Working with BLUETOOTH®
Switching on BLUETOOTH® / sending measu-
rements
A quick press on the - key starts DISTO™ BLUETOOTH®. The data
connection must then be established out from Pocket PC / PC by the
application software. A grey
- icon will appear in the display until this
has been successfully completed. BLUETOOTH® automatically switches
off if the connection to the Pocket PC / PC is not established within 240
sec from when the BLUETOOTH® was switched on.
)
When the first connection between the Pocket PC/PC and the
DISTO™ is being established, a query for the Pin-code of the DISTO™
may be displayed. In such a case, enter the code 0000 into your Pocket PC/
PC.
Switching off BLUETOOTH®
BLUETOOTH® switches off as soon as the DISTO™ is switched off.
The direction keys
Eight direction keys (identified by a small arrow near the key) on the
operator's keypad are used to manoeuvre the cursor. The direction keys
become active when you switch to the second level (by pressing the
key). The distance measuring key is active in both levels. The functionality
of the direction keys depends on the software used.
Transmitting the measurement
If your software supports the direction keys use them to select the appro-
priate position for the cursor.
Press the button briefly to transfer the value from the summary row
to the pocket PC / PC.
For further details please consult your manual for the software used.
Selecting particular values in the display
The display shows a number of measurements (min., max., last measu-
rement taken). By pressing and holding the
button you can select all
measurements in the display for transmitting (blue lines under the measu-
rements). When you press the
- key or the - key you can select
one specific value. Once selected the measurement can be transmitted
using the
- key. The same selection process can be used for areas,
volumes, indirect measurements and room dimensions.
During data transmission
If the data is not confirmed as being successfully received by the Pocket PC/
PC then no new measurement can be processed. The Info code "240"
appears in the display if no data transmission has taken place after 2
seconds. Press the
- key and repeat the measurement and then
transmit it.
)
If Bluetooth transmission is limited, the PC may have Bluetooth
hardware with a shorter range. In this case we recommend the usage of an
external Bluetooth USB adapter of class 2.
