6. Operasie
6.1 Powering On/Off and Self-Leveling
- To power on the device and activate self-leveling mode, rotate the On/Off knob to the unlocked position. The laser lines will automatically level within ±3°. If the device is outside this range, the laser lines will flash to indicate it cannot self-level.
- To power off, rotate the On/Off knob to the locked position. This also locks the pendulum for safe transport.
6.2 Skakel van laserlyne
The NL-12P projects 12 lines (3 x 360° planes). Use the control buttons on the top of the device to switch between horizontal and vertical lines:
- Press the 'H' button to activate/deactivate horizontal laser lines.
- Press the 'V' button to activate/deactivate vertical laser lines.
- Multiple lines can be active simultaneously.
6.3 Manual Mode (Locked Pendulum)
For projecting lines at an angle, you can use the manual mode:
- With the device powered off (knob in locked position), press and hold the 'H' or 'V' button for a few seconds to activate the laser lines in manual mode.
- In this mode, the self-leveling function is deactivated, and the laser lines can be projected at any angle. The lines will not flash.
- To exit manual mode, turn the device off using the On/Off knob.
