the height based on the distances from the
same point to 2 or 3 points on the object.
The tool will use the Pythagorean Theorem
(A2+B2=C2) to calculate the height.
Distances to 2 Points
You can use the distance to two points on
a tall object (Double Indirect Height) to
determine its height (Figure I1).
1. Point the tool's laser (Figure A
a wall or object, and not toward anyone's
eyes.
2. Press On button (Figure A

4. Position the tool opposite the bottom of
the building or object whose height you
need to measure (Figure I2).
5. Aim the laser at the highest point of the
building or object (Figure I2).
6. Press On button (Figure A

7. From the same point, aim the laser
straight ahead toward the lowest point of
the building or object (Figure I3).
8. Press On button (Figure A

9. On the bottom line of the screen, view the
height of the building or object.
Distances to 3 Points
You can use the distance to three points on a
tall object to determine its height (Figure J1).
1. Point the tool's laser (Figure A
