Laserliner 410S Centurium Express Rotary Laser Instructions

Laserliner 410S Centurium Express Rotary Laser

Instructions

• In public areas shield off the laser beam with barriers and partitions wherever possible and identify the laser area with warning signs.
• Tampering with (making changes to) the laser device is not permitted.
• This device is not a toy – keep out of the reach of children.

For reasons of product liability, we must also draw your attention to the following: Regularly check the calibration before use, after transport and after extended periods of storage. We also wish to point out that absolute calibration is only possible in a specialist workshop. Calibration by yourself is only approximate and the accuracy of the calibration will depend on the care with which you proceed.

Special product features and functions

The rotary laser aligns itself automatically. It is set to the required initial position (to within an operating angle of ± 4°) and the automatic system then performs the necessary fine adjustment, with
three electronic measurement sensors detecting the X, Y and Z axes.
The anti-drift system (ADS) prevents erroneous or inaccurate measurements. How it works: continuous monitoring of the alignment of the laser is activated 30 seconds after the ADS is switched on. If the device moves due to the influence of external factors or the laser loses its height reference, the laser will come to a standstill. Additionally, the laser flashes and the tilt LED is lit continuously. To continue working, press the tilt button again or switch the device off then on again. Erroneous and inaccurate measurements are thus prevented simply and reliably.
The ADS is not active following switch-on. Once the device has been set up, press the tilt button to activate the ADS, enabling you to protect the laser from changes in position caused by the device being disturbed by external factors. The tilt LED flashes to indicate that the ADS function is active; see the diagram.

Note: The ADS does not activate the monitoring function until 30 seconds after the laser levelling procedure has been completed (set-up phase). Long flash of tilt LED at 1 second intervals during the set-up phase and short flash of LED when ADS is active.

Centurium Express Green: Green laser technology

The distance at which a laser is visible to the naked eye depends on its colour i.e. wavelength. This is because of the human eye’s physiology – green appears brighter to us than red.

Depending on ambient light, green lasers are therefore many times more visible than red lasers; in indoor areas this is as much as 12 times brighter. This permits applications on dark surfaces, over longer distances and work in very bright ambient light. A red laser with a 635 nm wavelength is used as a reference value for brightness differentiation.
In contrast to red lasers, green laser light can only be produced indirectly. This is a source of potential characteristic fluctuations:

• The optimal operating temperature is 20°C. Outside its operating temperature range of 0 – 40°C Centurium Express Green is darker. IMPORTANT: Allow the unit enough time to adapt to the ambient temperature before switching the unit on.
• Laser brightness may vary somewhat from one unit to another. This is a natural phenomenon and is excluded from warranty claims.
• Green Laser will only work with certain Receivers. The maximum range of the Receiver is shorter, please refer to technical details.

Tips and tricks for using the rotary laser

• Use a height which is not interrupted by glass or windows so as to avoid reflections.
• Generate a working mark (reference height) in order to always continue working from the same height.
• Reliable and accurate measurements are achieved when the rotary laser is controlled with the remote control, as the position of the device is not changed during operation.
• When working outdoors, position the device on the highest point so as to overcome obstacles.
• The laser enhancement glasses (Art. No. red: 020.70A, green: 020.71A) will enable you to see the laser beam much more clearly.
• When installing separating walls, align the reference beam parallel to the wall (see Fig. 1).

Battery charging

• Charge the device’s battery completely prior to use.
• Connect the charger to mains power supply and the charging socket (F) of the battery compartment (G). Please only use the char-ger supplied; using a different charger will invalidate the warranty. The rechargeable battery can also be charged when it is not inserted in the device.
• When the rechargeable battery is being charged, the LED on the charger (K) lights up red. When the LED changes to green, charging is complete. When the unit is not connected to the charger the power charger’s LED lamp will blink.
• Alkaline batteries (4 x type C) can be used as an alternative. Insert them in the battery compartment (H) as per the installation symbols.
• Insert battery (G) / battery compartment (H) into slot and secure it in place with fastening screw (E).
• With the rechargeable battery inserted, the device is ready to run even during charging.
• The batteries need charging or changing when the status indicator (12) start to flash.

Note: Only use rechargeable NiMh batteries in the battery compartment (G). There is a risk of explosion when charging other types of battery!

