Digital Laser Detector: DE0892 (Fig. F)
Some laser kits include a DEWALT Digital Laser Detector. The DEWALT Digital Laser Detector
helps in locating a laser beam emitted by the laser in bright light conditions or over long
distances. The detector can be used in both indoor and outdoor situations where it is
difficult to see the laser beam.
The detector is designed exclusively for use with the DW088/DW088CG and the DW089 line
lasers and other compatible DeWALT line lasers. It is not for use with rotating lasers.
The detector gives both visual signals through the LCD display window
17
and audio
signals through the speaker
18
to indicate the location of the laser beam.
The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector can be used with or without the detector clamp. When
used with the clamp, the detector can be positioned on a grade rod, leveling pole, stud
orpost.
Batteries (Fig. F)
The digital laser detector is powered by a 9-volt battery. To install the battery provided, lift
up on the battery compartment cover
19
. Place the 9-volt battery in the compartment,
aligning the battery as shown on the embossed icon.
Detector Controls (Fig. F)
The detector is controlled by the power button
21
and the volume button
22
.
When the power button is pushed once, the detector is turned on. The top of the sensor
window shows the ON icon and the volume icon.
The DeWALT Digital Laser Detector also has an auto shut-off feature. If a laser beam does
not strike the beam detection window, or if no buttons are pressed, the detector will shut
itself off in about 5 minutes.
To turn off the audible signal push the button again; the volume icon will disappear.
The detector powers up in the narrow accuracy setting (icon appears in the lower left
corner). Press the accuracy button
23
once to change to wide accuracy setting (icon now
appears in the lower right corner).
Accuracy
The detector provides two accuracy settings, wide and narrow. In the wide setting, the
detector provides a larger tolerance for indicating that the detector is “on grade”. In the
narrow setting, this tolerance is reduced for more accurate indication of “on grade”.
