2.3 Setting up 430
Position
The T430 Laser depending on the task can be positioned vertically (upright) horizontally
(lying or prone) or at a freely selectable angle.
Upright Position
In the upright position the static beam is in the
vertical plane and the rotating beam is in the
horizontal plane.
Lying or prone position
In the prone position the static beam
is in the horizontal plane and the
rotating beam is in the vertical plane.
The T430 can be used without
additional equipment when being
used in the upright position. When
being used without attachments the
laser beam hits the receiver at
around 0 00 mm when R280 or R290
(with magnet adapter) is being used.
GETTING STARTED

11
Status Pro – T430 User Guide

12 Status Pro – T430 User Guide
2.5 Adjust the 430
Levelling
The T430 has different internal electronic spirit levels enabling the laser beam or plane to
be “aligned“ or levelled parallel to the earths gravitational “pull“.
Using this function a reference plane (laser plane) against which the measurement
object can be measured is quickly and easily established.
In the upright position the T430 is firstly adjusted roughly
by using the designated coarse spirit level.
After pressing the self-levelling button the rotational laser
plane will be adjusted exactly to level and according to
that the static beam will be exactly vertical.
Using the T430 in the prone position
the levelling process levels the static beam
and the rotational laser plane will be exactly vertical.
The automatic accomplishment of the levelling is
furthermore possible by using the setting layout of the
Launchpad software according to the special
measurement task. Another opportunity is to
use the button on the keypad of the T430.

3. RC310 Remote Control
The RC310 is a remote control device with several functions.
Its primary use is to enable operation of the T430 without physically touching the laser
unit all functions of the T430 are possible using the RC310 except for turning on and off.
The RC310 can also be used for showing the measurement
value of a R310 reveiver if the sensor is at a distance from the
Laser. The measurement value from the R280 or R290 is trans-
mitted to the RC310 over infrared.
It is strongly recommended to work with the Launchpad soft-
ware instead of the RC310 Remote Control.
RC 310 REMOTE CONTROL
2.6 Control via Infrared
The T430 can receive commands via infrared and not
only by bluetooth. These signals can be sent using either
the RC310 Remote Control (see Chapt. 3) or using the
Receivers R280 or R290.
It is important that the infrared receiver can receive the
signals and consequently process them further.
When an R280 or R290 sends a command to the laser movement in the X or Y axis
depending on which has been selected will infrared be activated. The laser moves within
the axis until a value of 0 00 is reached. As long as infrared is active the laser will be cor-
rected to 0 00 should the value drift.

3.4 Communication between the RC310 and the
R310 Sensor
There are three kinds of signal that can be sent from the R310 to the RC310:
Laser position without controlling unction
In this mode the position value or measurement value on the R310 is transmitted to the
RC310 providing the R310 is set to RC310 in the menu and the IR button on the R310 has
been activated.
Laser position with remote controlling o the T430 Laser
When the remote controlling of a particular axis has been selected from the R310 menu
the position of the laser beam will be moved accordingly. Additionally the measurement
value will be transmitted to the RC310 along with the axis being presently controlled. The
values shown on the R310 can differ slightly from the value being displayed by the RC310
as the values for the laser positioning are evaluated slightly differently.
Again to achieve laser positioning of the T430 Laser and obtain values on the RC310 the
infra-red on the R310 must be activated.

Calibration command rom the RC310
For Information only when the R310 has sent a command to the T430 for re-calibration
the axis which has been calibrated will be shown in the RC310 display.
Please observe the ollowing:
• To ensure trouble-free operation ensure that nothing obstructs the line of sight
between RC310 and its receiving instrument
• “Point” the RC310 in the direction of its receiving instrument
• If the remote distance range is drastically reduced replace the battery as a first
action. To do this remove the RC310 from its protective rubber casing then open the
battery cover on the reverse side of the housing. The battery is a 9-Volt block battery
• The maximum operating range of the RC310 is 50 metres
• The R310 can only send a signal when a laser beam is being measured
• When an IR signal is interrupted the last received value will be displayed for
approx. 2 seconds