Insert batteries into the remote control

• Observing the correct polarity.

Horizontal levelling and vertical levelling

• Horizontal: Position the device on a level surface or on a tripod.
• Vertical: Set the unit on its side feet. The operator panel should be at the top.
• Press the “ON/OFF” switch
• The device levels itself automatically to within a range of ± 4°. During the set-up phase, the laser flashes and the prism head remains stationary. When levelling is complete, the laser lights up continuously and rotates at maxi-mum speed. Refer also to the sections about “Sensor Automatic” and “ADS Tilt”.

NOTE:  If the device has been placed on a surface with too much of a slope (more than 4°), there is a warning sound, the prism head remains stationary and the laser starts to flash. The device must then be placed on a more even surface.

Positioning the vertical laser level
In vertical mode the laser level can be positioned exactly. “Sensor Automatic” remains active and levels to the vertical laser level. Refer to the illustration below.

Note: A signal sounds when the maximum adjustment range of 4° is reached.

Slope function up to 4° – horizontal

This function deactivates the automatic sensor. Press the AUTO/MAN button to activate the function. The positioning buttons enable motorised tilt adjustment. The X- and Y-axes can be independently adjusted. Press the TILT button to change to the Y-axis. Refer to the illustrations below.

Slope function up to 4° – vertical

NOTE: When the maximum tilt range of 4° is reached, a warning signal sounds, the prism head stops and the laser flashes. In this case, reduce the slope angle.

Slope function > 4°

Steeper slopes can be set using the angle plate, which is available as an optional extra (product ref. 080.75). TIP: Allow the device to align itself automatically and set the angle plate to the zero position. Then press the auto/man button to switch the automatic sensor off. Finally, incline the device to the angle you require.

Laser modes

Rotary mode
The following speeds can be set using the rotary button: 0, 100, 400, 800 rpm
Spot mode
You access spot mode by pressing the rotary button repeatedly until the laser stops rotating. The laser can then be positioned exactly at the measuring point by means of the direction buttons.
Scan mode
The scan button can be used to activate and set a lightintensive segment in 4 different widths. You position the segment via the direction buttons.
Hand receiver mode
Working with the laser receiver (available as an optional extra): Set the rotary laser to maximum speed and switch on the laser receiver. Refer to the operating instructions for the respective laser receiver about this.

Preparing the calibration check

It is possible for you to check the calibration of the laser. To do this, position the device midway between 2 walls, which must be at least 5 metres apart. Switch the device on. The best calibration results are achieved if the device is mounted on a tripod. IMPORTANT: The automatic sensor must be active (auto/man LED is off).

1. Mark point A1 on the wall.

2. Turn the device through 180° and mark point A2. You now have a horizontal reference between points A1 and A2.
   Performing the calibration check

3. Position the device as near as possible to the wall at the height of point A1. Now adjust the device in the X axis.

4. Turn the device through 180° and mark point A3. The difference between points A2 and A3 is the tolerance for the X axis.

5. To check the Y and Z axis, repeat steps 3 and 4.

NOTE : If points A2 and A3 are more than 0.75 mm / 10 m apart on either the X, Y or Z axis, the device is in need of adjustment. Contact your authorised dealer or else the UMAREX-LASERLINER Service Department.

Adjustment mode

1. Take the alignment of the rotary laser into account when performing adjustment work. Always adjust all the axes.

2. Switch the device to adjustment mode:
   Switch off the rotary laser. Simultaneously press the ON/OFF button and the auto/man button until the auto/man LED flashes rapidly. You can then release both buttons.
   The X-axis is set first (X LED flashes) in horizontal mode
   (X/Y-axis). You can switch between X and Y-axis with the TILT button on the rotary laser (Y LED flashes).
   Only the Z LED flashes in vertical mode (Z-axis).

3. Correcting the adjustment:
   Use the positioning buttons on the rotary laser to move the laser from its current position to the level of the reference point A2.
   The laser only changes its position by pressing the buttons several times.

4. Completing the adjustment:

   • Cancel:
   • Switch the rotary laser off (via the ON/OFF button) to reject all adjustment settings and restore the previous status.
   • Save:
   • The new adjustment settings are saved by pressing the positioning button (rotate to the right).

Regularly check the adjustment before use, after transport and after extended periods of storage. Always make sure to control all axes.
