ON Key and Measurement Key

Measuring

Switch on DISTO. In general for all keys:
Press and then release (basic function).
Switch on laser, the symbol flashes on the display (automatic
switch off after 30 sec).
A second press starts the distance measurement, "diSt" appears briefly on the display.
14
ON Key and Measurement Key

Continuous measurement (Tracking)

A second, long press (approx. 1 sec) initiates continuous
measurement (tracking) mode. "trc" appears on the display. The
measurements are repeated in a fraction of a second.
; ; Stop.

Laser in continuous operation

In normal mode, press key until the
symbol is continuously
illuminated and a long "beep" is heard.
A distance measurement is triggered each time the key is pressed.
15

Plus/Minus Key

Quick switching off

Press simultaneously –
= Quick switch off of the DISTO.

In roll mode

In roll mode , have the function of a cursor in the memory. (See page 19, 20)

Partial heights, chain values

Measurement + measurement = sum / e.g. of partial heights
Measurement Addition Measurement = Sum Measurement – measurement =
difference Measurement Subtraction Measurement = Difference
In the same way chain values.
16

Multiplication Key

Area

Measurement x measurement = area
Measurement Multiplication Measurement = Area

Volume

Measurement x measurement x measurement = Volume
Sum of areas
In the same way, areas/volumes can be added together.
17
Multiplication Key

Time delay release

Switch on Keep pressed
On the screen it shows " " (delay) and a number (delay in seconds) appear on the display.
As long as the key is kept pressed, the delay is increased.
Once the key is released, the seconds 59, 58, 57 ... remaining until the reading is made are displayed. The last 5 secs. are counted down with a "beep". After the last "beep", the measurement is made, the measured value can be read on the display.
18

Equal Key

Provides the results of mathematical operations, such
as areas, volumes...
Settings are confirmed, in the same way as "enter" is used on a PC. Use selected setting or continue with computing using called value.

Doubling a measured value

Using , a measured value can be very easily doubled, e.g. for determining the
length of the walls in a room: Using measure measure
half the length of the walls, then and again and the length of the walls is calculated.
19

Setting Key

The Setting key places the DISTO in the normal mode. This key has the same function as "Clear" on a PC.

Settings in roll mode

The instrument settings can be changed in roll mode.
Reference Offset Units
Applies to all settings in roll mode:
Switch on DISTO. Press once briefly (normal mode).
