en TECH 1000 DP 4. Commissioning 4.1 Power supply - Charging the Li-ion rechargeable battery The Li-ion rechargeable battery is charged using the mains adapter provided. Alternatively, the battery can be charged using the USB connection cable provided, as well as the M12 RS485 connection. The charging time depends on the maximum charging current of the source. Remaining connected to the mains adapter for a long period of time will not damage the Li-ion rechargeable battery.

The 2 "centre display" bars indicate the precise position at which the vertical or horizontal axis is reached. 90° Display showing direction of inclination 0.01° - 45.00° 270.01° - 315.00° 45.00 ° - 89.99° 135.00° - 179.99° 225.00° - 269.99° 315.00° - 359.99° 90.01° - 135.00° 180.01° - 225.00° 0° 8 0.00° 90.00° 180.
TECH 1000 DP en 5.2 Acoustic guidance The acoustic guidance is selected via the "FUNC" button. The tone sequence speeds up as the 0°, 90°, 180° and 270° positions are approached in a range of +/- 2°. A change in the pitch indicates that these positions have been exceeded. A continuous signal tone confirms the precise point at which 0°, 90°,180° and 270° are reached. This function is not active in interface mode. 5.

en TECH 1000 DP 7. Checking the measuring tool 7.1 Accuracy check 1 To prevent measuring errors, the accuracy of the measuring tool must be checked at regular intervals; for example, each time before beginning work, or after a heavy impact or extreme fluctuations in temperature. Step 1: Place the unit with the lower measuring sole on as horizontal a surface as possible (e.g. a table) with the display side facing the user. Determine the measurement. 2 Step 2: Turn the unit by 180° in the same position.
en TECH 1000 DP 1 7.3 Calibration Step 1: Once "Calibration" has been selected with the "CAL/ADJ" button, confirm by pressing "Enter". Display: CAL2P 2 Step 2: Place the unit with the lower measuring sole on as horizontal a surface as possible (e.g. a table) with the display side facing the user. Calibration is started by pressing the "CAL/ADJ" button. "CAL" flashes in the display. 3 Display: CAL2 Calibration step 2 successfully completed Step 3: Turn the unit by 180° in the same position.
en TECH 1000 DP The sensor must be adjusted if the "temperature" or "Adj." symbols are shown in the display. Adj. A 2 7.4 Adjusting the sensor A: All 4 planes are adjusted during the sensor adjustment. 3 1 B B: The sensor can only be adjusted if the two black bars appear on the display (in the range of 0°, 90°, 180° and 270°). C C: "ADJ" flashes during sensor adjustment of the respective plane. D D: Planes that have not been adjusted are not displayed.
TECH 1000 DP en 7.4 Adjusting the sensor 1 Step 1: Once "Sensor adjustment" has been selected with the "CAL/ADJ" button, confirm by pressing "Enter". Display: ADJ4P Step 2: Hold the unit in plane 1. 2 Press the "CAL/ADJ" buttons. 1 3 If the plane has been adjusted successfully, it is displayed permanently. 2 Step 3: Turn the unit by 90° to plane 2. Press the "CAL/ADJ" button. If the plane has been adjusted successfully, it is displayed permanently.
