2.1.3: V-Switch
TM
Key Technology
The Shark® 200 meter is equipped with V-Switch
TM
key technology, a virtual
firmware-based switch that lets you enable meter features through software
communication. V-Switch
TM
key technology allows meter upgrades after installation
without removal from service.

TM
key upgrades are as follows:
• V-Switch™ key 1 (V-1): Multifunction measurement
• V-Switch™ key 2 (V-2): Multifunction measurement and 2 MegaBytes* for data
logging
• V-Switch™ key 3 (V-3): Multifunction measurement with harmonics and 2 Mega-
Bytes* for data logging
• V-Switch™ key 4 (V-4): Multifunction measurement with harmonics, 2 MegaBytes*
for data logging, and limit and control functions
• V-Switch™ key 5 (V-5): Multifunction measurement with harmonics, 3 MegaBytes*
for data logging, limit and control functions, and 64 samples per cycle waveform
recorder
• V-Switch™ key 6 (V-6): Multifunction measurement with harmonics, 4 MegaBytes*
for data logging, limit and control functions, and 512 samples per cycle waveform
recorder
*
Because the memory is flash-based rather than NVRAM (non-volatile random-access
memory), some sectors are reserved for overhead, erase procedures, and spare sec-
tors for long-term wear reduction.
