What is error 290 in Disto X4
Hi Noe,
Error 290 is a measuring module error and you should contact your dealer to resolve.
Tengo el disto D210 y me sale error 290. Que es? Puedo solucionarlo?
Hi Salvador, this error requires technical assistance and you should contact your dealer to troubleshoot.
I have a 224 error code on disto x4 model. The device does not work anymore, I would like to know the problem.
Thank you
Hi Davis,
The error 224 with the X4 is indicating a communication error, and the remedy is for the user to perform the reset function with the unit. If this does not allow the X4 to operate without getting the error the unit will need to be replaced.
Al intentar medir inclinación siempre sale error 156
Que está ocurriendo
En el A8 no significa inclinación transversal excesiva eso sería error 155 el 156 que me sale, no aparece en el manual
Hi Arturo, error 156 is Transverse tilt > 10°. If you are unable to resolve this code you will want to submit a support ticket on MyWorld so that a specialist can work through this with you.
What is error code 284 mean for this model Disto and can it be repaired? If so, how do I go about getting it repaired?

Error 255

You can also submit a ticket via MyWorld in order to speak with a technical representative who will have insight on the error code and can help with the reset.

Rien à faire pour mon Disto D5 L'erreur 255 est permanente. Que faire ?
Hi, i've some problem with my Disto D2, it continue to "beep" while is on, don't shut off, and don't take the measurement.
What can be?
I have the D5 model and recently it will not read distances and will only display 255 error please guide me
Older model. Error code i255. I stopped using it for about a year because of the error code. One day I put in new batteries and it worked. No batteries were in during non use. Used it for about 10 months and because batteries were low I replaced them. Now it again only shows i255. tried new batteries and cleaned the lens. no change.
Any recommendations?
