g) Indirect Measurement

Use of the Pythagorean Theorem (a² + b² =

c²) permits, e.g., indirect determination of the

height of an object when there is no end point

for the laser to perform the measurement

(e.g. the upper end of a shelf).

Observe that the measurement „b“ is

performed at a right angle to the desired

height „c“.

Proceed as follows:

1. Keep the middle function button „ “ (C) pushed until a triangle appears at the top of the

display (indirect measurement). Release the button again.

2. Push the measuring button „ “ (B) briey to measure the rst side length (a). The measu-

red value is shown in the middle line (3). Then the lower dash of the triangle ashes in the

display.

3. Push the measuring button „ “ (B) briey to measure the second side length (b).

After the measurement, the middle line (3) shows the measured value of the second side

length, and the calculated height in m appears in the lower display line (4) (the right dash of

the triangle now ashes at the top of the display).

4. If another measurement is to be performed, briey push the measuring button „ “ (B). The

data are deleted from the display. Now continue with step 2.

Pushing the power button „ “ (D) several times will take you back to the previous

step or leave indirect measurement.
