TruPulse L2 Display The TruPulse L2 is equipped dual color display and can show information in Red or black. With a built-in light sensor that reads ambient light. The internal software adjusts the red brightness intensity based on the measured light reading.
The unit continuously acquires targets and displays measurements Mode while the FIRE button is held down. Inclination The angle of inclination between the TruPulse L2 at level and the target. Measurement Slope Distance Straight line distance between the TruPulse L2 and the target.
In Figure 9, F-06.0 is used as an example. Release the FIRE button to start normal operation. Factory Reset It is possible to restore the TruPulse L2 factory default settings. Figure 9 Restoring the default settings affects some of the system setup options.

Laser Technology, Inc. TruPulse L2 User’s Manual 1st Edition Section 5 - Measurement Modes Page 14 Distance and Inclination Measurements Workflow Figure 13 Inclination Percent Slope Percent slope, indicated by the % indicator, is a calculation equal to 100 times the tangent of the inclination angle.
Height Measurements involve a simple routine that prompts you to take 3 shots to the target: Horizontal Distance, Inclination Angle_1 and Inclination Angle_2. The TruPulse L2 uses these results to calculate the height of the target. In the routine, the next measurement required will auto sequence once the first measurement is acquired.
Laser Technology, Inc. TruPulse L2 User’s Manual 1st Edition Section 5 - Measurement Modes Page 17 Height Routine (2-pt Routine) This measurement routine is ideal for leaning objects and requires a clear line of sight for both shots. Press Up or Down buttons until the Vertical Distance (VD) indicator is displayed.
The simple routine prompts you to take two shots to targets: “Shot 1" and “Shot 2". The TruPulse L2 uses the results to calculate values between the two points: slope distance, inclination, horizontal distance, and vertical distance from Shot 1 to Shot 2.
Section 6 - System Setting Menu Targeting Modes The TruPulse L2 has five Target Modes which allow you to select or eliminate targets and to take the most accurate measurements possible in various field conditions. The selected Target Mode remains active until you select a different Target Mode.
