Features and Functions

07. Audio Port—is the opening the

sound comes out of.

08. Battery Housing—holds three AA

alkaline or Ni-Cd batteries. The

battery-housing door is also used

to attach the receiver to a custom

grade rod, magnetic mount, or the

general-purpose clamp.

09. Remote Contacts—provides

grade-display signals to a radio

remote control.

10. Photocell—detects the laser beam

when it strikes the receiver. The

photocell allows you to face the

LCD and LEDs and have access to

the control buttons, regardless of

your position relative to the laser

beam. If the receiver does not

detect the laser beam for 30

minutes, the receiver shuts off

automatically.

1. Power/Audio Button—is a multi-

functional button that turns the

receiver on/off and allows you to

adjust the audio volume.

2. Grade-Sensitivity Button—allows

you to cycle through receiver’s on-

grade sensitivities.

The hand-held grade sensitivities

include fine: 1.5 mm (1/16 in.);

medium: 3 mm (1/8in.); and coarse:

6 mm (1/4in.). The machine grade

sensitivities include: fine 10 mm

(3/8in.) and coarse: 25 mm (1 in.). This button also allows you to select

ultra-fine: 0.1 mm (0.004 in.) and super-fine: 1 mm (1/32 in.) grade

sensitivity when used with the power/audio button. The machine grade-

sensitivity mode has an offset for on-grade. On-grade is 50 mm (2 in.)

below the top of the receiver and is not centered in the photocell.

3. Offset Distance Scale—coincides with the LCD bar display and is used

to work at an offset distance from on-grade. Three offset scales, which

include metric, hundredths of a foot, and inches, are available. Simply

place the decal appropriate for your needs on the right side of the LCD.

4. Marking Notches—align with the on-grade portion of the photocells

and are used to mark elevation readings. The marking notches are 50 mm

(2 in.) from the top of the receiver.

5. Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)—shows the elevation, grade sensitivity,

audio, out-of-level, and battery status.

6. Groove—is the channel that the grade-rod tongue fits into so the receiver

can be attached to the grade rod or magnetic mount.

How to Use the Receiver

Installing the Batteries

Note: The receiver beeps quickly when the receiver is above the laser

beam, slowly when below it, and continuously when centered in the laser

beam or on grade.

Selecting the Grade Sensitivity

The receiver always starts up in the last selected on-grade sensitivity (the

factory default setting is fine).

1. Press the grade-sensitivity button repeatedly to cycle through the on-grade

sensitivities, which include hand-held: fine, medium, coarse; and

machine-mounted: fine, and coarse.

2. To select ultra-fine or super-fine on-grade sensitivities, press and hold the

grade-sensitivity and power/audio buttons for 2 seconds.

Note: As you hold the buttons, the

receiver cycles through the ultra-fine

and super-fine on-grade sensitivities.

3. Release both buttons when the

sensitivity that is appropriate for

your application needs appears in

the LCD.

Selecting the LED Settings

The LEDs show the position of the

receiver relative to the laser beam. Three LED settings can be selected from:

bright, dim, and off. Dim is the factory default setting. Turning off the

LEDs extends battery life.

Rod-Mounted and Hand-Held Mode

The red LEDs flash when the receiver is within 13 mm (1/2in.) of being on

grade. The low red LEDs light continuously when the receiver is between

13 and 25 mm (1/2in. and 1 in.) of being above the laser beam. The high

red LEDs light continuously when the receiver is between or 13 and 95 mm

(1/2and 33/4in.) below the laser beam. The green LEDs flash when the

receiver is on grade.

11. LEDs—show the position of the

receiver relative to the laser beam

(above grade, on grade, or below

grade).

12. Remote Mounting Channels—

provide a recess for the radio remote control mounting guides to fit

into so the radio remote control can be attached to the receiver.

