The program connects to Leica DISTO™ devices using a Bluetooth interface (current models are Leica DISTO™ D3aBT, Leica DISTO™ D330i and Leica DISTO™ D8). From your Android device, you can remotely trigger measurements and /or you can transfer the measurement data from the Leica DISTO™ into the Clipboard. Once they are in the Clipboard, they can be inserted into any application.

Now you can also transfer your measurements directly into an Excel file. You can either generate this file on the Android device itself or you can download and open any Excel file previously used on another computer beforehand. The most common formulas from Excel are supported.
You are transfering the measurements in the currently active Excel cell. For navigation you can use the touchscreen of your Android device or the navigation keys on your Leica DISTO™.

The following Leica DISTO™ devices are supported:
