I - HOW TO DO A MEASUREMENT
Step 2 : setting of the height reference
• either each profile indepedently. Each profile has so its own reference
level. (level 0)
• or all the profiles bound to a reference level
(All heights measured points are referenced to this level 0 - on the picture
below)
The calculation of the depth of each hole will be linked to the searched
mark (mark line).
1. Connect the cable of the PDA ;
2. Connect the cable to the laser ;
3. Power on the laser ;
4. Power on the PDA ;
5. choose the language to use.
(Menu « File ⇒ Language »)
Step 1 : enter the filename
• Menu « File ⇒FileName »
Enter a filename using the touch keyboard.
This name will be followed by the date.
CONNECTING AND START-UP
Important : before any measurement verify,
that the laser stays horizontal o
n its tripod

•
Set the target height above the reference point
using the buttons :
Reference line = reference point level + target height
the target height is the searched value. This value
can be positive or negative
•
Aim at a point of reference height and click on
the screen or press the « FIRE
» button of the
laser until you hear a beep.
• Press the button on the right side of the
PDA (1) to go to the next step.
Step 3 : measure the height of the face
•
Aim at the crest of the face and click on the
screen or press the « FIRE
» button of the laser
until you hear a beep.
•
Press the button on the right side of the PDA (1)
to go to the next step or the button on the left
side of the PDA (2) to return to the previous
step.

• To delete a other point, you have to go to the next step for editing the
profil.
• When the profiling is finished, press the right side buton of the PDA (1).
Step 5 : enter the characteristics of the borehole
• A borehole may or not appear on the profile.
Enter values using the touch keypad and press
the « OK » button to confirm.
The information entered remain in the memory
of the device. The characteristics of a borehole
can be easily visualized indicating the number
of borehole
• To locate a mining borehole, enter the value of
overdepth drilling. The depth of drilling is
automatically calculated depending on the
drilling angle and the measured height of the
face. For control, enter the value of the depth
of drilling. The drilling overdepth is
automatically calculated depending on the
drilling angle and the measured height of the
face.
Step 4 : profiling
• To insert a measuring point, aim it and press the
« FIRE » button of the laser until you hear a
beep.
The absence of « beep » means that the
software has not received the information.
Repeat the operation.
150 measuring points can be recorded to represent a
profile.
• To delete the last point :
Menu «Profiler ⇒Delete last point »
or
Press the left side button of the PDA (2)
TEPEX measure :
épaisseur de la banquette qui sera
ensuite vérifiée avec la sonde TEPEX.

Step 6 : display of the profile
• By clicking at a point on the curve, the
information displayed in blue: the borehole
depth (6.9m) and the distance between the
front and the borehole (4.4m).
• On this screen its possible to
- delete the profile ;
- modify the profile manually ;
- change the characteristics of the borehole via « profiler ⇒
hole
property » or via the arrowkeys :

to select the parameter(shown in red) : arrows « Up and
Down »,
to change the parameter : arrows « Left and Right ».
• In « Read file » mode, if the profile has changed, a confirmation
screen appears during the transition to the next screen or to the
previous screen.
Step 7: marking on the ground the borehole
The attendance of a second operator and the use of a reflector target are
necessary.
•For this measurement, aim at the target
and press the button « FIRE » of the
laser. The value appears in the view
finder.
•The operator on the top of the face ,
according to the indications of the other
operator, moves forward or back to put
the target at the distance Vselected
point 6 (3,00 on screen above).

II - SHOW THE TABLE OF DRILLING
III - MANUALLY MODIFY OF THE PROFILE
•To modify the position of a point :
1. click on the menu « Profiler ⇒Edition mode » ;
2. press and hold a point on the curve ;
3. move it on the screen.
To show the table press the
5
button.
•On this screen you can change a value by
clicking it and pressing buttons 1or 2to
increase or decrease the values ;
•By pressing the button 5it is possible to
visually modify the characteristics of the
borehole with the same buttons ;
•To enter a value, click on « Profileur ⇒Hole

This function allow to measures a height between a
reference and a point.
To measure the height reference :
1. click on the button « Reference height » ;
2. aim to a point at the reference height and
press the FIRE button of the laser ;
3. aim to the point to measure and press the
FIRE button of the laser.

VI - HOW TO RESET THE PDA
VII - RECHARGING THE PDA
To recharge the PDA, connect the laser
cable or USB cable on the PDA and then
connect the supplied charger on it.
Caution, only use this charger connected
to a 230V (110V adapter is optional).
This funct
ion allows you to reboot
the device without losing the
recorded data, if a software
malfunction is found.

VIII - RACCORDEMENT ORDINATEUR
Printing or changing profile on PC is possible by two methods :
1. Memory card method. The memory card is available below the battery
by removing the cover on the rear of the PDA. The profiles are stored in
the directory « PROFILES »
2. USB method. This method needs to have the Active Sync software for
Windows 95, 98 and XP or Sync mobil Center for Windows Vista or
Windows 7. The PC connection is via the USB cable supplied with the
kit. On connection, the tree of the PDA is displayed (if it is not the case,
this means that the synchronization software is not installed). The
profiles are stored in the « Storage Card/PROFILES »
