Indication E1

If this message follows the software version indication after switching on the instrument, a loss of all parameters has occurred.

• Press any key.

All parameters are then set back to the default values.

•Now all settings must be checked to see if the previously entered values are still correct.

The values may have to be reentered.

You can continue with your normal working routine.

If E-1 appears repeatedly when switching the instrument on, the lithium battery may need replacement (service life approx. 7 years).

•Proceed as described above.

•Work normally after checking the settings.

•Have the battery replaced by Leica service as soon as possible.

LEDs (40), (41) in the coarse feed buttons are lit at the same time.
