For several subsequent length measurements, the last meas-
ured results are displayed in the measured-value lines a.
Continuous Measurement (Tracking)
For continuous measurements, the measuring tool can be
moved relative to the target, whereby the measuring value is
updated approx. every 0.5 seconds. In this manner, as an ex-
ample, you can move a certain distance away from a wall,
while the actual distance can always be read.
For continuous measurements, firstly select the length meas-
uring mode and then press the measuring button 7 until the
"indicator for continuous measurement"
display. The laser is switched on and the measurement starts
immediately.
The current measured value is dis-
played in the result line c.
Briefly pressing the measuring button
7 ends the continuous measurement.
The last measured value is displayed
in the result line c. Pressing the meas-
uring button 7 for several seconds re-
starts a continuous measuring run.
Continuous measurement automatically switches off after
5 min. The last measured value remains indicated in the result
line c.
Minimum/Maximum Measurement (see figure F–G)
The minimum measurement is used to determine the shortest
distance from a fixed reference point. It is used, as an exam-
ple, for determining plumb lines or horizontal partitions.
The maximum measurement is used to determine the greatest
distance from a fixed reference point. It is used, as an exam-
ple, for determining diagonals.
For simple minimum/maximum measurement, firstly select
"length measurement mode" and then press button 13. "min"
is displayed in result line c for minimum measurement. For
maximum measurements, press button 13 again, so that
"max" is displayed in the result line. Then press the measur-
ing button 7. The laser is switched on and the measurement
starts.
Move the laser back and forth over the requested target (e.g.,
the room corner for determining the diagonal) in such a man-
ner that the reference point of the measurement (e.g., the tip
of the positioning pin 18) always remains at the same loca-
tion.
Depending on the set mode, the mini-
mum or maximum value is displayed
in the result line c. It is always over-
written, when the current length
measurement value is less than the
present minimal or larger than the
present maximal value. The maximal
("max"), the minimal ("min") and
the current measuring value are displayed in the measured-
value lines a.
To end the minimum/maximum measurement, briefly press
the measuring button 7. Pressing the measuring button again
starts a new measurement.

The minimum/maximum measurement can also be used for
length measurements within other measuring modes (e.g. ar-
ea/surface measurement). For this, press button 13 once for
minimal measurement and twice for maximal measurement
each time when determining individual measured values.
Then press the measuring button 7 to switch the laser beam
on. Move the measuring tool in such a manner that the desired
minimum or maximum value is measured, and press the
measuring button 7 to take over the minimum or maximum
value into the current calculation.
For time-delayed length measurements and when in mark-out
appears on the
mode, minimum/maximum measurements are not possible.
The minimum/maximum measurement automatically switch-
es off after 5 min.
Area Measurement
For area/surface measurements, press button 4 until the indi-
cator for area measurement
Afterwards, measure the length and the width, one after an-
other, in the same manner as a length measurement. The laser
beam remains switched on between both measurements.
Volume Measurement
For volume measurements, press button 4 until the indicator
for volume measurement
Afterwards, measure the length, width and the height, one af-
ter another, in the same manner as for a length measurement.
The laser beam remains switched on between all three meas-
urements.
Values above 999999 m
"––––" appear on the display. Divide the volume to be
measured into individual measurements; their values can
then be calculated separately and then summarized.
Indirect Length Measurement (see figures H–K)
The indirect length measurement is used to measure distanc-
es that cannot be measured directly because an obstacle
would obstruct the laser beam or no target surface is available
as a reflector. Correct results are achieved only when the right
angles required for the respective measurement are exactly
adhered to (Pythagorean Theorem).
Pay attention that the reference point of the measurement
(e.g. the rear edge of the measuring tool) remains exactly at

Upon completion of the second meas-
urement, the surface is automatically
calculated and displayed in the result
line c. The individual measured values
are displayed in the measured-value
lines a.

Upon completion of the third meas-
urement, the volume is automatically
calculated and displayed in the result
line c. The individual measured values
are displayed in the measured-value
lines a.
