6. Measuring conditions

Measuring range

• The measuring range is limited to 50m.

• In dark environments or at night this range may increase.

• In very light environments or when a surface has very poor reflective

properties, use a target plate.

Target surfaces

• Measuring errors will occur when pointing at colourless liquids (e.g. water)

or glass, Styrofoam or similar semi-transparent surfaces.

• Aiming at very shiny objects will deflect the laser beam which will lead to

errors.

• Measuring towards non-reflective dark surfaces may increase the

measuring time.

• Do not aim the meter directly into the sun or other bright light source.

7. General functions

Refer to the illustrations on pages 2 and 3 of this manual.

• Make sure batteries are present inside the device. Refer to §11.

Switching ON/OFF

• Press the ON/measuring button [a] to switch the device and laser on.

• Press and hold the clear/OFF button [j] to switch the device off.

Note: the laser will automatically switch of after 30s, the device will

switch off after 3 minutes of inactivity.

Clear button

• Press the clear/OFF button [j] to cancel the last action.

Reference level

• Press the reference button [h] to switch the reference level between

top [2] and bottom [3] (refer to illustration B). The device produces a

warning beep when the setting is changed.

while displaying minimum and maximum measured values [9].

• The minimum measured value is shown on the first line of the display

[10], the maximum value on the second line [11]. The last measured

value is indicated on the bottom line [12].

• To start continuous measurement, press the measuring mode button

[d] until the max./min. indications [9] are shown. Measurement starts

9. Troubleshooting

When an error occurs, an error code is displayed on the LCD. Refer to the

table below for an overview of these codes.

Code cause solution

204 calculation error repeat procedure

208 received signal too weak

measurement time too long

distance > 50m

use target plate

split up and add measurements

209 received signal too strong

(target too reflective)

use target plate

252 temperature too high let the device cool down

253 temperature too low (gently) heat up the device

255 hardware error Switch the device ON/OFF a couple of

times, remove and re-insert the

batteries.

Contact your local dealer if the error

remains.

10. Maintenance

• Do not immerse the device in any liquid.

• Wipe the device regularly with a moist, lint-free cloth. Do not use alcohol

or solvents.

• Keep the lens clean at all times to obtain best performance.

• Contact your dealer for spare parts if necessary.

11. Battery

• A flashing battery indicator [6] indicates that battery power is low and

batteries must be replaced.

• Switch the device off [10].

• Open the battery cover at the back of the meter (see illustration A) and

take out the old batteries.

• Insert two new 1.5V AAA batteries (LR03C) in accordance with the

polarity markings inside the battery compartment.

• Close the battery compartment.

• If the device is not used for a longer period of time, remove the batteries

to avoid leakage and risk of corrosion.
