2.2 Intended use
The iOX5 is a Line/Point Laser which enables a single person to level and align plumbing
points as well as 90 degree angles horizontally and vertically.
The device is designed to be preferably used indoors. For outdoor applications, it must
be ensured that the ambient conditions similar to those indoors.
The visibility range of the laser lines depends on the ambient conditions. Under low light
conditions or for long distances the receiver iOX5-REC can be used to locate the laser
line position.
Follow the instructions contained in this manual. The device and accessory equipment
may be a source of dangers if they are utilized improperly or inappropriately by persons
who are not instructed as required.

7. Operation
7.1 iOX5
7.1.1 On/off switching
On:
> Move the sliding switch downward (the device will emit all lines and points from the
orifices).
The instrument will level itself automatically within the specified inclination range (see
Chapter 3 / Technical data).
Off:
> Move the sliding switch upwards, the pendulum unit will be locked.
NOTE
Magnets can affect the measurement instrument and lead to false results.
If the vertical laser line is not projected vertically to the wall or to the detection surface,
uneven surfaces can lead to erroneous measurement results.
> Make sure that the vertical laser line is projected vertically to the wall or to the
detection surface.
Severe temperature fluctuations can lead to erroneous measurement results.
> Before startup the device let it acclimate to the environmental conditions.
The >ON - BATT< indicator will blink when the battery capacity falls below 10%.
> Charge the battery in time or provide an additional SOLA Li-Ion replacement battery.
7.1.2 PULSE mode
The handheld receiver (iOX5-REC) can be used, to be able to detect the laser lines even
greater distances or under unfavorable environmental conditions. For this, the iOX5
must be used in the pulse operating mode.
On:
> Switch-on the iOX5.
> Press the >MODE< button -> display >PULSE< will be lit.
Off:
> Press the MODE button -> display >PULSE< will be off.
