I have a laser-system called "AGL" (Automatic Grade Light)  my problem
is that I don't know the proper way to use it.
Naturally it's fun to play around with the laser beam, (especialy if foggy :-)
byt I would like to use it for some REAL measurements, distance etc.
I have no information what so ever on the thing, so anything would help.
To make things slightly easier there is a smal aluminium sign attached
to the side of the measurement-unit which say:

So I would appreciate any information on the laser-system.
Thanks.

PS, is that company still around ?  DS.
