General Hints
How to send Measurements
If a measurement from the DISTO™ to the PC has to be sent, there are different procedures
according to the different DISTO™:
o
When using the Leica DISTO™ plus press the [Enter] key.
o
When using the Leica DISTO™ A6 press the [Bluetooth] key.
[Enter] and [Tab] Settings
o
If [Enter] and [Tab] are both marked, than the measurement value, an [Enter] and then a [Tab]
is transferred.
o
When neither [Enter] nor [Tab] is marked, a blank space is sent after the measurement. This is
most useful for the transfer into programs like AutoCAD. AutoCAD treats the blank space as
confirmation.
Using the DISTO™ Cursor Keys
If the [2nd] key of the DISTO™ keyboard is pressed, the second keyboard layer of the DISTO™
keyboard is activated. Now the cursor keys are active, and the PC cursor can be directed via the Leica
DISTO™. This is very convenient for Excel or similar programs.
