Abstract

A method includes comparing a received beam hitting a laser receiver in a transverse arrangement with a rotating laser beam which is moved about an axis of rotation in a vertical position by a rotary laser. The laser receiver includes an evaluating unit and a detection field having a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction. The rotary laser is arranged on a rotational platform that can be adjusted about a rotation axis, and the vertical laser plane that the rotating laser beam produces is moved by the rotational platform in a direction of rotation about the rotation axis. In the longitudinal direction of the detection field, an adjustment direction of the received beam relative to the laser receiver is determined by the evaluating unit and the adjustment direction of the received beam is compared with the direction of rotation of the rotational platform by the evaluating unit.
