Information on maintenance and care

Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents, scouring agents and solvents. Remove the battery(ies) before storing for longer periods. Store the device in a clean and dry place.
When transporting, always switch off all lasers, secure pendulum and push the slide switch (3) to the right.

Special product features

Automatic alignment of the device with a magnetically dampened pendulum system. The device is brought into initial position and aligns itself autonomously.
Transport LOCK: The device is protected with a pendulum lock during transport.
GRX READY technology enables line lasers to be used even in unfavorable light conditions.The laser lines pulsate at a high frequency and this can be picked up by special laser receivers over long distances.
The tilt function is not active following switch-on. Once the device has been set up, press the tilt button to activate the tilt function, 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 tilt function is active. If the position of the laser was shifted through external factors, a signal sounds, the laser flashes and the tilt LED lights up continuously. Press the tilt button twice to continue. Erroneous and inaccurate measurements are thus prevented simply and reliably.
The tilt function does not activate monitoring until 20 seconds after the laser has been fully levelled (set-up phase). The tilt LED flashes every second during the set-up phase, and flashes rapidly when tilt is active.

How the tilt function works

Green laser technology

Laser modules in DLD design stand for high line quality as well as a clean and clear and therefore easily visible line image. Unlike previous generations they are more temperature-stable and energy efficient.
Furthermore, the human eye has a higher sensitivity to the wave range of the green laser than the red laser, for example. This makes the green laser diode appear much brighter than the red one.
Green lasers, especially in the DLD design, thus offer advantages with regards to how visible the laser line is under unfavourable conditions.
Approx. 6 times brighter than a typical red laser with 630 – 660 nm

Number and direction of the lasers

H = horizontal laser
V = vertical laser
S = slope function

Inserting batteries

Open the battery compartment and insert batteries (4 x type AA) according to the symbols. Be sure to pay attention to polarity.

Horizontal and vertical levelling

Release the transport restraint, push the slide switch (3) to the left. The laser cross will appear. The laser lines can be switched individually with the selection button.

Laserliner G360 CompactLine-Laser-fig12

The transport restraint must be released for horizontal and vertical levelling. The laser lines flash and the LED lights red as soon as the device is outside the automatic levelling range of 3°. Position the device such that it is within the levelling range. The LED switches back to green and the laser lines stop flashing (steady light).

Slope mode

Do not release transport restraint, push slide switch (3) to the right.
Select the laser with the selector button (7). Sloping planes and tilts can now be measured. In this mode, the laser lines no longer align automatically. The LED (6) lights constantly red.

Hand receiver mode

Optional: Working with the laser receiver GRX Use an GRX laser receiver (optional) to carry out levelling at great distances or when the laser lines are no longer visible. To work with a laser receiver, switch the line laser to hand- held receiver mode by keeping button 7 (handheld receiver mode on / off) pressed. The laser lines will now pulsate with high frequency, making the laser lines darker. receiver can detect these pulsating laser lines.

Observe the laser receiver‘s operating instructions for line lasers.
Due to the special optics required to generate a continuous 360° laser line, the underlying technology may cause differences in brightness in different areas of the line. This may lead to different ranges in hand receiver mode.

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 m apart. Switch the device on (Laser cross ON). The best calibration results are achieved if the device is mounted on a tripod.

Mark point A1 on the wall.
Turn the device through 180° and mark point A2.
You now have a horizontal reference between points A1 and A2.
Performing the calibration check
Position the device as near as possible to the wall at the height of point A1.
Turn the device through 180° and mark point A3.
The difference between points A2 and A3 is the tolerance.
When A2 and A3 are more than 0.4 mm / m apart, an adjustment is necessary. Contact your authorised dealer or else the UMAREX-LASERLINER Service Department.

Checking the vertical line

Position the device about 5 m from a wall. Fix a plumb bob with a line of 2.5 m length on the wall, making sure that the bob can swing freely. Switch on the device and align the vertical laser to the plumb line.
The precision is within the specified tolerance if the deviation between the laser line and the plumb line is not greater than ± 2 mm.

Checking the horizontal line
Position the device about 5 m from a wall and B switch on the cross laser. Mark point B on the wall. C Turn the laser cross approx. 2.5 m to the right and mark point C. Check whether the horizontal line from point C is level with point B to within ± 2 mm. Repeat the process by turning the laser to the left.

Regularly check the calibration before use, after transport and after extended periods of storage.

Data transfer

The device features a Bluetooth® function that enables wireless data transfer to mobile devices with a Bluetooth® interface (such as a smartphone or tablet).
The system prerequisites for a Bluetooth®* connection are specified at http://laserliner.com/info?an=ble
The device can set up a Bluetooth®* connection with Bluetooth 4.0 compatible devices.
The range is set to a maximum distance of 10 m from the terminal device and greatly depends on the ambient conditions such as the thickness and composition of walls, sources of interference as well as the transmit / receive properties of the terminal device.
Once it has been activated, Bluetooth®* remains switched on indefinitely as the radio system is designed with exceptionally low power consumption.
A mobile device can link up to the active measuring device via an app.

Application (app)

An app is required to use the Bluetooth® function. You can download the app from the corresponding stores for the specific type of terminal device:
Make sure that the Bluetooth® interface of the mobile device is activated.
After starting the app and activating the Bluetooth®* function, a connection can be set up between a mobile device and the measuring device. If the app detects several active measuring devices, select the matching device.
This measuring device can be connected automatically the next time it is switched on.
The Bluetooth® word mark and the logo are registered trademarks of Bluetooth SIG Inc.

Additional functions via the app

The app offers a range of additional functions. If it is not possible to control your device via the app for technical reasons, reset the device to the factory settings by switching it off and back on again so that you can continue to use the regular functions without problems.

Calibration

The meter needs to be calibrated and tested on a regular basis to ensureit produces accurate measurement results. We recommend carrying out calibration once a year.
