Using ExpoM - RF
3.1.
Starting a measurement
As soon as the device is turned on by means of the ON/OFF switch it starts to measure and log the
data using the last device settings (described in paragraph 5 / Figure 6). The device can be turned
on and off at any time. When ExpoM - RF is powered on, the new measurements are appended to
the existing log file preserving all previously recorded data. The internal memory can only be cleared
using the ExpoM - RF Utility on the PC (see chapter 5).
Important notice:
During the measurement the device should not be hold in the hand and not be
placed on a metallic surface. Both can influence the receiving characteristics of the built-in antennas
and therefore influence the measurement. If it is required to use it as a handheld device, please
contact the distributor for an additional calibration (additional calibration will cause additional
costs).
Important notice:
The measured data is saved to the internal memory every 6 samples. Before each
memory access it is temporarily held in a volatile memory that is erased when the device is turned
off. It is therefore recommended not to switch off the device for at least 6 additional measurements
after the required time end point.
