Although the SmartRod is easy to use, we recommend that you
read this manual before use, as it functions differently than a
standard laser receiver.
The SmartRod is a laser receiver built into a telescoping rod, with
unique features that eliminate the usual calculations required when
using a receiver on a grade rod. It provides a digital readout in
three modes: basic elevation readings, cut-and-fill calculations, and
height and width measurements (tape measuring mode, not
requiring a laser). It can receive reference elevation information
from all rotating lasers.
The SmartRod has these advanced features:
• LCD showing elevation, measurements, settings, and status
of functions
• Cut-and-fill mode that indicates how far a measurement is from a
previous reference reading
• Choice of units: metric; ft/10ths/100ths; and ft/inches/16ths
• Uses linear receiving technology and has a wide 6.5”(165mm)
reception range for capturing the beam quickly.
