Vertical Calibration
Check
• Find a door jamb about 2m / 6.5’ high.
• Mark point A at 2.45m / 8’ from door
jamb
• Turn on LT56 vertical line and place it
at point A toward the door jamb.
• Use the vertical line to mark point B
under the door jamb, mark point C at
the top of the door jamb and point D at
2.45m / 8’ beyond the door jamb.
• Move the LT56 to point D and align the
vertical line with points A, B and D.
• Mark the point where the vertical line is
on top of the door jamb near point C.
• If the line is within 1mm / 1/32”, the
vertical line is in tolerance.

Applications
It is recommended to occasionally check the calibration of the LT56.

• Find a room with a minimum 5m (16’) width
• Turn on both horizontal and vertical lines
• Place LT56 near one of the walls (fig.1.)
• Mark horizontal line on near wall A

• Move tripod to location near the other wall (fig 2)
• Align LT56 so that horizontal line is aligned directly on point B
• Rotate the LT56 and mark the horizontal line above/below on on Point A.
Call this C.
• The difference between A and C is the accuracy of 2x the distance between
the walls
1 beam - 45 hours
2 beam - 35hours
3 beam - 25 hours
Charge time
Charger
12 hours (30 minute quick charge will provide
2 hours operation with 2 beams)
Input: 100-240V AC 190 mA
Output: 5V DC 800mA
• Example. Distance between the walls is 5m (16’) and distance between A
and C is 3mm (1/16”), then accuracy is 1.6 mm at 10m (1/16” at 32 ft).
