Leica DISTO™ Plan App: How to measure 3D?

[@davecurtis9189]

Using plan with X6 and DST 360-X Adapter i Have noticed in 3d capture there are no photos saved, but using P2P there are - should this be the case ? also is the point finder camera likely to be upgraded, picture is quite grainy, low resolution and focus is not good, the bleed out of the red laser glow almost negates the use of the zoom lens, I'm just surprised that such a low grade camera / lens has been used considering the advancements in phone cameras. My practice is always site photos and this would have been very handy but at very low pixel photos its not viable

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Hello, images from measurements are saved provided the camera is ON. Pictures from P2P / P2P levelled measurements can be previewed on the DISTO. To see the pictures from 3D Data Capturing measurements, you need to connect the DISTO to the computer. You will also be able to see other data (csv, DXF). Thank you for your feedback on the camera quality. We understand how important clear images are for your work, and we’ll share your input with our development team for future improvements. As the devices have just launched, any upgrades will be considered in future updates.

@@LeicaGeosystemsCH HI Thanks for your response what I should have clarified is using 3D capture and P2P with the Disto plan app specifically, now that I've used p2p also using the Plan app. It appears that using the plan app and / or the use of the register button on the tablet doesn't trigger the camera as I've connected the X6 to my lap top after an extensive room measure and can download measure data but no Jpg photos are stored

[@parantithema]

One more question, is there a plan to release Disto Plan app for windows? There are many of us out there willing to use their disto series gadgets with Surface Go tablets (or other windows tablets).

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Thanks for the feedback. Currently there are no plans to release DISTO Plan App for Windows in the foreseeable future.

DISTO transfer

[@АлексейСоболевский-ъ3о]

When working in the Disto transfer plugin, the image from the s910 rangefinder is saved to a folder on your computer. And where is this image stored when working with the DISTO Plan application? Thank you.

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

The images taken with the S910 are not saved when working with the DISTO Plan App. This is only possible with DISTO transfer.

[@lisah5659]

Where can you find that tablet holder? That would be incredibly helpful in the field. I can't seem to get my search terms correct to find one.

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Hi, we are using the iKlip 3. See the link below: www.ikmultimedia.com/products/iklip3/

[@davecurtis9189]

got mine from Amazon

[@TabithaMcMinniman]

Question. When transferring point to point data (dxf) does it have to be into autocad software or can this data be transferred into applications that also accept dxf files (for example chief architect)?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Direct data transfer with the DISTO transfer plugin is only possible with AutoCAD and BricsCAD, which are officially supported. If the DXF data is downloaded from DISTO after the DXF measurement, then it should also be possible to open it in other programs that support dxf files

I want to buy a disto for measuring pipes, I need to know height and references to walls, what model disto is the best option for this job?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Hi, we would recommend a DISTO with Point-to-Point technology. With these you can measure heights and indirect distances very accurately. See the links below: Leica DISTO X3 P2P Package shop.leica-geosystems.com/global/measurement-tools/disto/leica-disto-x3?srsltid=AfmBOor7attK1HktUaljJCsnqquccjXStqz1-YqRP4xILpgb93r7Slwj Leica DISTO X6 P2P Package shop.leica-geosystems.com/global/measurement-tools/disto/leica-disto-x6-p2p-package/buy

[@king0vdarkness]

can i use any tripod with this? and is there an alternative to the p2p adapter?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Hi, you can use any tripod as long as it has a ¼" tripod thread. As for the adapter, the DST 360 is the only option as it contains all the necessary electronics to allow P2P measurement.

[@TheRolldone]

can we convert to 3d obj file and display on web browser?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry but this is not possible.

[@rianarchitektur819]

Endlich! Dieses Update in der App macht die vieles so viel einfacher! Wir hatten uns unter anderem die X4 angeschafft, weil wir dachten, dass durch die P2P-Messung die 3D-Messung möglich wäre. Vor dem Udpate waren wir sehr ernüchtert, dass es "nur" die Grundriss- und Fassadenmessung gab (was wir auch schon gerne nutzen). Durch die 3D-Messung lohnt sich die X4 umso mehr! Dachschrägen sind nun gar kein Problem. P.S.: Die Tablet-Halterung fürs Stativ sieht gut aus. Welches Produkt ist das?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Vielen Dank für das positive Feedback! Halterungen gibt es sehr viele, wie es auch viele Tablet- und Smartphonegrössen gibt. Wir haben für das Video ein Produkt mit dem Namen «iKlip» verwendet.

