Accuracy Self-check
After using the unit for a period of time or before
take it to finish a large subject, the user needs to
self-check for the instrument. If the unit accuracy
error exceed, the user needs to self-check for the
instrument as follows methods.
C
1.Set up the instrument on a table 20m far away
from an indoor wall, and let X axis face against
the wall;
2.Press power switch, after the unit auto-level,
press button

3 Press button
, let the laser beam moves
though the X direction and irradiate on the wall
and then make a mark A at the laser beam
projected;
4.Rotate the instrument by 90 in turn, and mark
B, C, D respectively on the wall(B,C,D should
be on one line with A);
5.Measure the distance h between the highest
and the lowest point among A, B, C, D;
6.If h 4mm the accuracy is qualified;

If 4 h 10mm, users can make accuracy
calibration by yourselves;
If h 10mm, please contact authorized servicing
centers or dealers for repair.
Accuracy Calibration
With reference to the above step 4 of Accuracy

, and the instrument enters selfcalibration mode. Remote control is an necessity
during self-calibration. Open the down cover of
the remote control, you can
see the operation panel for
calibration.
A. X-direction Self-calibration
.Select self-calibration direction:
Firstly make X-direction of the instrument face
against datum line, and then press
button
once to select self-calibration for X-direction.
Now the X-direction indicator lamp, in the
the unit panel CALIBRATOR range, is
lightened (see following fig.), and rotating
head begins to rotate.

Unit panel CALIBRATOR range
Calibrate the laser beam:
Press the two arrows
in the remote control,
let the laser beam superpose the datum line.
Confirm the value: Press button
in the remote
control for confirmation. Then the indicator lamp
of X direction will go out as follow fig.
Unit panel CALIBRATOR range
Note: After calibration, power off and power on
again, the calibration will take effect finally.

Note:
1. After calibration, power off and power on again,
the calibration will take effect finally.
2. After X-direction self- calibration, Y axis accuracy
must be check; after Y-direction self-caliration,
X axis accuracy must be checked, until all of the
X and Y axis accuracy complies with the request.

X axis accuracy must be checked, until all of the
X and Y axis accuracy complies with the request.
C. Z-direction Self-check & Self-calibration
A. Z-direction Self-check
1.According to <1> the accuracy checking fig.
Locating the instrument rotates horizontally
lin the table, measure H1 between the laser
beam and table;
2.The instrument rotates vertically located on the
table, make the Z axis faces against the wall.
3 Power on, let the unit emit
16 point laser irradiates
to the wall, make mark E;
4.When the instrument located on the table rotates
vertically, measure H2 between the laser beam
and table. Count value H(H=H1-H2+h/2), make
out O in the position of H down the highest mark
in A, B, C, D. It is the datum mark in the vertically
rotating position;
5.Measure h between E and O ;
Ifh
6mm the accuracy is qualified;
If 6 h
10mm, users can make accuracy
calibration by themselves;
If h

servicing centers or dealers for
repair.
B. Z-direction Self-calibration
According to the same step used in the X and Y
direction self-calibration
a. Press button
in the remote control to select
self-calibration for Z-direction. Now the Zdirection indicator lamp, in the unit panel
CALIBRATOR range, is lightened (see
following fig.)
