Setting the unit for distance measurements The following units can be set: 1. The angles in a triangle can be calculated by measuring the three sides. Press this button three times and the room corner symbol appears in the display . mark the reference points to the right and left (d1/ d2) of the angle to be measured. Press this button to measure the first (short) side of the triangle (d1 or d2). Press this button to measure the second (short) side of the triangle (d1 or d2). Press this button to measure the third (long) side of the triangle (d3). By using and , you can adjust the values (first a and then b) to suit the desired stake out distances. Once the desired value (a) has been reached it can be confirmed with the button. the value (b) and the intermediate line flashes (the defined value (a) is automatically adopted). The display shows required stake out distance In the summary line between the stake out point (first a and then b) and the instrument (rear reference). If the Makita LD100P is then moved slowly along the stake out line the displayed distance decreases. [. . . ] Press and hold down this button to trigger continuous measurement, sweep the laser back and forth and up and down over the ideal target point. Determining the height between point 1 and point 2 using three target points. Press this button three times ; the display shows the following symbol .
