Delete an existing batch

By Selecting 

Batch/Edit Batch/Delete Batch

 the user will find a list of 

all the batches that have been created, together with the number of 
readings stored in each batch.
To delete a particular batch use the up and down arrow softkeys and 
select the appropriate batch. 
After  a  request  for  confirmation,  the  gauge  will  delete  the  selected 
batch and return the gauge to the list of batches. 
To delete another batch, repeat the procedure, to return the gauge 
back to the previous menu, press the

 radio button, users can pre-define the 

number of readings that are to be stored into the batch using the up 
and down arrow softkeys.

Once the batch has been opened and readings are being taken, the 
Elcometer  130  will  notify  the  user  when  the  fixed  batch  size  is 
complete and ask if another batch is to be opened.
If  the  user  selects  No,  then  the  gauge  closes  the  batch  and  exits 
batching  -  returning  the  gauge  to  the  Immediate  mode.  If  the  user 
selects Yes, then the gauge automatically:
