If set up within the self-levelling range, the Zone40 T automatically levels to create an accurate horizontal plane of laser light. Once the Zone40 T has levelled, the head starts rotating and the Zone40 T is ready for use. 30 seconds after the Zone40 T has completed the levelling, the Height of Instrument Alert (H.I.Alert) function becomes active and protects the Zone40 T against changes in elevation...
