Section 5 - Measurement Modes
When you power ON the TruPulse L2, the last used Measurement Mode will be active. Press the Up or Down arrow to
display other Measurement Modes. Figure 12 shows the four different types of measurements that the TruPulse L2 can take.
Distance & Inclination Measurements
The laser sensor and inclinometer sensor will measure when the fire button is pressed in any measurement mode.
In the Slope Distance Mode, the TruPulse L2 will automatically calculate Horizontal and Vertical Distance values.
Measurements are from the ¼-20 tripod mount (center) of the laser to the target.
The basic steps for taking any distance measurement:
1. Press FIRE button to power ON the TruPulse L2. Select a target such as a tree or a building.
2. Look through the eyepiece and use the crosshair to aim to the target.
3. Press-and-hold the fire button. The Laser indicator is displayed while the laser is active measuring.
If a target is acquired, measurement results will be displayed, flash 3 times and laser indicator turns off.
• If a target is not acquired immediately, the laser will remain active for a maximum of 10 seconds while
acquiring data about the target.
• If the target is not acquired, release and fire button and repeat steps.
4. Release FIRE button once the measurement results are displayed.
5. Press Up or Down buttons to scroll though the other measurement values calculated.
6. Press FIRE button to clear measurements and repeat step 1 through 6.
• The last measurement does not need to be cleared before acquiring your next target.
• Each time the TruPulse L2 is powered ON, it will return to the same measurement mode that was last used.
