These limits are designed to provide reason-able protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This receiver generates radio frequency. If it’s not used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio or televi-sion reception. Such interference can be determined by turning the re-ceiver off and on. You are encouraged to try eliminating the interference by one or more of the following measures:• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.• Increase the separation between the laser and the receiver.For more information, consult your dealer or an experienceradio/television technician.CAUTION: Changes or modications to the receiver that are not ex-pressly approved by Trimble could void authority to use the equipment.Declaration of ConformityApplication of Council Directive(s): 89/336/EECManufacturer’s Name: Trimble Navigation Ltd.European Representative Address: Trimble GmbH Am Prime Parc 11 65479 Raunheim, GermanyConformance to Directive(s): EC Directive 89/336/EEC using EN55022 and EN50082-1Equipment Type/Environment: ITE/residential, commercial & light industrialProduct Standards: Product meets the limit B and methods of EN55022 Product meets the levels and methods of IEC 801-2, 8 kV air, 4 kV contact IEC 801-3, 3 V/m 26 to 1000 MHz 80%, @ 1 kHz1.

1. Pair the Two HL750’s (NOTE: The Pair operation is only required once)Turn on both HL750 Laserometers that are to be paired and follow below directions for both units.Enter the MENU of the HL750’s. The RDIO functions will be shownEnter the RDIO functions to display the MODE selectionIf HL is not displayed, Enter the MODE function and scroll up or down to select HL for each HL750 and ENTER.Scroll down to PAIR function. ENTER to activate pairing. The PAIR symbol will rotate briefly until both units complete the PAIR operation. PAIR OK indicates function complete.2. Remote OperationTurn both HL750’s Off.The first HL750 turned on becomes the laser SENSOR (receiver). The second HL750 turned on becomes the REMOTE DISPLAY / CONTROL PANEL.Turn on the SENSOR HL750 first. Mount at the desired elevation so that it can receive the laser beam.Turn on the REMOTE DISPLAY / CONTROL PANEL HL750 second.RMT.D – OK will be displayed. Press ENTER to operate this HL750 as the REMOTE DISPLAY / CONTROL PANEL. NOTE: If ENTER is not pressed, both HL750’s will revert to standard operation.During REMOTE DISPLAY / CONTROL PANEL operation, RMT.D is displayed. The Unit will remotely display the elevation readings of the SENSOR, as long as the Antenna symbol shows the two are within radio range of each other: 40 - 100 meters (130 - 330 ft).The RMT.D unit can remotely adjust the Accuracy and Units of Measure of the SENSOR.A) HL750 is in the laser beam and the power is on:Press any switch to return to normal operation.The current elevation read-ing will be held. A flashing display will confirm the reading has been captured.1 x quickB) HL750 is out of the laser beam and power is on:A short intermittent beep (The beeper will turn on to Low if turned off.)+1.Press any switch to return to normal operation.2. Place the HL750 in the beam. (Example: Fasten it to a measuring rod, bring the HL750 into the laser beam. You now have 5 seconds to plumb the rod and get the reading captured.)The beeper will chirp rapidly after approximately 5 seconds to confirm beam capture. A flashing display will also indicate the reading has been captured.+1 x quickSpecial Menu FunctionsRDIO Radio Functions - MODE - PAIR - TESTSENS Sensitivity Medium*-High-LowAVG Averaging algorithm Medium*-High-LowD.R.O.
