For Your Safety
Safety Instructions
Please read this instruction manual
before using the device for the first
time and comply with it.
Retain this instruction manual for
future reference or for subsequent
owners.
This instruction manual is available
online under:
www.androtec.com/manuals/metor
èOnly authorised and trained personnel are
allowed to repair the device. Only use genuine
spare parts from AndroTec GmbH. This ensures
continuous device safety.
èDo not look directly into the laser beam.
èLaser receiver should not be used in the
vicinity of pacemakers. The magnets produce a
field which can affect the function of the
pacemaker.
èKeep the laser receiver away from data media
and devices that react sensitive to magnetic
force. Exposure to magnets can result in
irreversible data loss.
CAUTION
Prior to the first start-up, it is definitely
necessary to carefully read the Safety
instructions!
Failure to adhere to this instruction manual and the
safety instructions may result in damage to the
device and cause dangerous situations for the
operator and other people.
In case of transport damage please inform your
vendor immediately.
èNoise emission
The a-rated sound pressure level of the acoustic
signal is >80 db (A) at a distance of one meter.
èDo not hold the laser receiver directly to your
ear!
èKeep the laser receiver away from children.
èDo not use the laser receiver in explosive
atmospheres or near flammable liquids, gases
or dust. The device may produce sparks that
can ignite vapours or dust.
èPlease remove the battery if the device is not in
use for a prolonged period of time.
èUse only genuine AndroTec accessories.
When using non-recommended accessories, you
may receive incorrect measuring values.

Activate / deactivate LEDs
Press the LED button [18] to change the LED display. If
activated, the measurements are shown by the LEDs in
addition to the display.
User defined on-grade level:
An arbitrary level within -10 and +40mm around the
marking notch can be used as on-grade level. The user
defined on-grade level is set by pressing the accuracy
button [17] for two seconds while the device is in the
laser beam. If successful, you will hear a confirmation
beep and an asymmetric arrow symbol is shown on the
display. Outside the allowed area you will hear an error
beep and error code E30 is shown.
When the accuracy button [17] is pressed for two
seconds while out of beam, the on-grade level is reset
to default. If the device is switched off, the on-grade
level is automatically reset to default.
Using the menu
The menu functions can be used to edit various
options. For most applications the factory defaults are
best choice. We recommend to change settings only in
special applications.
!Pressing the volume [16] key for more than two
seconds enters the menu functions.
!Menu items (e.g. SEn are shown non-flashing and
may be browsed by using the ARROW keys [17]
and [18].
!Menu items are selected by pressing the ENTER
key [16]
!Item values (e.g. On) are shown flashing and may
be browsed by using the ARROW keys [17] and
[18].
!Exit the Menu by pressing the ESC key [15].

Battery (Fig. A/D)
Inserting / changing the battery
!Change the battery if is displayed .
!Open the battery compartment by unlatching the
battery door [12].
!Remove the battery and insert a new one
(observe correct polarity!).

environmental protection).
Grade indication arrows
Four individual levels of grade information for above
and below grade. Arrow size increases, as distance
from on-grade increases. Arrow bars represent steps of
the selected deadband. Horizontal bar indicates on-
grade.
Out-of-beam display: A sequence of arrows indicates if
the receiver has moved beyond the vertical reception
range and will indicate in which direction to move to get
back to the laser beam.
Subsequent presses will cycle through five
accuracy options Ultra fine / Fine / Medium / Coarse
/ Ultra coarse.
