®

Memory

240,000 measurement (512KB)

The recorded data is stored in non-volatile memory and will be

retained even if the battery is low or removed.

Communication

USB 2.0 optically isolated

115200 bps

Power Source**

2x1.5V AA-cell alkaline batteries

Battery Life

100 hours to > 45 days

(dependent on sample rate and recording length)

*This unique recording mode provides the opportunity to continuously record over long periods 

of time by reducing the stored sample resolution of the oldest data and maintaining matching 

resolution for the newest data. Each time the memory fills up using XRM™, every other of the 

oldest stored samples is discarded making room for newer samples. This process continues 

until the recording is manually stopped.
**A memory backup capacitor provides backup power while the batteries are being changed. 

This  backup  capacitor  will  maintain  the  instrument  for  up  to  10  seconds  without  batteries 

installed. After 10 seconds the date, time and configuration will need to be reset (no data will 

be lost). If the unit is connected to DataView

®

 via a PC, the battery life is 100 hours regardless 

of the storage rate.
