2. Safety instructions
WARNING: Failure to follow these safety instructions could result in fire,
electric shock, or other injuries, or damage to NT-6580 Laser Distance
Measurer or other property. Read all the safety information below before
using NT-6580.
Laser classification
NT-6580 uses a visible laser beam which emerges from the front of the
instrument.
Laser Class 2 products:
Do not stare into the laser beam or direct it towards other people
unnecessarily. Eye protection is normally afforded by aversion responses
including the blink reflex.
WARNING:
Looking directly into the beam with optical aids (e.g. binoculars,
telescopes) can be hazardous. Do not look directly into the beam with
optical aids.
Looking into the laser beam may be hazardous to the eyes. Do not look
into the laser beam. Make sure the laser is aimed above or below eye
level.

object which is to be measured.
(2) Press again to take measurement. Results will
be seen on display immediately.
Continuous Measurement
Long press button, until you hear beeps, to activate continuous
measurement. Under this mode, minimum or maximum distance can be
measured from a fixed measuring position by sweeping ideal points.
It’s usually used to find the right angle and diagonal. User can press
or to stop continuous measurement and the values of minimum and
maximum distances are shown in the display as well as the last
measured value in the summary line.
Area Measurement
Press once, the symbol appears on display.
Press to take the first distance measurement (e.g. Length).
Press again to take the second distance measurement (e.g. width).
The results of length, width, perimeter, area will be seen on display
orderly.

Following the hint, press to activate laser, and aim at the target,
press again to take the first distance measurement (e.g. Length). Then
measure the width, and then height, the result of volume will be seen in
the summary line.
Indirect Measurement
This device can measure distance to inaccessible points, such as the
distance to a wall which is blocked by obstacles, or the height of a tree,
using trigonometric function.
To ensure measuring accuracy, indirect measurement should be based
on the following conditions:
(1) The measuring points of the object which is to be measured should be
on the same horizontal or vertical line.
(2) Put the device at a fixed but horizontally and vertically rotary tripod.
Indirect Measurement: Pythagoras Two Points
Figure (E)
As shown in Figure (E), if user wants to measure
the height of a building, he can use Pythagoras to
calculate the height.

point which is to be measured.
(3) Press again to take the first measurement, and again to take the
second measurement.
(4) The height of building (third side of triangle), first and second distance
value will be seen on display.
Note:
(1) The device will automatically determine the longer distance as triangle’s
hypotenuse, and shorter distance as right-angle side.
6

(2) When measuring right-angle side (Distance 2 in Figure E), user should
ensure laser beam is right-angled to the target line.
(3) User can press to delete any measured length and then press
to re-measure.
Indirect Measurement: Pythagoras Three Points

point which is to be measured.
(3) Press again to take the first
measurement, and again to take the second and third measurement.
(4) The height of building, first, second and third distance value will be
seen on display.
Note:
(1) The device will automatically determine the longer distance as triangle’s
hypotenuse, and shorter distance as right-angle side.
(2) When measuring right-angle side (Distance 2 in Figure E), user should
ensure laser beam is right-angled to the target line.
(3) User can press to delete any measured length and then press
to re-measure.
Tilt Measurement

Remark
[1] Applies for 100 % target reflectivity (white painted wall), low background
illumination, 25°C.
[2] Applies for 10 to 500 % target reflectivity, high background illumination,
-10°C to +50°C.
[3] Tolerances apply from 0.2m to 10 m with a confidence level of 95 %.
The tolerance may deteriorate to 0.15 mm/m between 10 m to 30 m
and to 0.2 mm/m for distances above 30 m
[4] In favorable conditions (good target surface properties, room
temperature), measuring range is up to 80m. In unfavorable conditions,
such as intense sunshine, poorly reflecting target surface (black surface) or
high temperature variations, the deviation over 10m distance may
increase.

鐳射等級
NT-6580 產品設有可見鐳射，並從儀器的前端發射。
本產品屬於二級鐳射產品：
不要直視雷射光束，在不必要的情況下不要瞄準他人。眼睛會本能地通過
轉視或眨眼等行為來保護眼睛。
警告
通過光學鏡片（如：目鏡、望遠鏡等）直視雷射光束，會對眼睛造成危害。

預防措施：
不要通過光學鏡片直視雷射光束。
小心
用眼睛直視雷射光束會對眼睛造成危害。
預防措施：
不要直視雷射光束。注意使雷射光束在眼睛的上方或下方射過。（特別是
在將儀器固定在機械設備上等情況下）。
