DIGITAL ULTRASONIC DISTANCE ESTIMATOR Model : SW-104G__ \,This sophisticated tool uses the very latest developments in technology to drastically speed up the time taken to make distance estimations. The ProMeasure is used by realtors, surveyors, engineers and builders for a fast easy estimation of sizes, areas and volumes of space at home or oil site. The ProMeasuré has many uses, but is particularly suitable for estimating areas for car- pets, wallpapering use, etc. MAINTENANCE AND CARE - This tool is a technical instrument which should be handled carefully. 1.Clean with a soft damp cloth. Do not immerse in, or spray with water, liquids or abrasive cleaners. 2.The ultrasonic module has been sealed after calibration at the factory. Do not attempt to service or adjust. 3. This tool is temperature compensated. Small variations may occur with change in altitude and humidity. These variations can be ignored for estimating purposes. 4. The sound waves from this unit may be affected by strong cross winds which could affect reading accuracy. 5. This estimator measures from the bottom end of the case (baltery end). TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION *Range: MIN. MAX. 2 Ft. 48 Ft 61 em 145M. Readings in: Ft,/inches.

FEATURES The PRoMessure can recall last reading even alter being switched off. * Automatic hold of reading for 10 seconds. * Power saving automatic shut off 10 seconds after last entry. ® Error indication. Sequential addition feature. « Converts metric readings to imperial and vice versa, * Tough plastic case. Squared and cubed calculation functions. It is recommended that the instruction sheet enclosed is read thoroughly before use. IMPORTANT WARNING The ProMessure is designed as fast and conve- nient distance estimating tools. While they are accurate to high tolerances, they should not be used when exact, absolute measurements are critical. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE: 1.Place in position for distance to be measured (fig. 1). Press and release the ‘ON’ button and the display will show all digits on, then distance reading. Once estimator display settles, the final reading is shown and four (4) beeps will sound. This is indicating your ProMeasure has ‘locked’ the reading into memory. If in doubt, simply repeat to confirm your measurement. (The ProMeasure measures from its base to the target.) * Allow tool to acclimatize to varying temperature Surroundings. Z2. Your display will go blank 10 seconds after the reading, or within 10 seconds if no reading is achieved, it is then in the ‘OFF’ mode. iA few minutes practice will pay dividends.) 3. Your PaoMeasure will give you readings in: metres and centimetres, feet and tenths of a foot, or feet and inches, which enables you {0 easily multiply for area and volume calculations, 4. Press the ‘MODE’ key momentarily to alternate between metres, feet and tenths ofa fool, or feet and inches, 5. Press the ‘RECALL’ key to recall last reading fom memory. This function is active also when display is blank. HELPFUL HINTS it you see ERROR’ on the display, your ProMessumé is not receiving a proper reflected Sonic signal, or you are aiming at a ran beyond its capabilities i.e. over 14.5 M (48 ft.) Corrective action: move closer to your target, Of adjust the angle of your instrument. Caution: Sonic signals may not be reflected - by certain sound absorbing materials such as _ curtains, upholstery and carpeting. Irregular Surfaces may also give a variance in readings. it you see ‘LO BAT’ on your display, this indicates the battery is low. Should this occur, remove the batteries and Ordinarily it is not possible to measure through doors and windows, however, depending on how close your PaoMeasure is to the opening, you may obtain satisfactory results by making repeat- ed measurements at varying angles and eleva- tions until a correct estimate is achieved. In Fig. 2 the distance to the step ladder wil! be measured instead of the wall. The PaoMeasune requires a clear view within a cone of +7°. Ensure that your body does nat enter this +7° cone as shown in Fig. 3 replace with three 3V lithium batteries (CR2032), Your ProMeasure is designed to operate fram a Minimum distance of 60 cms (2 feet). If you atlempt to measure under this distance you will receive a false reading. When measuring long distances or narrow spaces the +7°. of An object in the path of the ProMeasure beam can provide you with a false reading. Simply move the PROMEASURE above, or fo the side of the obstruction. uilrasonic pulses wail tough the walls and/or ceiling and/or floor. AS shown in Fig. 4 any projections or recesses will fefurn an ullrasoni¢ echo and the PeoMeasune will indicate the distance to the closest reflection; which is the upper recess.To overcome reading errors in long narrow or other Coniined spaces readings in each direction may be added logether fo give the overall dimensions a8 shown in Figs. 5 and 6 SUM SEQUENTIAL ADDITION OPERATION This function is used to add sequential measurements together to give a final combined reading/measurement. For example, if the length of the room to be measured exceeds the maxi- mum capacity of this unit, i.e. 44.5M set the ProMeasure on a fixed point in the room (see Figs. 5 and 6) and take a reading in both “directions using the ‘SUM' key pad to quickly add both readings giving the overall length of the room. _ HOWTO USE THE SUM KEY: 1. Press CLS SUM to clear any previous sequential additions in memory. 2. Press ON 3. Make the first distance measurement (e.g. 1 metre). 4 Press SUM 5, Press ON 6. Make the second distance measurement (e.g. 2 metres). 7. Press SUM 8. The unit will have automatically combined the two distance measurements and will give a combined reading of both (e.g. 1 metre + 2 metres = 3 metres). AREA CALCULATIONS This function is used to calculate areas very quickly. HOW TO USE THE AREA KEY 1.Press ON 2. Measure the length of the room. 3. Press L 4. Position unit and press ON 5. Measure the width of the room. 6. Press W 7. Press AREA 8. The unit will have automatically calculated the area of the room based on your length and width readings. VOLUME CALCULATIONS This function is used to calculate volume very quickly. HOW TO USE THE VOL KEY 1. Press ON 2. Measure the length of the room. 3. Press L 4. Position unit and press ON 5. Measure the width of the room. 6. Press W 7. Position unit and press ON 8. Measure the height of the room. 9. Press H 10. Press VOL 11. The unit will have automatically calculated the volume of the room based on your length, width and height readings. 6PROMEASURE — LIQUID CRYSTAL DISPLAY TO CLEAR LAST READING AND CANCEL SEQUENTIAL ADDITIONS OPERATION SEQUENTIAL ADDITION __ OPERATIONS LAST READING RECALL FOR CONVERTING READINGS FROM METRIC TO IMPERIAL AND VICE VERSA TO MEASURE WIDTHS TO MEASURE LENGTHS —— TO MEASURE HEIGHTS AREACALCULATIONS —— VOLUME CALCULATIONS
