(d) Detection

1. Coarse detection

• Aim the receiving window at the rotating laser. Loosen the adjusting bolt and move the detector up and down to receive the laser signal transmitted by the rotating laser.

• When the detector displays like Fig. (A), move the detector slightly down as indicated by the arrow. When it displays like Fig. (B), move it slightly up as indicated by the arrow.

• When Fig. (C) is displayed, the

detector is level with the rotating laser beam..

• Tighten the adjusting bolt and mark the position on the grade rod next to the rabbet. This mark will be the horizontal reference in the coarse mode.

2. Fine detection

1. power symbol

2. fine detection symbol

• Press coarse/fine detection button. The detector is ready for fine detection.

• Move the detector slightly up and down like the coarse detection procedure.

• When the detector displays as shown in the figure, it is level with the laser beam.

• Tighten the adjusting bolt and mark the position on the grade rod next to the rabbet. This mark will be the horizontal reference in the fine detection.

(e) Sound function

• If the detector is working in a situation where it is difficult to use the display function, the sound function can be used instead.

• Press the sound function button. The sound symbol is displayed and the detector is ready for sound function. The detector then conducts detection through sound (horn) signals.

• When the sound signal is a short sound, move the detector slightly upwards.

• When the instrument makes a rapid sound, move it slightly downwards.

• When the instrument makes a continuous sound, it is level with the laser beam.

• If there is no sound heard, the detector is not receiving the laser signal.
