4.2 Power On/Off
- To power on the device, press the 'ON' button.
- The device will automatically shut off after 120 seconds of inactivity to conserve battery power. This auto-off time can be adjusted in the settings.
5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Laser Distance Measurement Modes
The Huepar TLM60 offers 9 laser measurement modes for various applications:
- Single Distance Measurement: Measures the distance between two points.
- Area Measurement: Calculates the area of a surface.
- Volume Measurement: Calculates the volume of a space.
- Indirect Height Measurement (Pythagorean Theorem - 4 types): Calculates height indirectly using the Pythagorean theorem.
- Continuous Measurement (Min/Max): Continuously measures and displays the minimum and maximum distances as the device is moved.
To select a measurement mode, press the 'FUNC' button repeatedly until the desired icon appears on the screen. For single distance measurement, press the measurement button once to activate the laser, then press again to take a measurement. The result will be displayed instantly.

5.2 Green Cross-Line Laser Level
The integrated green cross-line laser level provides precise alignment for various tasks:
- To activate the green cross-line laser, press the dedicated laser button.
- The device projects a bright green cross-line, highly visible for tasks like hanging pictures, installing shelves, or tiling.
- The dual LCD screens display real-time inclination angles on the X and Y axes, eliminating the need for a separate bubble level.
- An inclination alarm will flash if the device's angle exceeds ±4°, indicating it is not level.
