2. PREPARATION FOR USE
2.1. Initial checks
Before shipping, the instrument has been checked from an electric as well as mechanical point of view. All possible precautions have been taken so that it is delivered undamaged.
However, we recommend generally checking the instrument in order to detect possible damage suffered during transport. In case anomalies are found, immediately contact the forwarding agent.
We also recommend checking that the packaging contains all components indicated in § 9. In case of discrepancy, please contact the Dealer. In case the instrument should be returned, please follow the instructions given in § 10.1
2.2. Instrument power supply
The instrument is supplied with two 1.5V AA LR06 batteries, included in the package. Battery life equals about 8000 measurements. The “ flashes on the display when the battery is flat. Replace the battery by following the instructions given in § 6
2.3. Storage
In order to guarantee precise measurement, after a long storage time under extreme environmental conditions, wait for the instrument to come back to normal condition (see § 8.1). Given its simplicity, the instrument does not need any periodic calibration

3.3. General description of the instr ument
iDM70 has the following functions: Direct measurement of distances expressed in
m/in/ft and ft+in
Measurement of area and volume Indirect 2- and 3-point distance measurement
(Pitagora)
Distance measurement in continuous mode Sum/difference of measured distance values Measurement of tilt angle Distance measurement with dimensions Setting of measuring reference Setting of timer for measurements Connection to Bluetooth devices, iPhone, iPad,
iPod touch, Android via Meterbox APP
Activation of the laser pointer for measurement Integrated air bubble level Partial operations with use of internal memory (max
20 locations)
Display backlight Activation of buzzer upon key pressing
The model is provided with a wide display, a comfortable membrane keyboard with 13 function keys and a class II laser pointer for a precise definition of the application point.
The measurement of distance between two points (with a measuring range from 5cm to 70m) is carried out by reflection of the laser light from the surface hit to the receiving sensor located in the upper part of the instrument.
Measurement can be influenced by the brightness of the environment in which it is performed and by the type of surface hit by the laser pointer.
