Slope Calibration Key
The calibration key is used for re-calibrating the instrument
in both the horizontal and vertical direction. Refer to Section
8 “Calibration” for details.
Mode Key
Push the MODE key to switch from one construction language
to another. This controls which construction language your
electronic module will measure in. Your level has the capability to
measure in Degrees, Percentage of slope, Millimeters per Meter,
Inches per Foot (Slope, Pitch) in decimal form and Inches per Foot in
fractions of an inch. A symbol on the upper right of the screen will
explain which MODE you are currently in.
Sound/Backlight Key
Pressing this key with a short press will turn on the sound
function and the sound icon will appear on the LCD. Pressing the key
again with a short press will turn off the sound function and the sound
icon will disappear on the LCD. The instrument will beep once when
turning the sound on and off. The level will beep faster when the level
gets closer to 0º and 90º (10º - 0º and 80º - 90º) when the LCD displays
0º or 90º there will be a continuous tone. Pressing this key with a long
press (more then 1 second) will turn on the backlight.
Hold Key
The angle readings change in accordance with the change of
the incline. Press the key (unit will beep once) to enter into
the “hold” mode. The measured angle reading will be held. The
display will flash and the angle measurement will not change.
Pressing the key again (unit will beep once) will stop the “hold” mode
and measured value will change with the incline.
