The Spectra Precision RC1402 Radio Remote Control gives single operators full wireless command of compatible Spectra self-leveling laser systems from up to 300 feet away. Built for demanding grade and layout work, the RC1402 eliminates constant trips back to the instrument, keeping crews productive across large construction sites, grading operations, and interior commercial builds. Whether you're dialing in slope on a cut-fill job or switching axes during an elevation layout, this remote puts complete control in your hand.
Purpose-Built for Grade Crews and Solo Operators
On active jobsites, every walk back to the laser is lost time. The RC1402 is engineered to solve that problem. Grade equipment operators can adjust single-axis or dual-axis slopes without leaving the cab. Concrete and flatwork crews can fine-tune elevation and re-level the laser between pours without a helper at the instrument. For contractors running lean crews, the RC1402 effectively turns a two-person operation into a one-person task. With a reliable radio signal that cuts through jobsite interference, the remote performs consistently in open-air grading environments and enclosed structures alike.

Job Applications
Site Grading & Earthwork: Equipment operators can adjust grade laser slope settings from the cab of a motor grader or dozer, eliminating downtime and keeping cuts on spec without stopping the machine.
Concrete Flatwork & Slabs: Flatwork crews can re-level or adjust the laser between pours without a dedicated instrument operator, streamlining the screeding process on warehouse floors and slabs-on-grade.
Commercial Interior Layout: During interior elevation and plumb layout, the RC1402 allows a single technician to reposition and adjust the laser while working from the layout station.
Utility & Pipeline Grade Control: Crews setting pipe grades can verify and fine-tune laser slope remotely while positioned in the trench, reducing the need to climb in and out repeatedly.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Which Spectra lasers is the RC1402 compatible with?
- The RC1402 is compatible with the Spectra GL412N, GL422N, GL1425C grade lasers as well as the HV302 and LL400HV models. It is not a universal remote and will not function with lasers outside this list.
- What functions can I control with the RC1402 remote?
- The RC1402 provides full-function control including slope adjustments on one or both axes, axis selection, laser power on/off, and re-leveling commands — everything you would normally do at the instrument itself.
- What is the effective range of the RC1402?
- The RC1402 operates reliably at distances up to 300 feet (approximately 91 meters) using radio frequency transmission, which performs better than infrared remotes in bright sunlight or when line-of-sight is obstructed.
- Does the RC1402 require any setup or pairing with the laser?
- The RC1402 is designed to work out of the box with compatible Spectra lasers with minimal setup. Refer to your laser's user manual for any model-specific pairing or activation steps required before first use.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Spectra lasers is the RC1402 compatible with?
The RC1402 is compatible with the Spectra GL412N, GL422N, GL1425C grade lasers as well as the HV302 and LL400HV models. It is not a universal remote and will not function with Spectra lasers outside this compatibility list.
What functions can I control with the RC1402 remote?
The RC1402 provides full-function wireless control including slope adjustments on one or both axes, axis selection, laser power on/off, and re-leveling — the same operations you would perform directly at the instrument.
What is the effective range of the RC1402?
The RC1402 operates reliably at distances up to 300 feet (approximately 91 meters). It uses radio frequency (RF) transmission, which is more consistent than infrared in bright sunlight and in situations where direct line-of-sight to the laser is partially blocked.
Does the RC1402 require any setup or pairing with the laser?
The RC1402 is designed to work with compatible Spectra lasers with minimal setup required. Always consult your specific laser model's user manual for any pairing or activation procedures recommended before first use in the field.
