Indirect Measurements (Pythagorean Methods)
All Calculations are based on Pythagorean Theorem a 2 +b 2 =c 2 .
This function allows for the measurement of hard to reach jobs.
Follow the order of the flashing lines for each required measurement.
Note: For accurate measurements the instrument’s position must be
held constant. For example, note the position of your hand when
taking first measurement. Do not move your hand when preparing to
take the second measurement. Simply pivot your wrist (keeping
instrument in same position) to align the next target. Then record
next measurement.
