CLR
In the CLR (CLEAR) menu, some or all registrations can be deleted. If pressing the E key for approximately 10
sec’s, all tree data is deleted. If you make a short press, only the latest registered tree will be deleted.
INSP
Captured field data can be checked in the INSP (Inspection) menu. Use the arrow keys L and R to scroll
registrations. L=go back, R=go forward. Leave the INSP mode by pressing ESC.
COPY
In the COPY menu, captured registrations can be sent to a handheld via Radio or IR. Data is sent in the
following format:
;130
‘Number of trees (0..999), modula 1000.
1123
Species and diameter, see

PC
DigiCom.exe enables easy transfer of field data to PC. Captured data is exported to Excel as a tab-separated
text-file or as a Stand table in 1- or 2-cm classes with the corresponding sample trees and sample plot data.
Name of tree species, method for inventory and settings for data interpretation from the Digitech can be
defined in the program. Data from more than one caliper unit can be transferred and interpreted as one
object. You can also choose to perform a total measurement or a circular sample plot measurement.
The DigiCom program will interpret two 0-diameters following each other (dia<5mm) as a New Sample Plot,
and three 0-diameters as a New List (stand). This function enables to operator to capture and store Sample
plots and Stands in the Digitech caliper in timely manner.
Tree heights are usually captured and stored under Code=8. To use, first register the tree species and
diameter. Input the tree height as a diameter (dm) using code 8. Up to 3 different heights per individual object
(=tree) can be registered, normally stating the total height, the height of green crown and a third, optional
height.
If using the Vertex and/or Vertex laser instruments to transfer heights to the Digitech caliper, the height value
will always be stored under code=8. Up to 3 different heights per registration can be captured and stored, as
total height, green crown height and the third, optional height.
