These are the questions I am most frequently asked:
1. How can I trigger a delayed shot or measurement?
To trigger delayed measurement, you must first set the Shot Delay option in the Option menu to a value greater than 0 s. After this is set, when the laser is on, press and hold the DIST button for 2 seconds to start the delayed measurement. This design allows users to use delayed shot when only make the leg shot. When measuring splays, users can continue measuring without delay, without needing to enter the menu to change the settings.
2. What is the size of the tripod mounting thread on the Cavway X1?
Standard 1/4"-20 UNC thread.
3. Does the Cavway X1 use the same calibration method as the DistoX?
Yes. They use the same calibration method, and we recommend performing the calibration by hand. If a jig is used for calibration, it must include an adjustment mechanism that allows the laser spot to remain at the same position while the device is rotated.
