Abstract
A method for comparing a reception beam incident on a laser receiver with a rotating laser beam transmitted by a rotating laser in a direction of rotation, where the laser receiver includes an evaluation unit and a detection field having a first measuring range and a second measuring area, includes, when the reception beam is incident on the detection field, determining a first reception signal which represents a first time trend of the incident reception beam in the first measuring range and a second reception signal which represents a second time trend of the incident reception beam in the second measuring range. A direction of movement of the reception beam relative to the laser receiver from the first and the second reception signals is determined. The direction of the movement of the reception beam is compared by the evaluation unit with the direction of rotation of the rotating laser beam.
