HORIZON Laser System

System Description

The HORIZON laser system is a one-man leveling tool that allows one
person to take accurate, self-leveled elevation measurements up to 800
feet (250 m) away from the transmitter.
The laser signal is rotated in a 360° plane. The handheld or rod
mounted laser detector reads the laser signal. The detector indicates
the elevation information via a visual display on front and rear LCD's
and also with audible tones. Please refer to the detector operating
manual for details.
The HORIZON laser system is designed for all general construction
and agricultural leveling tasks. Set the transmitter in a central location to
provide an unobstructed continuous elevation reference. This reference
can be used by multiple persons for a variety of leveling applications
with additional laser detectors.
