Leap Function - PRODIM Proliner Quick Start Manual

8. Leap function

The Proliner leap function has been developed to give users an unlimited reach
for measuring large objects and surfaces as well as for measurements that cannot
be done from a single Proliner position. Special leap-pods are used to serve as
reference points and to be able to connect measurements.
Start the first part of your measurement. When done, you can place the 4 leap-pods
and start the leap. The Proliner will ask you to capture the position of the 4 pods.
After the 4 pods have been registered, you can move the Proliner to its new
position. At the new position, the Proliner will ask you to capture the position of the
pods again to accurately determine its own new position.
You can now continue with the measurement. These steps can be repeated as often
as necessary. There is no limit to the number of times you can leap.
Note that the pods and the Proliner are always positioned in a stable position and:
1. Pods are not to be placed close to each other;
2. Pods are not to be placed in a single line;
3. Pods have to be placed in a symmetrical shape.

TIP: Markings instead of pods!
If it is not possible to place pods (on a wall for example) you can make
your own markings used in combination with the leap-function.
