This article explains how to setup a Disto D810 laser to send measurements into Solatech.  This article assumes that the user already has Laser Measure Quick Entry setup in the Solatech Window Covering Software.  Please contact Solatech Support if laser measuring has not been set up. 


Instructions

  • Navigate to the Bluetooth settings on your computer and select Add a Bluetooth Device
  • When the Leica Disto is found, click on the Pair button.
  • When the pairing is complete, you will hear a beep, indicating that the laser is now connected
  • In the Solatech Window Covering Software, place your cursor in the width field (either in Order Entry or in Laser Measure Quick Entry)
  • On the laser, enter Disto mode and take a measurement
  • To send the measurement, press the Bluetooth arrow shown on the laser display


  • The cursor will advance to the height field
