New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Features
Double tilt measurement with 1 measured distance
 You have to measure the height of a tree?
 You have to measure the heights of windows from
the floor to set up a scaffold?
 With this function you make a first measurement to a reference point as e.g.
trunk of a tree or base of a building. After this you only have to aim to the point
you want to measure the height of and take the reading. Since the second
measurement is only a tilt measurement you don’t need a reflective target (e.g.
leaves or windows).
Please note that both measurements need to be in one vertical line and in one
vertical plane.

New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Features
Double tilt measurement with 1 measured distance
Target Groups for this function:
Facade engineers – measure heights for making a quotation
Forestry, landscaping – taking up tree population
Scaffolder – taking up situation for planning a scaffold
Architect – checks or mapping out for renovation planning
And many more …
18
New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Features
Double tilt measurement with 2 measured distances
 You have to measure the length and pitch of a roof or the
facade of a pitched building?
 You have to measure the absolute height of a building?
 With this function you make a first measurement to the upper point of the object
and than to the lower point. Both times the Leica DISTO™ measures distance
and angle. You will get the direct distance between these two measurement
points. In the second result you will find additional information like the height
difference, horizontal distance and the angle.
Please note that both measurements need to be in one vertical line, but not in the
same plane as explained in the previous function.

Double tilt measurement with 2 measured distances
Target Groups for this function:
Architect – checks or mapping out for renovation planning
Crane operator – measures the height of objects
Roofer, carpenter – measure length and pitch of a roof for quotation
Solar power plant or collectors – size and pitch for calculation
General construction – measure on pitched objects
And many more …

New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Features
Profile measurement
 You have to measure the profile of a land to set up a
scaffold?
 You have to measure several heights on a base plate?
 You need to check the topography of a land?
 With this function you can measure repetitively height differences to a reference
point. If the reference point has a defined height towards a system (has already a
height to another reference or you need values above sea level) you can first
enter a value H for such reference point.
Please note that if you want to measure a profile you need to measure each point
in vertical line and then go for more lines in a certain distance rectangular to the
profile lines (e.g. a profile line each 1m).
Since too flat measurements on a surface can cause deviations please use the
target plate or a reference staff and measure the same point for reference and
profile points afterwards.

Leica DISTO™ D8 – Features
Bluetooth®
 You have to measure often same procedures?
 You want to prevent from expensive mistakes when e.g. twisting digits?
 You are surveying with GPS and need to measure objects where there is no
satellite access?
 You want to transfer data from your Leica DISTO™ to a computer to make a
drawing of a room layout in AutoCAD®?
 With Bluetooth® you are able to transfer wireless to a computer. You can send
distances or angles from your Leica DISTO™ to a PC (Notebook, Tablet PC,
UMPC) or Pocket PC. With the free Leica DISTO™ transfer software you are able
to use the data in any software on your computer like e.g. Excel®, Word®, CAD.
The also free AutoCAD® plug-in allows you to transfer the data directly into the
program so you can make the drawing just on the jobsite. The DISTO™ with its
navigation keys will allow most of the control from itself.
Please note that you can choose whether you want to transfer all data, result
only, choose from any data in the display or even choose from the memory.

 Please note that you can choose whether you want to transfer all data, result
only, choose from any data in the display or even choose from the memory.
 Please note, the complexity of installing a Leica DISTO™ to your PC and Pocket
PC has been reprogrammed and is therefore improved with the latest versions of
Leica DISTO™ transfer for PC and PPC

Applications
You never want to miss it again!
New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Applications
 Carpenter: Needs to know the exact inclination of the roof for follow up work
like doing the isolation
  With the 360° inclination sensor you can measure inclinations accurate by
+/- 0.1° in all positions, like e.g. overhead
34
New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Applications
 Fire brigade: Needs to know the height at a building in order to get the right
ladder and position it correctly
  With the indirect height measurement you can easily and quickly make such
measurements. You will save time which might save lifes.
35
New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Applications
 Landscaper: Needs to know the height of a tree for checking the space before
cutting it down.

 Surveyor: Needs to add a building into a map he is taking up with a GPS
system.
  With measuring distance and angle at once and transferring the data via
Bluetooth® a surveyor can measure up points that are not accessible with a
GPS system (hidden points). The transfer with Bluetooth® will ensure that no
mistakes are done when writing down.
37
New Leica DISTO™ D8 – Applications
