    DMLASER FORENSIC PROJECTION LASER The DMLASER is a durable, lightweight “torpedo” style level with a red laser beam that can be used in a variety of applications. This state-of-the-art level projects a highly visible red dot on almost any surface with accuracy of ±3/8 in. @ 50 ft.

    DMLASER features Using the DMLASER Battery Installation Remove battery door on side of unit and put in two alkaline “AAA” batteries according to the polarity markings on the battery cover door. Replace the battery door. Note: Used (discharged) batteries are hazardous waste and should be disposed of properly. Power On/Off: Press power switch to project laser line or point.

    Technical Specifications Laser Wavelength 650nm ± 10 Laser Classification Class IIIa Maximum Power Output ≤5mW Accuracy ± 3/8"/50 ft. (±0.5mm/m) Interior Range Up to 100 ft. (30m) depending upon light conditions Power Supply 2 “AAA” alkaline batteries (included) Battery Life Approx.
  • Page 6: Dmangle Angle Finder

    DMANGLE ANGLE FINDER The DMANGLE is a precision instrument used for measuring absolute and relative angles. Its three (3) Magnetic edges allow it to be attached to magnetic or steel surfaces or the DMLASER. OPERATION Absolute Level: To power on, push the LEVEL button.

    DMRANGE / DRF100 RANGE FINDER Use the DRF100 as an alternative to conventional tape measures. Five measurement modes: Area, volume, two-point triangulation, three-point triangulation, • automatic height. Continuous Distance Measurement (tracking) mode, with display of Max and Min values. • Adds/subtracts next measurement to/from previous one.
  • Page 8: Front-Panel Controls

    • Continuous on-screen digital readout of DMRANGE’s angle with respect to the horizontal in most measurement modes • Addition, subtraction, and continuous measurement (tracking) modes ideal for layout work • Fast response time • Automatically stores 20 most recent measurements/calculations •...

    DISPLAY INDICATORS AND ICONS 1. Measurements referenced from top of DMRANGE unit’s housing 2. Flashes when laser is on 3. Measurements referenced from bottom of DMRANGE housing or bottom of extension ruler 4. Operating in Direct or Continuous Measurement Mode 5.
  • Page 10: Setup: Install Batteries

    SETUP: Install Batteries The DMRANGE unit must have the two supplied “AAA” batteries installed in a compartment in the back of the unit. To open the compartment, use the included flat-head screwdriver to loosen the single screw holding the battery compartment cover in place (see photo at right). After opening the extension ruler, remove the cover and set it aside.
  • Page 11: Choosing A Measurement Reference

    If the laser has timed out (i.e., it has been on for more than 30 seconds), or if you have just made a measurement, you will not see a red dot on the target and there will be no flashing icon on the display.
  • Page 12: Measuring Distances

    MEASURING DISTANCES Direct Measurements To measure the distance to a target: 1. Power on the DMRANGE unit and select a measurement unit, an appropriate measurement reference (in most cases, the bottom of the DMRANGE unit) and an appropriate backlight state (on for indoor work, off for outdoor work).
  • Page 13: Indirect Measurements Of Height Or Length Using Triangulation

    For example, consider how the DMRANGE unit could speed up the measurements needed to lay out a long brick wall of multiple sections that are not in a straight line. Once stakes, strings and frame are in place, the DMRANGE unit could accurately measure the length of each section by shooting from one stake to the next.
  • Page 14: Measuring Areas & Perimeters

    • Triangulation with three inputs. This kind of distance measurement can be made for distances that do not present you with a right angle. A good example is measuring the height of a building from another building across the street through an open fourth-floor window. Because the DMRANGE unit and the bottom of the target building are not both at ground level, you must measure one common leg “B1/B2”...

    3. Holding the bottom of the DMRANGE unit against the floor of the room or space, aim the laser pointer at the ceiling and press the MEASURE/ON button. The distance measured will appear on the top line of the display, the top front “width” leg of the cube will stop flashing, and the top right “depth”...

    Replace the batteries when the on-screen “battery” icon indicates that their charge has been depleted. Use Alkaline batteries only. To avoid having old batteries leak and ruin the DMRANGE unit, remove the batteries when you do not expect to use the instrument for a long period of time (several months).
