Caution
3D Disto, Instrument Setup
12. If 3D Disto cannot be
levelled a pop-up
informs you and the
in the status bar is
blinking. Level the 3D
Disto or cancel the
levelling procedure.
For advanced users only:
If the tilt sensor is OFF the system does not compensate the tilt of the 3D Disto. All
results that refer to a physically horizontal plane, for example tilt, height differences,
horizontal distances, angles, areas, or volumes, now refer to the tilted horizon of the
laser unit. Only the tie distance between two measured points is independent of the
tilt sensor's setting.
It can be useful to disable the tilt sensor in case of vibrations, for example on
construction sites or in unstable or moving environments such as on boats. Almost
all measurements can still be completed and exported data can be "levelled" after-
wards by CAD software.
