Introduction
DistoX is an electronic surveying device for cavers. It consists of a Leica Disto X310 or
E7400x (US version of the X310) distance meter with a built in replacement board. The board
extends the functionality of the Disto by a three axis electronic compass/clinometer and a
Bluetooth connection to enable wireless readout of the results. The three axis compass allows
measurements of arbitrary directions with arbitrary orientations of the device without
degradation of the precision.
Disto Functions
The Disto behaves similarly to the original X310. The
display shows the Azimuth in the first, the inclination in
the second, and the distance in the bottom line. It stores up
to 1000 measurements to be inspected later or transferred
over the Bluetooth connection.
Main Functions:
DIST: power on / start Laser / measure distance
CLR: cancel current operation, switch Laser off
REF ( ): change distance reference
TIMER: start timer (automatic measurement)
MEM ( ): show memory entries
SMART ( ): show extended measurement information (see below)
FUNC: show device information (see below)

Caution:
There is no automatic recognition of the position of the endpiece. Press the REF and FUNC
keys to switch between rear case and endpiece reference.
