Mode Switching
To switch between different modes, flip the switch up or down. The modes include Distance Measurement, Angle Measurement, angle and Height Measurement, Size Measurement, and Virtual Scale. Flip the switch downwards to change modes in sequential order and upwards to change modes in reverse order.

Measuring Distance
After powering on the device, short press the power/measure button to emit a laser and measure the distance. The present distance will be displayed in real-time on the display. Press the power/measure button again to stop the laser emission. The fixed numbers on the display show the measurement values.

Measuring Angles
Flip the switch up or down to enter the Angle Measuring mode. The angle will be displayed in real-time on the display. Press the power/measure button again to stop the laser emission. The numbers on the display will stop to show the measurement values.

Measuring Size
Flip the switch up or down to enter the Size Measurement mode. Short press the measure button once to emit the laser. The measurement will be conducted in real-time and shown on the display. Press the measure button again to stop the laser emission. The measurement shows the length of the rectangle. To measure the width of the rectangle, use the same method as above. The instrument will automatically calculate the size of the rectangle. To continue measuring, short-press the measure button again.

Virtual Scale
Flip the switch up or down to enter the Virtual Scale mode. Short press the measure button once to emit the laser. The measurement will be conducted in real-time. The default unit is centimeters (cm). Press the power/measure button again to stop the laser emission, and the number on the display will show the measurement data. The minimum adjustable length is 0.2 meters (m), and the maximum length is 50 meters (m).

Connecting to the HOTO App
To connect the device to the HOTO app, scan the product’s QR code or search for the HOTO app in your app store. Download and install the HOTO app. If the app was previously installed, you will be directed to the device connection page.

In the analog ruler mode, the test accuracy is ±4mm. “D” refers to the actual distance in an indoor environment with standard reflectiv surfaces. All data produced by this product vary slightly due to different actual measurement environments and should depend on users’ actual measurements. The rangefinder is appropriate for indoor measurements. The measurement results will have relatively wide discrepancies in such harsh environments as extremely strong sunlight or excessively fluctuated temperature, weak reflective surfaces, and low battery power. The measuring range of 0.05m is the minimum measurable distance using head-based reference mode. Manufacturer: Shanghai HOTO Technology Co., Ltd.
