1 INTRODUCTION Thank you for choosing one of the Spectra Precision Lasers from the Trimble family of precision lasers. The grade laser is an easy-to-use tool that offers accurate horizontal, vertical and sloped laser reference up to 1300 ft (400 m) away using a receiver. 2 FOR YOURE SAFETY For hazardless and safe operation, read all the user guide instructions. • Use of this product by people other than those trained on this product may result in exposure to hazardous laser light.
4 HOW TO USE THE LASER SYSTEM 4.1 POWERING THE LASER 4.1.1 Batteries WARNING Ni-MH batteries may contain small amounts of harmful substances. Be sure to charge the battery before using it for the first time, and after not using it for an extended length of time. Charge only with specified chargers according to device manufacturer‘s instructions. Do not open the battery, dispose of in fire or short circuit; it may ignite, explode, leak or get hot causing personal injury.
4.3 ST802/ST805 SIGNAL TRANSPORTER 4.3.1 POWERING THE ST802/ST805 1. Open the battery door using a coin or similar pry device to release the battery door tab on the ST802/ST805. ST802/ST805 will be shipped with alkaline batteries. Rechargeable batteries can be used optional but need to be charged externally. 2. Insert two AA batteries noting the plus (+) and minus (-) diagrams inside the battery housing. 3. Close the battery door. Push down until it “clicks” into the locked position. 4.3.
5.2 Features and Functions 5.2.1 Standard Display The remote control mirrors the functionality of the laser keypad Battery status laser HI alert function is activated Mask selection Rotation speed Battery Status Remote Control Status Radio Connectivity Button 1: uickly press and release starts the Q MENU entry. Button 2: Quickly press and release starts the grade entering mode. Button 3: Quickly press and release activates/ deactivates the manual mode.
Pic 6 Set Digit Note: The bubble symbols at the laser and remote control LCD will flash until the laser has been self-leveled to the requested grade position. 5.3.2 X-Y-grade entering – Step and Go mode How to change to ‚Step and Go‘ mode see chapter 8.5 Quickly press and release button 2 (Pic 7) starts the grade entering mode. Both grade values will be shown.
Pic 9 Horizontal manual Pic 10 Vertical manual In Manual mode (horizontal), the Y-axis can be sloped by pressing the Up-(5) and Down-Arrow-(8) buttons on the laser‘s keypad or the remote control. Additionally, the X-axis can be sloped by pressing the Left-(6) and Right-(7) Arrow-buttons on the laser or remote control. In vertical mode, the up and down arrow buttons adjust the Z-axis slope, and the left and right arrow buttons align the laser beam to the right/left side.
6.2 Automatic PlaneLok Mode The PlaneLok mode can be activated in horizontal and vertical automatic and manual mode. In PlaneLok mode when set up horizontal, the beam will be locked to a fixed elevation point (up to 150 m (490 ft) located on one axis at each side of the laser. For keeping vertical alignments fixed to a direction point, PlaneLok can be used in both directions on the Y-axis (GL622N only) or on the X-axis. Note: In every PlaneLok mode the laser continues to servo to the receiver’s signals.
and release button 4 to open the PlaneLok submenu; select the Y axis (Pic 13) or X-axis (Pic 14) and release button 4 to start PlaneLok Note: When used in vertical mode, the receiver has to be placed with the photocell on the bottom side; for Y-PlaneLok, align the top of the receiver to the top of the laser. The HL760 display shows a flashing – PL – during the time the laser is searching and adjusting the beam to the on grade position. When PlanLok is complete, - PL – stops flashing at the HL760 display. 4.
6.4 Automatic Axis Alignment (only GL622N) Automatic Axis Alignment mode adjusts automatically the direction the grade axis is pointing to the receiver’s location by an electronically simulation of rotating the unit on its base to match the hub. Using Axis Alignment, the laser axis can be aligned to one direction hub (up to 150 m (490 ft) located on one axis at each side of the laser. 1. Set up the laser over the reference point. 2.
6.7 Start Reference Check Pic 23 Reference Check When working during temperature changes and over long distances the product requires a frequent reference check to maintain accuracy and avoid errors caused by drift. The transmitter will do an automatic upon start up and after 20 minutes of operation. It will repeat the reference check every 60 minutes and when there is a 5°C (9°F) change within the product.
Pic 30 Calibration Y Pic 31 Calibration X Pic 32 Calibration Z Press and release button 4 to confirm the selection. The calibration at the selected axis starts the field calibration procedure. 6.11 RC602N Service menu: 6.11.1 RF Connectivity Press and release button 4 to get a status of the current Radio connectivity (Pic 33).

Pairing User Name Grade Entry Grade Display Set Password Password On/Off Sensitivity HI-Alert RF-Channel Select Language 8.1 Pairing Pairing is needed to couple different devices with the laser. The laser is able to communicate with several numbers of other radio network participants and pairing is the process to link these to each other. Buying the laser all devices should be paired but for some reasons this may not be true or the pairing has been lost.
If not already set to LS, press Units button and then press Deadband or Audio button until LS is displayed. Press Units button again to enter selection. Press and release the Audio button – display shows PAIR. Press the Units button again – the display shows PAIR and a rotating bar. After completing PAIR, OK will be displayed. The GL6X2N pairs now automatically with the new receiver. Press and release the Power button two times to exit the menu.
8.8 HI-alert Selection Select the HI icon (Pic 59) and press and release button 4 to open the HI-alert menu. The desired HI-alert: 5 min.(Pic 60); Default), 30 seconds (Pic 61) and HI-Off (Pic 62) can be selected using the buttons 6/7. Press and release button 4 to confirm the selected HI-alert. Pic 59 Hi Alert Pic 61 HI-alert 30 seconds Pic 60 HI-alert 5 minutes Pic 62 HI-alert OFF 8.
8.12 Radio (RF) Channel Pic 71 RF Channel In the RF Channel menu the user can change the radio channel. This may help to overcome some radio connectivity issues based on heavy radio traffic at the job site. In the menu “Settings” (Pic 35) select the RF Channel icon (Pic 71) and press and release button 4 to open the Radio Channel menu (Pic 71). The RF channel selection dialog contains six radio channels. Choose one channel and press and release button 4 to confirm the selected radio channel.
10 Troubleshooting Any error message can be deleted with a short press of button 4 (OK). The table shows the related description and possible solutions. The next service center should be contacted if a different error message as shown at the table will be displayed.
11 PROTECTING THE UNIT Do not expose the unit to extreme temperatures or temperature changes (do not leave inside the car). The unit is very robust and can resist damage if dropped even from tripod height. Before continuing your work, always check the leveling accuracy. See Checking Calibration section. The laser is water proof and can be used indoors and outdoors. 12 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Dirt and water on the glass parts of laser or prism will influence beam quality and operating range considerably.
