# Measure With Moasure LX1

This section explains how to capture a complete floor plan using Moasure LX1.

Moasure LX1 measures continuously while in motion. Each time you place the device flat and fully still against a wall, LX1 captures a measurement point.

Your floor plan builds in real time as you move around the room.

By following the workflow in this section, you can capture:

* Wall geometry
* Door positions
* Window positions
* Stair locations
* Wardrobe / Closet positions
* Ceiling heights
* Multi-room layouts
* Overall floor plan measurements

### How Moasure LX1 Measures

Unlike traditional laser distance meters, LX1 does not require you to measure the length of each wall individually.

Instead:

* Move steadily between walls
* Place LX1 flat against each wall
* Hold the device fully still while the measurement point is captured
* The app uses the captured wall planes to calculate the room geometry and corners automatically

**You do not need to place LX1 directly into each corner.** Corners are calculated from the adjoining wall planes.

This means you can place LX1 anywhere along an accessible section of wall, helping you work around furniture, radiators and other obstacles.

### Before You Begin

Before starting your first room:

* Choose a clear wall as your starting wall
* Start on a plain section of wall, not a doorway or other feature
* Check which **Reference Point** is active
* Make sure you have enough space to move safely around the room

For best results:

* Start and finish on the **same wall plane**
* Move at a steady, controlled pace
* Place LX1 smoothly and flat against each wall
* Hold the device fully still until the point is captured
* Turn your body smoothly as you change direction

Good **Pace, Placement and Rotation** will help you achieve the best results with LX1.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.moasure.com/en/moasure-lx1/measure-with-moasure-lx1.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
