Why is the laser dot on short distances not centered to the crosshair respectively jumps from the middle of the screen to the laser dot?

Since the laser exit is not in the same axis as the camera there will be the so called parallax error. This means that on short distances the laser deviates from the haircross on the display. The TruPoint 300 uses a software which detects the laser dot and corrects the haircross on the display accordingly. This also works in conditions with strong ambient light where the laser dot is not visible to the naked eye and ensures the user is measuring to the laser dot independently to any parallax error.

How accurate is the tilt sensor in the TruPoint 300?

The accuracy of the tilt sensor in the device is ±0.1° to the housing of the device. To the laser beam the maximum deviation can be up to -0.1° and +0.2°. This applies at room temperature (20°C – 30°C). At any other temperatures the maximum deviation increases by ±0.1°.

What is the angular range of the tilt sensor in the TruPoint 300?

The integrated tilt sensor in the TruPoint 300 functions in the range 360° and at a transverse tilt of < ±10°. If the device is held at > ±10° transversely, the info code “i156” appears in the display and indicates that the device is tilted too much.

Why can I do levelling of the TRUPOINT 300 respectively must do it for some of the functions?

If measurement results should refer to a horizontal plane (e.g. absolute measurements or measurements to use in CAD systems) the instrument must be calibrated right before measuring. Doing this errors from slightly inclined measuring bases are automatically compensated. The range for this levelling is +/- 5°.

Which area is measured when using the Smart Area Function?

The area given by the measured points will be measured. So if the area is inclined as it is e.g. on a roof of a building the real area will be measured.

The TruPoint 300 includes functions for measuring with the picture. What is the accuracy of such measurements?

The accuracy highly depends on how the function is used. Best results can be achieved when the measuring object is displayed maximum size at the TRUPOINT 300. In such case the accuracy is below 1% of the measured object. This applies for width, area and diameter measurements.

Can the historical storage memory of 30 values in the device be erased?

Yes, the memory in the device can be erased by pressing the delete button when in the memory. All memory values will be deleted.
