      Vanessa JacksonSep 1, 2025
      If the Elevation (H.I.) Alert screen is shown and the audio beeps on your Leica Rugby laser level, it means the device has been bumped or the tripod was moved. Turn off the device to stop the alert, then check the height of the laser before beginning to work again. Allow the device to relevel and check the height of the laser.

    Why is the laser distance reduced on my Leica Laser Level?
    • D
      Daniel RamseySep 4, 2025
      The distance of the laser is reduced because dirt is reducing the laser output. Clean the windows of the Rugby and the receiver.
  • M
    Marco PhillipsSep 6, 2025
    Why is my Leica Laser Level receiver not working properly?
    • J
      Julie MoralesSep 6, 2025
      If the Leica laser receiver is not working properly, it may be because the Rugby is not rotating, is levelling, or is in H.I. Alert. Check for proper operation of the Rugby. Another reason may be that the receiver is out of usable range, so move closer to the Rugby. Also, the batteries of the receiver may be low, so check the low battery symbol on the receiver display and change the receiver batteries.