Learning the Receiver Functions

Standard

Turning On/Off the Receiver

1. Press the power/audio button to turn on the receiver.

Note: When the receiver is initially turned on, all LCD symbols and

LEDs are turned on for one second (diagnostic mode). After the

diagnostic mode is complete, all the symbols of the last selected modes

appear.

2. Press and hold the power/audio button for 2 seconds to turn off

the receiver.

Selecting the Audio Function

The receiver always starts up in the last selected audio level (the factory

default setting is soft).

1. Press the power/audio button repeatedly to cycle through the audio levels,

which include off, soft, and loud.

1. Turn the battery-housing knob

counterclockwise.

2. Remove the battery-housing door.

3. Insert the battery as shown noting

the plus (+) and minus (–) diagram

inside the housing.

4. Put the battery-housing door in

place. Push in the knob and turn

it clockwise.

Machine-Mounted Mode

In fine mode, the red LEDs flash when the laser beam is more than 15 mm

(9/16 in.) of being on grade. In coarse mode, the red LEDs flash when the

laser beam is more than 20 mm (13/16 in.) of being on grade. The low red

LEDs light continuously when the laser beam is between 15 and 25 mm

(9/16 and 1 in.) of being on grade in fine mode, and between 20 and 25 mm

(13/16 and 1 in.) of being on grade in coarse mode. The high red LEDs light

continuously when the laser beam is between 15 and 95 mm (9/16 and 33/4

in.) of being on grade in fine mode, and between 20 and 95 mm (13/16 and

33/4in.) of being on grade in coarse mode.

The LEDs can also be used for lost-beam indication. If the LEDs are turned

on, the top or bottom red LEDs flash for 20 seconds to show the direction

to move the receiver to reacquire the beam. For additional lost-beam

indication, a bank of up or down arrows in the LCD flashes for 20 seconds

to show the direction to move the receiver to reacquire the beam.

1. Simultaneously press the grade-

sensitivity and power/audio buttons

repeatedly to cycle through the LED

settings: bright, dim, and off.

Advanced

Turning On/Off Line Alert

Line alert is used primarily when the laser is in vertical mode to monitor the

“on-grade” alignment of the laser beam.

The receiver always starts up in the last selected line-alert mode. If the

receiver starts up with the line alert on, all LEDs flash (bright setting)

simultaneously and the receiver beeps for 3 seconds.

Turning On/Off the “Audio On-Grade” Monitoring Mode

The audio on-grade monitoring mode allows you to use the audio function

to monitor whether or not the receiver is on grade. When the monitoring

mode is off, the receiver beeps when the receiver is on grade. When the

monitoring mode is on, the receiver is silent when the receiver is on grade.

The receiver always starts up in last selected monitoring mode.

Attaching the Receiver to the…

General-Purpose Clamp

The general-purpose clamp attaches to the receiver so the receiver can be

used with a grade rod or wooden pole.

The magnetic mount attaches to the receiver for use on machines or for

special vertical applications mounted to a tripod or a batter board.

1. Press and hold the grade-sensitivity

button for 5 seconds to enter the line

alert mode.

Note: The receiver cycles through the

line alert settings, which include on

and off, every 3 seconds.

Note: When line alert is on, all

LEDs flash simultaneously and the

receiver beeps for 3 seconds. When

line alert is off, both red LEDs flash for 3 seconds.

Note: On-grade monitoring starts after 5 seconds of a continuous on-

grade condition. To confirm that the laser beam is still aligned to on-

grade, all LEDs flash once per second every 10 seconds. If the laser beam

is disturbed, blocked, or moved from on-grade for more than 5 seconds,

the LEDs start flashing. After 45 seconds of the beam being disturbed

continuously, the receiver starts beeping once per second, regardless of the

audio setting.

1. When turning on the receiver,

continue to press and hold the

power/audio button for 2 seconds to

enter the audio on-grade monitoring

is off, the horn symbol in the LCD

is on continuously.

2. Press the power/audio button to turn off the monitoring mode.

Resetting the Factory Default Settings
