instrument will give acoustical signal. The result is displayed immediately.
Continuous Measurement
Press and hold the button (1) for about 2 seconds to start continuous measuring.
Minimum/ Maximum measurement
This function allows the user to measure the minimum or maximum distance from a fixed measuring point. It is commonly used to mea-
sure room diagonals (maximum values) or horizontal distances (minimum values). Press and hold down the button (1), until you will hear
acoustical signal. Then slowly sweep the laser back and forth and up and down over the desired target point (e.g. into the corner of a room).
Press (1) to stop continuous measurement. The values for maximum and minimum distances are shown on the display as well as the last
measured value in the main line.
FUNCTIONS
Addition/Substruction
Press button (5): next measurement is added to the previous one. Press button (5): next measurement is substracted from the
previous one. To complete this function press button (1). Repeat this function to measure distances. The result is desplayed in
the main display area. Previous measured value is displayed in the first line, last measured value is displayed in the second line.
To finish working in this mode press button (4).
Area
Press the button (2) once.The symbol "area" is displayed. Press button (1) to take the first measurement (for example, length).
Measured value is displayed in the second line.
Press button (1) to take the second measurement (for example, width). Measured value is displayed in the second line. First
measurement (e.g. length) is displayed in the first line. The result of measured area is displayed in the main display area.
Addition / Subtraction of areas
Area measuring – see Area.
Take the first measurement of area. Press button (5) to enter into the Addition mode or button (5) once more to enter into the
Subtraction mode. Area value is displayed in the second line.
Press button (1) to take the first measurement (for example, length). Press button (1) to take the second measurement (for
example, width).
After the completion of area, press button (1), the result of addition/substraction of areas is displayed in the main display area. If
the measurements are not finished, press button (5) (addition) or (5) (substraction) to continue calculations.
Volume
For volume measurements, press button (2) twice until the indicator for volume measurement appears on the display.
Press button (1) to take the first measurement (for example, length). Measured value is displayed in the second line.
Press button (1) to take the second measurement (for example, width). Measured value is displayed in the second line. Area
value is displayed in the first line.
Press button (1) to take the third measurement (for example, height). Measured value is displayed in the second line.
The volume value will be displayed in the main display area and the previous area value is displayed in the first line.
Indirect measurement
Pythagorean measurement is used in the condition that the objective needing to be measured is covered or has no effective
reflecting surface and can't be measured directly.
Make sure you adhere to the prescribed sequence of measurement:
All target points must be in a horizontal or vertical plane.
The best results are achieved when the instrument is rotated about a fixed point (e.g. with the positioning bracket fully folded out
and the instrument placed on a wall) or the instrument is mounted on a tripod.
The minimum / maximum function can be used. The minimum value must be used for measurements at right angles to the target;
the maximum distance for all other measurements.
The best results are achieved when the instrument is rotated about a fixed point (e.g. with the positioning bracket fully folded out
and the instrument placed on a wall) or the instrument is mounted on a tripod.
Continious measurements can be used. This function is used for minimum/maximum measurements. The minimum value must
be used for measurements at right angles to the target; the maximum distance for all other measurements. Be sure that the first
measurement and distance are measured at right angles. Use continious measurement function.
Indirect measurement – determing a distance using 2 auxilary measurements
This function is used when height and distance can't be measured directly.
Press button (2) 3 times. The symbol "triangle" is displayed. The distance to be measured is blinking in the symbol triangle. Press
button (1) to take distance measuring (hypothenuse of triangle). The result is displayed in the second line. This measurement
can be taken in the indirect measurement function. Press and hold button (1) for 2 sec. After second pressure of the button (1)
maximum value is fixed.
The second distance to be measured is blinking in the symbol triangle. Press button (1) to take distance measuring. There is
a right angle between laser beam and the length you need to measure. That's why you should work in continious mode. Press
and hold button (1) for 2 sec. After second pressure of the button (1) maximum distance is fixed. The result of the measurement
is displayed in the second line. Previous measurement is displayed in the first line. The result of the function is displayed in the
main display area.
Indirect measurement – determing a distance using 3 measurements
This function is used when it's necessary to measure diagonals of rectangular areas, and also for calculation of the length of frameworks,
inclined distances and so on.
Press button (2) 4 times. The symbol "triangle" is displayed. The distance to be measured is blinking in the symbol triangle. Press button (1)
to take distance measuring (side of the triangle) . The result of the function is displayed in the second line. This measurement can be taken
in the mode of continious measurement. Press and hold button (1) for 2 sec. After second pression of the button (1) maximum value is fixed.
The second distance to be measured is blinking in the symbol triangle. It's very important to have right angle between laser beam and the
length you need to measure. That's why you should work in continious mode. Press and hold button (1) for 2 sec. After second pressure of
the button (1) maximum distance is fixed. The result of the function is displayed in the main display area. Previous measurement is displayed
in the first line.
WORKING WITH THE MOBILE APPLICATION (OPTION. CHECK AVAILABILITY OF THIS FUNCTION WITH THE
SUPPLIER)
The measured distances can be transferred to a mobile device. To get started, install the ADA PHOTO PLAN software. Search
online app stores.
In the application, you can take photos of the measured objects or a drawing. On the lines indicating the dimensions, you can
put the values obtained from the laser distance meter.
