Leica Disto D8 AutoCAD 2013 plugin

Has anyone had any success getting the latest Leica DISTO Transfer PC software (v3.80)to install its plugin with AutoCAD 2013?

 

I've followed all the instructions in the Leica guide.

 

I get it to connect to my PC and it works to transmit measurements to Excel, but the "LEICADISTO" command which is supposed to start the plugin in AutoCAD is not recognised. It didn't seem to work with ACAD2012, either.

 

The Leica guide simply says that it works with ACAD2004+.

 

I'm wondering if Leica just needs to update their software to recognise ACAD 2013.

Hi, I just recently bought the new disto D810 touch which replaced the D8. My problem now is that it is only compatible with windows 8 and Bluetooth 4.0 or higher. Needless to say I need to upgrade my windows version, because I really want to keep my D810. It is making me very nervous that I am not seeing any postings or tutorials on syncing the D810 with autocad. Leica no longer lists an autocad pluggin as part of the features in this new model. Before I go out and invest further $$$ on a new tablet with windows 8, can anyone tell me if the new D810 touch syncs with autocad 2013??

Atomdrift & cesan1975 get on the phone and ring your Leica dealer. Genarally they are pretty helpfull. One thing though ex Topcon employee there is different versions of software provided around the world, check the American market its the biggest.
