(maximum values) or horizontal distances (minimum values).

Press and hold DIST - key {A, 1} until you hear a beep, indicating the device is in a continuous measuring mode. Then slowly sweep the laser back and forth respectively up and down over the desired target point - see figure {I, J} - (e.g. a corner in the room).

Press DIST - key {A, 1} again and the continuous measurement will be stopped. The values for maximum and minimum distances are shown in the display as well as the last measured value in the main line.

Addition/Subtraction

To add or subtract two or more measurements simply works as follows:

Measurement +/- Measurement +/- Measurement +/- …. = RESULT

Pressing the EQUAL - key {A, 5} ends the sequence and displays the result in the main line; the actual measurements are scrolled upwards in the display. Pushing the CLEAR - key {A, 9} undoes the most recent operation.

Areas and volumes can be added/subtracted in exactly the same manner.

area function. The corresponding symbol appears in the display. When both measurements have been

taken the result will be automatically calculated and GB displayed in the main line.

Press the AREA/VOLUME - key {A, 6} longer to calculate the circumference {B, 3}. Press the AREA/ VOLUME - key {A, 6} longer again to return to the previous area measurement.

If you want to measure another area, press AREA/ VOLUME - key {A, 6} again.

Special Function:Sides to be measured can be made up of several distances.

If necessary, all sides of your area measurement can be made up of several partial measurements. Choose the area mode. Press the PLUS - key {A, 3} or MINUS

-key {A, 13} before you start with the first partial measurement. Proceed with the first partial measure- ment by pressing DIST - key {A, 1}. In the display an addition or subtraction symbol appears. Make the first partial measurement, press PLUS - key {A, 3} or MINUS - key {A, 13} and make the second partial measurement. Unlimited partial measurements can be summed up or subtracted. To finish the distance measurement press the EQUAL - key { A, 5}. The second distance can be made up of partial distances with the same method. The area result is shown as usual in the main line.
