received by multiple laser units as
well as other models of laser units. This is the
normal, default operating mode for the remote
control.
To activate Public Mode:
• Press and hold the speed/rotation button
(r) (open padlock symbol beside the
button) for 4 seconds.
• After an 8-hour period of inactivity, the
remote control will automatically enter
Public Mode.
