Plumb point

The Plumb Point function allows for the transferring of a point up or down. This function can be used to transfer both physical points that are measured live using the Flexijet laser as well as points on objects drawn in FlexiCAD, and the result can either be placed into the current drawing or projected into real space using the Flexijet laser. This function is available only when a Flexijet is connected to FlexiCAD, and have used Auto-Level to set up your measurement project.

To use this function:

• Select the Plumb Point function, located on the FlexiCAD Ribbon, under ‘Flexijet’.
  

• In the command prompt, FlexiCAD will ask, “Insert plumb line in drawing?”
  You may choose whether you’d like the plumb line inserted into your drawing. The recommended selection is NO for visual projection of a plumb point.
  

• Now, select the point you wish to transfer up or down. You can do this using the mouse or touchscreen on your Computer to select a point in your drawing or by aiming the laser at a point and capturing it.
  

• The command prompt will now read “Aim at plumb point roughly and activate measurement”. If transferring a point from the ceiling to the floor, aim the Flexijet laser roughly at the area of the floor and activate the measurement button.
  
• The laser will now move to project the plumb point. The command prompt will read, “Show points perpendicular from drawing completed!”
