The Memory Mode icon will display the number
of measurements stored. Scroll forward or backward
through the measurements with the buttons.
MEASURING
The LDM 165-BT has six di󰀨erent modes of
measurement: Linear, Area, Volume, Basic Indirect
Height, Advanced Indirect Height - Full, and Advanced
Indirect Height - Partial. The icon for each mode will
prompt you through each necessary measurement
with a blinking red line. For example, the blinking red
segment in the icon indicates that the height is to
be measured next.
Linear Mode Press until Linear icon appears.
With laser on, press to measure. The entire Linear
icon will be outlined in red when the measurement is
complete. The Linear measurement will display at the
bottom of the screen.
Icon Description
