Detector Usage
This green laser level uses a specific detector for the green
Note:
beam and will not perform accurately with standard detectors.
1. Product Description
A laser detector is an indispensable accessory when using rotary laser
levels. The main function of the detector is to locate the position of
laser signals transmitted by rotary lasers. This detection quickly and
precisely provides the user with the horizontal and vertical references.
This product features a high level of sensitivity, a double-faced display,
low power consumption, good reliability and easy manipulation.

1) Rotate battery-box cap counterclockwise to open it. (A coin fits
easily into this slot.)
2) Insert 3 AAA batteries (note polarity) and then rotate battery-box
cap clockwise to close it.
3) When the battery voltage is low, the unit will display a low battery
indicator and there will be a buzzing “reminder” sound every 2-4
seconds. You will still be able to use the instrument for a short
period of time, but should change the battery soon. (Note: When
the low battery indicator is displayed, the illumination function
cannot be used. (See “Using the Illumination Function.)
Note:
a) Remove the batteries when the unit is being stored for a long time.
b) When the low battery indicator is displayed, change the battery soon.
c) Turning off the sound and illumination functions will allow you
to use the unit longer.
1) Press the power key to turn the unit
on. The LCD display will illuminate all
the indicator segments for 0.5 second
(Fig. 6). When the indicator segments
are no longer illuminated, the detector
Fig. 6 Fig. 7
is ready for use. Note: The LCD display will still have the power,
detection and sound indicators illuminated (Fig. 7).
2) Detecting horizontal laser level signals
• Place the unit in a vertical position (verify by checking the horizontal
vial bubble).
• Make sure the receiving window (on front of detector) is facing the
laser level unit and is receiving the laser signal.
- If the LCD shows a “down” arrow and emits rapid short sounds, this
indicates that the laser level signal is located below the detector (Fig. 8).
- If the LCD shows an “up” arrow and emits slow short sounds, this
indicates that the laser level signal is located above the detector (Fig. 9).
- If the LCD shows the “center” mark and emits a continuous sound,
this indicates that the laser level signal is located in the center position
on the detector.
(Fig. 10-1) LCD indicating
center position of
coarse detection
(Fig. 10-2) LCD indicating
center position of fine
detection
Note: As the laser signal gradually nears the center position on the
detector, the arrow displayed will decrease in length until just the
center position signal is displayed (Fig. 11, 12, 13-1, 13-2).
Fig. 11 Fig. 12Fig. 13-1 Fig. 13-2
3) Detecting vertical laser level signals
• Place the unit in a horizontal position.
• Make sure the receiving window (on front of
detector) is facing the laser level unit and is
receiving the laser signal.
- If the LCD shows a “left” arrow and emits rapid
short sounds, this indicates that the laser level
signal is located to the right of the detector (Fig. 14).
- If the LCD shows a “right” arrow and emits
slow short sounds, this indicates that the laser
level signal is located to the left of the detector
(Fig. 15).
- If the LCD show the “center” mark and emits a
continuous sound, this indicates that the laser
level signal is located in the center position on
the detector.
(Fig. 16-1) LCD indicating center position
of coarse detection
(Fig. 16-2) LCD indicating center position of fine detection
4) When you are finished using the detector, press the power key to
turn the unit off.
(c) Using the Sound Function
With the detector turned ON, press the
sound switch to alternate between
sound-on and sound-off.
Sound
Note: The sound indicator will also
turn on and off in the
LCD screen (Fig. 17, 18).
Fig. 17 Fig. 18
With the sound function turned on:
- If the laser signal is above the detector, a slow short sound is emitted.
- If the laser signal is below the detector, a rapid short sound is emitted.
- If the laser signal is aligned on the mid portion of the detector, a
continuous sound is emitted.
Note: Whether or not the sound function is in use, there is still indicator
sound when you press the key.
(d) Using the Coarse/Fine Detecting Switch
With the detector turned ON, press the
coarse/fine switch. This switch alternates
the unit between coarse and fine detecting.
The detector has different check and
measure precision.
(Fig. 19) LCD indicating coarse detection
(Fig. 20) LCD indicating fine detection
With the detector turned ON, press the illumination switch. This
switch turns the background illumination of the LCD on and off.
(f) Power Saving Function
When the instrument cannot receive the laser signal for 6 continuous
minutes, and there is no detection occurring during this 6 minutes,
the unit will shut off automatically to prolong the battery’s life.
(g) Low Battery Indicator
If the LCD shows a blinking battery sign, it is indicating
that you have low charge on your batteries and that
you need to change them soon (Fig. 21).
If the battery power is too low, the instrument will shut
off automatically. At this time, you must change the
batteries in order to continue using the detector.
5. Detector Maintenance
