How to use the Disto endpiece
The endpiece is an integral part of the tool, connected to the circuit board. In the closed position the DISTO knows to measure from its base. Flip it open 90 degrees to align the base perfectly on an edge or corner. Flip it out all the way and you can accurately measure diagonals.How to use the volume function
With only two or three measurements, you can quickly and precisely calculate the area of a ceiling, floor or wall, or the volume of a room. No need to note down the individual values! The result is calculated automatically and shown on the display.How to use the painter function
With this function you can determine e.g. the total wall area of a room without having to note down any intermediate results. Simply measure the lengths of the walls, which you can add or subtract as required. Finally measure the room height, which is then automatically multiplied by the previously calculated value.Leica DISTO Sketch App
The Leica DISTO™ sketch app simplifies everyday measuring tasks, by allowing you to create a photo-referenced layout or sketch including distance measurements. The Leica DISTO™ sketch can be downloaded for free and allows you to create a sketch or photograph on your smartphone and then easily transfer the measurements from the Leica DISTO™ via Bluetooth® technology.Leica DISTO Profile Measurement
Target the device on a known reference mark and then measure the height differences of other points relative to this. If the measured points are taken all in one direction the profile of the ground can be determined from the measured horizontal distances and the height differences.Leica DISTO Height Tracking
You can determine the heights of buildings or trees that have no suitable reflective points by using the height tracking function. Target with the Pointfinder on the bottom point of the height to be measured and take a measurement. Then target on the top point of the object. The display then shows the height.Leica DISTO Area Measurement
With only two or three measurements, you can quickly and precisely calculate the area of a ceiling, floor or wall, or the volume of a room. No need to note down the individual values! The result is calculated automatically and shown on the display. -