[@АлексейСоболевский-ъ3о]

Good evening! Where are photos of measured points saved when working with the Leica S910 on?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Pictures from DXF data capture measurements are saved in the device’s memory and can be seen when the DISTO is plugged to the computer in the folder DXF Exports. Screenshots and photos can be displayed either in the device itself or after plugging to the computer in the folder Screenshots and Pictures.

[@DGDJI]

What's the accuracy of this please? Looking for something like this to survey existing conservatories but tolerances are tight

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Accuracy with an adapter is typically 10 mm at 10 meters.

[@yoshihitodoi7373]

Is this tablet holder a product of your company? Also, can I store it in the case with the holder attached? One more thing: Can you hold the Apple Pencil with it attached?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

This holder is not a product of our company. In this video we are using iKlip holder, see the link below. Given its size, it is not possible to place this holder in a case, assuming all items stay there as well. We have no experience with the Apple Pencil, but we suspect it should be possible. www.ikmultimedia.com/products/iklip3/#top

[@domi25368]

Dear LEICA Team, this is a great function. I am using an S910 and as far as I understand I have to use the "Send Measurement" button in the device to transfer the point to my LEICA Disco App on iOS. I also habe the button on the left side which is showing a photo, but no photo is transferred to my iPhone. For what this button can be used?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

This button sends a photo from the DISTO to another connected device. However, this only works with DISTO transfer, as the DISTO Plan app does not support the transfer of images.

[@paokpig]

which models can do this ?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

Hi, Measure 3D is compatible with DISTO S910, DISTO X3/X4 on DST 360 and DISTO X6 on DST 360-X.

[@parantithema]

Hi, which tablet holder you are using on this video to mount to the tripod?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

There are many mounts, just as there are many sizes of tablets and smartphones. We used a product called "iKlip" for the video.

[@jean-baptistedoussou4531]

?n plein jour et à l'exterieur et au loin ,!comment fait on pour voir le point du laser ?? ? Merci et bonne journée à vous

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

For measurements outdoors and over long distances, it is advisable to equip our products with a camera and a Pointfinder. These products are the DISTO D5 and X6. With the Pointfinder you can easily measure distances of well over 100 meters. Please follow the link below to our website where you will find all the necessary information: shop.leica-geosystems.com/fr/fr-FR/measurement-tools/disto/leica-disto-overview

[@АлексейСоболевский-ъ3о]

How to continue measuring when changing the position of the Leica S910?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

This is currently not possible, but we are working on this possibility.

[@cristianmaceri705]

Hurry please, this would really be a very important function@@LeicaGeosystemsCH

[@geralitro]

I'm sorry I have a question which model is more new? S910? X3? X4?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

X3 and X4 is newer. But check out this side for finding the right DISTO for your application: leica-geosystems.com/de-de/products/disto-and-leica-lino/product-selector-disto/product-finder

[@geralitro]

​@@LeicaGeosystemsCHIm sorry im a little bit confused I'm really interested to buy the newest versión of DISTO but I don't understand really well so i want to buy it for outdoor and indoor projects I was looking in amazon but the s910 P2P looks like a newest versión tan X4 and also is more expensive. Which are the differences between both systems? Why the X4 is more cheapest?

[@LeicaGeosystemsCH]

​@@geralitro X3 and X4 were launched in 2018, S910 was launched in 2015. X3/X4 are indeed our newest products. However, from the functional point of view, S910 is our most advanced one with up to 300 m of range, in-built P2P functionality and WLAN connectivity.

Ich habe ein Gerät in der Schweiz gekauft. Wir haben 4 Landessprachen. Englisch gehört nicht dazu. Sie können nicht erwarten, dass jeder das Glück hat Englisch zu lernen. Bei fast 100 Mio. deutschsprachigen Einwohnern in Europa, sollte eine deutschsprachige Anleitung machbar sein. Oder?
