Leica Disto D5 R Laser Distance Meter

Leica Disto D5 R Laser Distance Meter

The Leica Disto D5 R Laser Distance Meter has been designed with distance measurements in outdoor areas in mind. With an in-built digital pointfinder, and the ability to use the product with the Leica DISTO Plan App, issues can be solved with ease and efficiency. Results can be easily documented, allowing the user to reference back to them at a later date. This allows for an error-free and target-orientated workflow.

The D5 R's target is always clearly visible on the display, with IPS technology ensuring that this is the case even if the laser dot is not able to be seen. This ensures accuracy of aiming, and therefore allows for precise results in the most challenging of environments. The measurement can be triggered with non-contact gestures, which means that the device does not have to be moved, and precise measurements can be guaranteed. The ability to trigger the D5 with hand movements is a new feature that has been implemented by Leica.

With various measurement modes available, such as Smart Horizontal Mode for measuring over obstacles, height tracking, profile or angle measurements ensure that every measurement task can be solved. In keyboard mode, the user can also connect the D5 to a computer, and send values through.

Various advanced measurement functions are available on the D5 R, which are as follows:

• The D5 R's features: Turn the D5 on, press the the ON/DIST button, and you will receive an accurate measurement. With a range of 200 metres, and an accuracy of ±1mm, the D5 R can accurately measure in a plethora of environments.
• Skecth Plan - The user can create a sketch on a smart phone or tablet, and assign distance measurements taken with the D1 to each line. The app has an 'auto-scale' function which adjusts the lines and scales the results
• Sketch on Photo - Document a job site condition with a mobile phone in the Disto Plan App, and then add the exisiting dimensions from the D1, along with a sketch and message that can be sent to people who need the information.

DISTO Plan Software

The DISTO Plan App can dramatically improve productivity by transferring measurements, aswell as accurate sketches and plans, via bluetooth. The user can visualise, measure, communicate and document a project with efficiency and ease.

The user can measure a rough floor plan, then add measurements, doors, windows and perspective. Then, they can take a photo, add dimensions, notes, dates and forward on to who needs it. Finally, they can communicate through difficult processes to speed up the process.
