than direct distance measurement. Depending on application,
greater measuring errors are possible than with direct distance
measurement. To improve the measuring accuracy, we recommend
using a tripod (accessory).
The laser beam remains switched on between the individual
measurements.
a) Indirect height measurement (see figure B)
Select the indirect height measurement
.
Ensure that the measuring tool is at the same height as the
lower measuring point. Then tilt the measuring tool around the
reference level and measure the distance “1” as for a length
measurement (displayed as a red line).

Upon completion of the measurement, the result
for the sought distance “X” is displayed in the
result line a. The measuring values for the distance
“1” and the angle “ ” are displayed in the
measured-value lines h.
b) Double indirect height measurement (see figure C)
The measuring tool can indirectly measure all distances, which
lie in the vertical level of the measuring tool.
Select the double indirect height measurement
.
Measure distances “1” and “2” in this sequence as for a
length measurement.

Pay attention that the reference plane of the
measurement (e.g. the rear edge of the measuring tool)
remains exactly at the same location for all individual
measurements within a measuring sequence.
c) Indirect length measurement (see figure D)
Select the indirect length measurement
.
Pay attention that the measuring tool is positioned at the same
height as the sought measuring point. Now, tilt the measuring
tool around the reference plane and measure distance “1” as
for a length measurement.
