Spectra Precision Single Grade Laser
GL412N-42 with HL450 Receiver and RC1402 Remote, INCHES-Rod, Tripod and Large System Case
One Laser. Level, Grade and Plumb.
The automatic, self-leveling Spectra Precision® GL412N-42 single grade laser is the most rugged, cost-effective laser that does three jobs—level, grade, and vertical alignment. Even in harsh jobsite conditions, the GL412N-42 delivers consistently reliable and accurate performance, enabling you to work faster and smarter.
The rugged GL412N lasers can withstand drops of up to three feet onto concrete and tripod tip-overs up to five feet. This strength, combined with full weatherproofing and dustproofing, reduces downtime and lowers repair costs over the life of the product.
The GL412N-42 laser system includes the HL450 Digital Readout receiver with its C45 rod clamp. It shows how far off grade you are as a number, on displays front and back, and calls high, low and on grade with a tone: slow beep high, constant tone on grade, fast beep low.
Grade Match and PlaneLok require the HL760 or CR700 receiver. Both features, and Fingerprint pairing, need the laser and the receiver talking over radio, and the HL450 has no radio link. For them, choose our GL412N-72 kit with the HL760.

5-Year Warranty
On the GL412N laser, materials and workmanship. Calibration is the owner’s job.


The laser sets the grade. The HL450 gives you the number.

- Single grade. Enter a grade on the Y axis from -10% to +15%; it self-levels to it and holds the other axis level.
- 1/16″ at 100 ft level, 1/8″ at 100 ft on grade. 300 / 600 rpm.
- Self-levels within ±5° (±9%); grades past 9% need the laser pre-tilted.
- The RC1402 radio remote runs every keypad function from up to 330 ft.
- HI alert: bump the tripod and it stops and warns you, instead of letting you work off a bad setup.
- A 3 ft drop onto concrete, a 5 ft tripod tip-over, sealed to IP66.

- A 4-inch reception window with a 3-inch digital readout: the distance off grade as a number, not just a beep.
- Reads in mm, cm, feet and inches or fractional inches, on displays front and back.
- Ships on its C45 rod clamp.
- Tone and readout: slow beep high, constant tone on grade, fast beep low.
- IP67, 70+ hours on 2 AA batteries.

Built to Do Three Jobs Well.

Where This Laser Earns Its Keep.


Applications from our GL412N listing and Spectra’s GL412N/GL422N datasheet.
See It On the Job.
Our GL412N overview, Spectra’s own Grade Match and PlaneLok demos, and the digital readout receivers explained. Pick one and it plays here. Grade Match and PlaneLok need a radio receiver such as the HL760; the HL450 in this kit reads the beam but has no radio.

Grade, Two Ways — Type It or Step It.
Press M, pick Grade, press E. The GL412N gives you two ways to put the number in, and you choose which one in the Settings menu. Either way it self-levels to the new grade, and the “A” symbols flash on the screen until it is there.
Digit Select (the default)
A cursor flashes on the Y grade. Left and Right move it digit by digit, Up and Down set each digit and the sign. Press E and the laser goes to grade. Hold Manual for 2 seconds to zero it.
Step and Go
Hold Up or Down and the grade changes, faster the longer you hold. Hold both together and it jumps to 0% and then moves in whole 1% steps. Press E to confirm.
Manual tilt
Press Manual and the arrows tilt the beam by hand on either axis, with no number entered. Press it again to go back to automatic.
Grade in percent or degrees
Read grade the way your plans are written: percent, degrees, or per mille (‰, tenths of a percent). Pick it once in the laser’s Settings menu, along with the HI alert time and the sensitivity.


Vertical PlaneLok: fit the 105516 adapter, photocell at the bottom, and keep the HL760 at least 2 ft off the ground.
Steps from the Spectra GL412N/GL422N user guide (2024) and Hands-On Training. Both are under Downloads.
The HL450 Gives You the Number.
The HL450 puts a number on the screen. It reads out how far you are off grade instead of only pointing at it, so nobody slides the receiver up and down the rod hunting for the on-grade tone.
Two numbers describe it. The SuperCell reception window is 4 inches (102 mm) tall: that is the band over which it detects the beam, so you find it fast coming up the rod. The numeric readout covers the middle 3 inches (76 mm), 1.5 inches either side of grade. Inside that band you get a measurement; outside it, the arrows and the tone tell you which way to move.
There is an LCD on the front and on the back, so you read it from whichever side of the rod you are standing on. It calls grade by tone as well: slow beep high, constant tone on grade, fast beep low. The HL450 has no coloured grade lights; it works on the readout and the tone.
What it does not do, so you are not surprised: the HL450 has no radio. It reads the GL412N’s beam but does not talk back to the laser, so Grade Match, PlaneLok and Fingerprint pairing are not available with it. Those need the HL760, which ships in our GL412N-72 kit, or the CR700. Level, grade on the Y axis, vertical, mask mode and the HI alert all work the same.

The Spectra RC1402 remote control mirrors the functionality of the laser keypad and offers additional features using the M and E buttons. This RC1402 Remote allows you to control the laser features and functions up to 330-feet away from the laser. Allowing for one person operation in many jobsite applications.
Automatic Grade Match and Plane Lok on the remote need an HL760 or CR700 radio receiver; the HL450 in this kit has no radio. Every other control works with it.

Two Things Worth Knowing.
Power: rechargeable, with an alkaline backup
The NiMH pack runs 35 hours and charges in about 13 hours. Forget to charge it and the laser still runs on 4 D-cell alkalines (not included), and indoors the charger can power it directly. Never take the cells out of the rechargeable holder to fit alkalines: Spectra warns that charging will then damage the unit.
Check it before the job, and after any drop
The GL412N carries a 5-year warranty on materials and workmanship, but calibration is the user’s responsibility. The 100 ft wall check takes a few minutes after a 20-minute warm-up; it is step by step in the user guide under Downloads.

What the LEDs Are Telling You.
Green, flashing once a second
Self-leveling. Wait for it.
Green, solid, then a flash every 4 seconds
Level, and the HI alert is armed. Solid for the first 5 minutes or 30 seconds, depending on your HI alert setting.
Red HI/MAN, flashing once a second
Manual mode: the beam is not self-leveling.
Red HI/MAN, flashing every 5 seconds
Standby: the beam is off, the HI alert stays on. Hold Manual 3 seconds to wake it.
Red battery LED flashing
Battery getting low (3.8 to 4.0 V). Solid red means charge it now.
