6.2 Changing Measurement Units

Press the Reference Point / Unit Switch button repeatedly to cycle through available units: meters (m), inches (in), feet (ft), and feet + inches (ft+in).

6.3 Adjusting Reference Point

The device can measure from three different reference points: front, center (for tripod use), and rear of the device. Press and hold the Reference Point / Unit Switch button to change the reference point. An icon on the display will indicate the current reference point.

6.4 Area Measurement

1. Press the FUNC button once to enter Area measurement mode. A square icon will appear on the display.
2. Take the first length measurement (e.g., length).
3. Take the second length measurement (e.g., width).
4. The device will automatically calculate and display the area.

6.5 Volume Measurement

1. Press the FUNC button twice to enter Volume measurement mode. A cube icon will appear.
2. Take the first length measurement (e.g., length).
3. Take the second length measurement (e.g., width).
4. Take the third length measurement (e.g., height).
5. The device will automatically calculate and display the volume.

6.6 Pythagorean Measurement

This mode allows indirect measurement of heights or distances using the Pythagorean theorem.

1. Press the FUNC button three or four times to select the desired Pythagorean mode (e.g., two-point or three-point).
2. Follow the on-screen prompts to take the required measurements (e.g., hypotenuse and one leg for two-point Pythagoras).
3. The device will calculate and display the unknown side.

6.8 Mute Function

To toggle the sound (mute/unmute), briefly press the - (Subtraction/Sound) button. This is useful for operating in quiet environments.

6.9 Data Storage and Recall

The device can store up to 99 groups of measurement data.

• To Save: After a measurement, press the Save button to store the result.
• To Recall: Press and hold the Save button to enter data recall mode. Use the +, - buttons to navigate through stored measurements.

6.10 Addition and Subtraction

You can add or subtract measurements directly on the device.

• Take the first measurement.
• Press the + button for addition or - button for subtraction.
• Take the second measurement. The device will display the calculated sum or difference.

6.11 Maximum/Minimum Measurement

This mode continuously measures and displays the maximum and minimum distances, useful for diagonal measurements or determining clearances.

1. Press and hold the READ button to enter continuous measurement mode.
2. The display will show the current, maximum, and minimum measurements.
3. Press READ again to stop continuous measurement.

6.12 Self-Calibration

The device features automatic calibration. If you suspect an accuracy issue, refer to the full user manual for specific self-calibration steps, which typically involve measuring a known distance and adjusting the offset.
