User questions & answers

Question:	Is the Bluetooth open standards ? Will it work with other Apps or the Android SDK, or is it proprietary and only communicates with Bosch
Answer:	That depends on the size of the corner. The angle finder I have is 8.55 inches long and just under 1.4 inches wide when closed, so the corner must be large enough for the tool to fit inside. The pivot end has a radius slightly smaller than half the with of the two straight edges. You can make a mockup of the tool using the dimensions I have given here an the angle you need and see if it fits the corner you want.
Question:	will this measure height outdoors? ie from the ground to the top of a tree
Answer:	I have had to do a lot of atypical miters and how I do this is to cut one miter angle and them measure this angle to determine the other angle on the miter. This has worked well, but can difficult if you do not have the space needed to expand the Gem Red. Overall this is a remarkable tool that is very accurate. But I needed to buy a smaller digital angle finder to work in smaller spaces. After working with the digital, would never go back to non digital.
Question:	can this be set to measure in inches only and round to the nearest 1/8 or
Answer:	The measurements are etched, not printed.
Question:	What is the difference between the glm 50 c and the glm 50 cx
Answer:	It will continue counting beyond 360 if you keep rotating it. It goes forever.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it easy to use? Is it something a novice coul use with minimal effort
Answer:	Yes
Question:	does this tool have 1/4 ' thread for mounting to a tri pod
Answer:	It's quite good there but the range becomes limited.
Question:	Does it only measure in inches
Answer:	You shove the string loop through one of the holes. I had to use a paper clip to pull it through. Then stick the rest through the loop and pull it tight.
Question:	does it measure in decimals? for instance, NOT 10 ft 6 inches but 11.3 ft
Answer:	I tried to use it for that once and it didn't work out to well. I ended up measuring the distance to the ceiling in order to get it straight. Ultimatelyy when the eye falls on it it compares it to a straight line next to it which is usually the ceiling, making the ceiling a great guide to keep pictures straight

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I set it to metric system units
Answer:	Not on the D2, 1/32" is the what it rounds to in fraction mode. The E7500i is the next model up with Bluetooth that can round to 1/32",1/16",1/8", or 1/4". The E7400x will also round to these fractions but it is not Bluetooth capable.
Question:	What’s the difference between 400 c and cl
Answer:	Don't know about the pole - but I don't see why not though with 72" pole, it has to be really sturdy (and doesn't bend).
Question:	Does it have the hole somewhere on it to twist it onto a tripod
Answer:	No, you can not use D2 to measure water, glass
Question:	Podemos ver a distancia donde esta el punto donde medimos
Answer:	The D2 can take measurements in feet, inches, and meters.
Question:	How do you change from 1/32 to 1/16 to be your smallest measuring unit on Bluetooth Disto D
Answer:	It seems to be very easy to use! I bought this for my husband.
Question:	Does it work with the hilti pd 72 extention pole
Answer:	sadly, no.
Question:	Can the D2 tell me how far down the water level is from the top of my well...for ex, actual well 250 ft deep; water is 20 - 40 ft deep in the well
Answer:	Thank you for your question. The GLM165-40 Laser Measurer measures in standard and metric units. You can choose from inches, meter, ft or ft/inches. For further assistance, contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Mon-Fri 7A-7P CST.

In the photo shown, the device calculates distance from the bottom of the device to the laser-point (on the wall, ceiling, etc.). You do NOT have to make any additional calculation. Also has some nice additional features such as: can calculate wall area by taking two consecutive measurements -- wall width & ceiling height (nice for calculating a paint area) OR building height where you can not directly measure (do a triangular measurement of distance from wall followed by (from the same spot) distance to top of building -- does the math for you. VERY nice tool!
