Introduction
VISION H
... for the construction professional.
The rotation laser THEIS VISION H sets new standards in the area
of fully automated professional lasers.
It is the result of many years of experience and innovative technol-
ogy.
The high-quality construction laser is distinguished by its rugged-
ness and high precision – Made in Germany – and no construction
site should do without it.
To ensure that your device is always ready for use, observe the
following information:
1. Never store the device in the container when it is wet.
2. Check the precision every time before you use the equipment,
since we can accept no liability for misalignment.
3. Observe the information on handling the battery.
4. Treat carefully the laser exit and sensor windows of the optional
detector.

Keyboard /Display
1. Horizontal Operation
Align the tripod and screw the VISION tight using the
tripod screw. Use the On/Off switch to switch on the
device.
The Laserbeam and the levelling LED is blinking.
If the tripod head is sloping by more than 5°, this is in-
dicated by the laser beam flashing quickly and the
Level LED.
In this case, switch off the unit and align the tripod
more carefully.
Once horizontal levelling is completed, the laser beam
starts to rotate at the last set speed. The
LED
goes out.
2. TILT Function
In the case of major changes to the mounting position
(e.g. accidentally moving the tripod leg), a TILT
function ensures that the device switches off and
draws attention to the fact by the laser beam and the
levelling LED flashing quickly.
Then the device must be rebooted.

3. Power Supply of Laser
When the red LED of the Battery display is blinking the
battery is almost flat. You can work at least 1 hour. The
instrument will switch off.
Charge the battery at room temperature using only the
THEIS standard mains unit connected to the charger
socket below the laser. Charging at temperatures below
+5°C can lead to defects in the battery.
Charging is also possible during operation. Overloading
is not possible.
The LED is blinking alternating during charging the
battery. If the battery is charged ready, the LED is
constantly on, as long as the charger is connected.
Only use the charger on dry premises!
The batteries that are used with Eneloop™
technology have the advantage of low levels of self-
discharge. This means that if you do not use the
device, you only need to recharge it every six
months.
In the battery compartment, you can also use normal
alkaline mono-cells. Under no circumstances must you
recharge them. If you do this by mistake, the battery
symbol flashes.
Important: Observe the correct polarity. There are
±symbols on the base of the battery compartment.
Observe the disposal information in point 11.
Important: Because the battery poles and contacts
may soil over time, resulting in contact problems,
regular inspection and possibly cleaning with a soft
cloth and cleaning agent (spirit, alcohol) are neces-
sary.

4. Detector
Switch on the detector by pressing the On/Off button and
selecting the desired function: Fine or coarse setting (basic
setting of TE 6/7 is coarse) and audible signal. The selected
function is shown on the LCD display.
Apart from this, the display shows you during measurement
about the direction in which you must move the detector (by
means of arrows).
Point the sensor window to the VISION and move it through the
rotating laser beam until there is a display on the LCD. Then
keep following the arrow with the detector until only the centre
bar is displayed continuously.
If the hooter is switched on, a continuous tone is issued when
the bar is displayed. When the arrow is displayed, a differently
pulsating tone indicates whether the detector is being held too
high or too low.
With the TE 7, you set the volume of the hooter in three stages.
If no laser beam hits the detector field (sensor window) for
approximately seven minutes, the detector switches off.
Power supply of detector
If the battery symbol is shown on the LCD display, you should
change the 9 V, E-block battery; otherwise, the range may be
limited.
Open the folding lid of the battery compartment to change the
battery.
Dispose of used batteries correctly (see point 20) and ensure the
correct polarity with the new batteries (observe the symbols).

5. Calibration Check
Set up the laser leveller as described in point 1. (but on an
extremely well aligned tripod) and align it along a traverse length of
approximately 30 metres – starting with the X axis, for example –
and switch it on.
At the end of the traverse length, make a mark at the level of the la-
ser beam. After this, rotate the laser unit by 180° and make another
mark. Then do the same for the Y axis. If all the marks are on top of
each other or are only slightly apart (maximum of 2 mm), adjust-
ment is OK. If the marks are a long way apart, you must get a spe-
cialist firm to check the equipment and recalibrate it.
