Measurements
The 3D Disto is a combination of a precise laser distance meter (LDM) and
angle encoders. Measurements are used to establish the relation between dif-
ferent targets, such as horizontal distances, tie distances, height differences
to determine room dimensions, angles from wall to wall, areas, volumes,
plumb points, or other features.
Using Layers
The measurements can be organized on different layers. The coordinate sys-
tem remains the same from one layer to another, so points and lines on sep-
arate layers remain aligned.
The name and colour of the current layer is shown in the title bar.
A short press on the layer window in the title bar will open the layer control
panel.
System layer
Reference and secure points are automatically added to this layer. Its colour
can be changed, it can be hidden and displayed again, but it can't be deleted
or renamed .
