The PLS5 system includes a layout target that has two valuable uses: 1) establishing horizontal 90º points and 2) transferring vertical points to a wall and/or columns. For example, when a contractor wants to transfer a control line which is on the slab or building pad to an existing wall or column, the head of the PLS5 can be positioned against the wall with the plumb (down) beam aligned on the existing control line. Placing the layout target against the wall or column above the laser, the contractor can center the plumb (up) beam through the yellow plastic target, mark the perpendicular pin, and snap a chalk line.
