ARROW BUTTONS
The arrow buttons (G, H) are used for different functions depending on the operating mode of the laser unit.
In Self-Leveling Horizontal Mode:
The arrows buttons adjust the direction of the laser beam in Scan Mode or Pointing Mode (0 rpm).
In Self-Leveling Vertical Mode:
The arrow buttons move the laser beam left and right.
In Manual Mode:
The arrow buttons are used to tilt the laser head.
NOTE: Refer to Using the Wireless Remote Control for a full description of Manual Mode.
SPEED/ROTATION BUTTON
The speed/rotation button (E) is used to adjust the rotation speed of the laser beam through its 4 preset speeds.
The head speed will cycle through 4 speeds, then repeat the sequence as the speed/rotation button is pressed.
REMEMBER:
Slow speed = Bright Beam Fast Speed = Solid Beam NOTE: The speed/rotation button performs the same function as the speed/rotation button on the remote control.
SCAN MODE BUTTON
The scan mode button (F) is used to make the laser head sweep back and forth, creating a short, bright laser line. This short line is much brighter and more visible than when the unit is in full rotation mode.
Using Scan Mode:
To enter Scan Mode, push and release the scan mode button. To exit Scan Mode, push and release the button again.
The size and direction of the scan zone can be controlled with the arrow buttons on the laser unit control panel or the remote control. For a more detailed explanation, refer to Using the Wireless Remote Control.
The size and direction of the scan zone can also be controlled manually with the User Defined Scan Mode:
1.Set the laser unit at 0 rpm (pointer mode).
2.Manually rotate the laser head to position the laser beam at one edge of the desired scan zone.
3.Press and hold the scan mode button on the laser unit control panel. While holding down the scan mode button, manually rotate the laser head to the opposite edge of the desired scan zone.
4.Release the scan mode button.
5.The laser will scan between the two selected points.
NOTE: If the scan mode button is pressed and held, but the laser head is not manually rotated, after four seconds the unit will enter Private Mode or No Remote Mode as described below.
IMPORTANT: The remote control cannot be used for User Defined Scan Mode.
PUBLIC, PRIVATE AND NO REMOTE MODES
The DW079 Rotary Laser and the DW0794 Remote Control each have the capability to operate in either Public Mode or Private Mode. For the laser and the remote control to work together, they must both be set to the same mode. The laser unit can also be set to No Remote Mode, which causes it to ignore all remote control commands.
Public Mode
The laser unit can receive commands from any DEWALT laser remote control, and even from some other brands of
