OPERATION

First adjust the channel switch of the laser and the receiver to the same channel (you will find them in

the battery case of the receiver and of the base). Three channels (1, 2 and 3) are available. By using dif-

ferent channels several instruments can be operated on one construction site without any disturbances.

AUTOMATIC TRACKING FUNCTION

For the axis alignment (vertical line)

· Fix the line laser on the EasyTRACK

· Power on the line laser and activate the reception mode

· Position the line laser over the ground point

· Press the POWER button (2) of the EasyTRACK (the LED will light red)

· Power on the receiver (button 4)

· Select the distance LONG/SHORT with button (1): SHORT = 8 - 10 m, LONG = more than 10 m

· Position the on-grade mark of the receiver at the target point and power on AUTO (button 6); the

unit will now prepare the tracking procedure.

· Select the tracking directon with the arrow buttons LEFT or RIGHT.

The tracking procedure will start and a discontinuous beep will sound.

As soon as the laser line has reached the on-grade position of the receiver a permanent beep will sound

and the receving status indication of the display will light green.

In case the laser cannot find the on-grade position the procedure has failed and the receiver will beep

three times. Re-start the procedure with AUTO.

For a new on-grade position the procedure must be re-started with AUTO.

MANUAL USE (remote function)

The rotation can also be controlled manually.

For this press the buttons RIGHT/LEFT after having powered on the receiver in order to direct the

vertical line of the line laser to the required position.

In order to save energy the EasyTRACK can be powered off when the tracking procedure has been

completed.

After 10 minutes w/o use the EasyTRACK will power off automatically to save energy.

Without using the tracking function the receiver can be used in horizontal and vertical direction.

POWER ON

Press button (4) (the power LED will light red). Activate the pulse function (P) of the receiver.

Now the receiver is in reception mode and the sound is set to „low“. Press button (4) again to power off

the receiver. Three short beeps will sound.

Keep button (1) pressed to power on and off the sound.

· Keep it pressed once = sound ON - confirmation by a beep

· Keep it pressed twice = sound OFF - confirmation by two beeps

Move the receiver up and down

carefully

to detect the laser beam.

Detection of the laser signal:

Move the receiver down - acoustic signal: ultra-short frequent beep

Move the receiver up - acoustic signal: short frequent beep

On level - acoustic signal: continuous beep

USE OF THE RECEIVER WITHOUT TRACKING FUNCTION
