If other messages appear, test result is not
saved.
In “A” case (see above), the following informa-
tion is saved: estimated capacity, calibration coefficient
(for current test), battery voltage, group name and num-
ber inside group, test date and time. If rather large noise
can make capacity estimation not reliable, the estimated
capacity is accompanied with “noise” message.
In “B” case, the appropriate message is saved
instead of estimated capacity.
If there are 200 test results saved in memory, a
message “memory full” is displayed. After this message,
saving is impossible. During next test, the number of
free cells in memory in the right bottom corner of the
screen is “0”. User should clean all memory (see sec-
tion 5.3.3) in order to start saving test results again.
