Timer Function
The timer function is useful when measuring in hard-to-reach
areas, for example, or when the measuring tool should be
kept stationary during measurement.
Select the timer function in the settings. Select the required
time period between triggering the timer and starting
measurement and confirm by pressing the measuring button
2 [ ] or button 13 [Func].
Next, press the measuring button 2 [ ] to switch on the laser
beam and focus on the target. Press the measuring button
2 [ ] once more to start the measurement. The measurement
will begin after the set time period has expired. The measured
value is displayed in the result line a.
The time period between triggering the timer and starting
measurement is displayed in the status bar at the top.
Continuous measurement and minimum/maximum
measurement are not possible with the timer function
enabled.
The timer remains enabled until the measuring tool is
switched off or until the timer is switched off in the menu
"settings".
Camera
Switching on the measuring tool automatically switches on
the camera 18. To switch it off, press the camera button 10.
Optimizing Visibility of the Laser Beam
Especially when using the measuring tool outdoors, in
sunlight and also over long distances indoors, it may be that
the laser point is not visible. The visibility of the laser point/
measuring target can be improved additionally to switching on
the camera by:
– Setting the display brightness (tool settings)
– Using the zoom by pressing button 5
