ARROW BUTTONS
The arrow buttons (G, H) are used for different functions depending
on the operating mode of the laser unit.
In Self-Leveling Horizontal Mode:
The arrows buttons adjust the direction of the laser beam in
Scan Mode or Pointing Mode (0 rpm).
In Self-Leveling Vertical Mode:
The arrow buttons move the laser beam left and right.
In Manual Mode:
The arrow buttons are used to tilt the laser head.
NOTE: Refer to Using the Wireless Remote Control for a full
description of Manual Mode.
SPEED/ROTATION BUTTON
The speed/rotation button (E) is used to adjust the rotation speed
of the laser beam through its 4 preset speeds.
The head speed will cycle through 4 speeds, then repeat the
sequence as the speed/rotation button is pressed.
REMEMBER:
Slow speed = Bright Beam Fast Speed = Solid Beam
NOTE: The speed/rotation button performs the same function as
the speed/rotation button on the remote control.
SCAN MODE BUTTON
The scan mode button (F) is used to make the laser head sweep
back and forth, creating a short, bright laser line. This short line is
much brighter and more visible than when the unit is in full rotation
mode.
Using Scan Mode:
To enter Scan Mode, push and release the scan mode
button. To exit Scan Mode, push and release the button
again.
The size and direction of the scan zone can be controlled
with the arrow buttons on the laser unit control panel or the
remote control. For a more detailed explanation, refer to
Using the Wireless Remote Control.
The size and direction of the scan zone can also be controlled
manually with the User Defined Scan Mode:
1. Set the laser unit at 0 rpm (pointer mode).
2. Manually rotate the laser head to position the laser beam
at one edge of the desired scan zone.
3. Press and hold the scan mode button on the laser unit
control panel. While holding down the scan mode button,
manually rotate the laser head to the opposite edge of the
desired scan zone.
4. Release the scan mode button.
5. The laser will scan between the two selected points.
NOTE: If the scan mode button is pressed and held, but the
laser head is not manually rotated, after four seconds the unit
will enter Private Mode or No Remote Mode as described
below.
IMPORTANT: The remote control cannot be used for User
Defined Scan Mode.
PUBLIC, PRIVATE AND NO REMOTE MODES
The DW079 Rotary Laser and the DW0794 Remote Control each
have the capability to operate in either Public Mode or Private
Mode. For the laser and the remote control to work together, they
must both be set to the same mode. The laser unit can also be set
to No Remote Mode, which causes it to ignore all remote control
commands.
Public Mode
The laser unit can receive commands from any DEWALT
laser remote control, and even from some other brands of
