Report Functions

Depending on the selected operating mode, 
the measured values and the result of each 
test can be transmitted to a PC via USB port 
for onward processing or stored to the inter-
nal device memory. The transmission or 
storage process of measured values is indi-
cated by all LEDs lighting briefly up from 
right to left.

Selection of Operating Mode

The corresponding PC analysis software 
programs have to be installed and started 
for the three different operating modes in 
order to receive data, see table above.
Press key „S“ (6) when switching on the 
instrument to set the requested operating 
mode. The following operating modes are 
shown in subsequent order:

„Transmission mode“, siehe chapter 6.1

„Permanent transmission“, see chapter 6.2

„Memory mode“, see chapter 6.3

The operating mode which is indicated when 
releasing key „S“ (6) is selected. This setting 
remains active even after switching off the 
instrument.

6.1 Transmission Mode (Transmission only 

while Program MINITEST is Active)

To transmit the current measured value, key 
„S“ must be pressed in operating mode 
„Transmission mode“ .

6.2 Permanent Transmission (Transmission 

only while Program MINITEST is Active)

If operating mode „Permanent transmission“ 
is activated, each measured value is trans-
mitted via the USB port.

6.3 Memory Mode (Read-Out only with

 a maximum of 2,047 

DUTs with 10 measured values per DUT can 
be stored. If an attempt is made to store 
more than 10 measured values for one DUT, 
the additional values are ignored and the red 
LED lights up briefly.

6.3.1 Activate Memory Menu

After selecting memory mode (see above) you 
have to set the rotary switch to position Gerä-
teselbsttest/Speichermenü 

(Self-test/Memory 

Menu)

. Activate the memory menu by pressing 

key „S“ (6). The following is shown on the LCD: 

** MEMORY MENU ** SELECTION -> SWITCH

You may now select the requested memory 
function via the rotary switch.

6.3.2 Selecting Memory Function

Key NUM – > Menu DUT NUM –

The number of the current memory location 
is reduced by one each time key „S“ (6) is 
pressed. The lowest possible value is „1“. 
The letter „D“ in front of the number signifies 
that data are already available for this mem-
ory location.

Key NUM + > Menu DUT NUM+

The number of the current memory location 
is increased by one each time key „S“ (6) is 
pressed. The highest possible value is 
„2,047“, i.e. a maximum of 2,047 DUTs can 
be tested. The letter „D“ in front of the num-
ber signifies that data are already available 
for this memory location.

Key DATA > Menu MEASURED VALUE NO.

In this switch position all measured values of 
a DUT are shown in a consecutive, numeri-
cal sequence in the order of their recording.
