Topcon is offering a new app for its pipe laying tools

By pairing an Android mobile device via Bluetooth with the new TP-L6 pipe laser, operators will be able to set up and make changes from a phone to their lasers. The mobile app connectivity is designed to provide flexibility for making adjustments and ease of use on the jobsite.  

The operator can set slope and direction as well as plumb beam and various beam configurations from the mobile app. This reduces the need to enter manholes to make adjustments, boosting safety, efficiency and productivity. The operator can also use the mobile device for individual pairings with multiple lasers, eliminating separate controllers for each instrument. The app is available on Google Play.
