# Starting Operation of the Remote Control

When pressing the operating controls, it is possible to bring the measuring tool out of its level position, so that the rotation is briefly interrupted. This effect is avoided when using the remote control.

The remote control remains ready for operation as long as a battery with sufficient voltage is inserted.

Set up the measuring tool in such a manner that the signals of the remote control can directly reach one of the sensors (7). If the remote control cannot be pointed directly at a sensor, the working range will be reduced. By reflecting the signal (e.g. against walls), the working range can be improved even for indirect signals.

After pressing a button on the remote control, the signal transmission indicator (25) will light up, indicating that a signal has been sent out.

It is not possible to switch the measuring tool on/off with the remote control.
