4. Setup

4.1 Charging the Device

The CIGMAN CD-60 is equipped with a built-in 850 mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery. Before first use, fully charge the device.

• Connect the provided Type-C charging cable to the device's Type-C port.
• Connect the other end of the cable to a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port.
• The battery indicator on the display will show charging progress. A full charge takes approximately 4 hours and allows for about 8000 continuous measurements.

4.2 Power On/Off and Unit Selection

• Power On: Press the MEAS button.
• Power Off: Press and hold the OFF/CLEAR button. The device will also automatically power off after a period of inactivity to save battery.
• Unit Selection: While the device is on, press the Unit Switch/Benchmark button to cycle through measurement units: Meters (M), Inches (in), and Feet (Ft).

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Basic Measurement

The CD-60 supports both bidirectional and unidirectional measurement.

• Bidirectional Measurement: The device measures from both ends simultaneously, providing a total distance. This is ideal for measuring distances between two points without needing to move the device.
• Unidirectional Measurement: The device measures from one end (front or rear) to a target. Select the desired laser (front or rear) using the Unit Switch/Benchmark button.
• To take a measurement, aim the laser at the target and press the MEAS button. The result will be displayed on the screen.

5.2 Measurement Modes

Press the FUNC/RECORD button to cycle through the various measurement modes.

• Distance Length: Standard single measurement.
• Continuous Measurement: Provides real-time distance updates as you move the device.
• Wall Area: Measures the area of a wall by taking height and length measurements.
• Spatial Volume: Calculates the volume of a space by measuring length, width, and height.
• Pythagorean Measurement: Utilizes the Pythagorean theorem to calculate indirect distances (e.g., height of a building). There are multiple Pythagorean modes (Pythagorean 1, 2, 3, 4) for different scenarios.
• Angle Measurement: Uses the electronic angle sensor to display the device's tilt angle.
• Midpoint Search: Helps locate the midpoint between two points.
