Multiplication
Make measurement (e.g. 8.375m).
Multiplication by pressing [ x ] key.
Additional measurements (e.g. 8.375m).
= Area (e.g. 29.313m²)
)
The volume can be calculated by an additional
multiplication following an area calculation.
This function can be used for calculating areas or volumes
with individual partial heights/ partial distances.
Doubling a measured value
It is easy to double the measured values, e.g. to determine
the length of walls in a room:
Make measurement.
Add by [ + ] key.
Make additional measurements.
= Sum (=half circumference)
With key [ + ] repeat, double measured value.
= Sum (=circumference)

ment
)
The measuring sequence must be adhered to in
any case!
)
All three (two) points must be on a vertical or
horizontal line in the plane of the wall!
)
With each of the distance measurements you
can use:
•
a simple distance measurement,
• a value from stack/ mermory or
• a measurement with time delay release.
)
For short distances, a good base behind the
instrument is sufficient for mechanical alignment.
)
You will obtain the best results if the DISTO is
rotated around a fixed point (rear edge, thread position)
and the axis of the laser beam passes through this axis. So
do not simply place the DISTO on a camera tripod. In this
case the axis of the laser beam is approx. 70 to 100mm
above the centre of rotation - this can lead to significant
variations in the height.
