Prevent data log overflow in interval mode
When measurements are taken at specified intervals (
Table 4
), each
result is automatically stored. The meter can store up to 500 data
records. When 500 records have been stored, data is replaced on a first-
in, first-out basis. To prevent loss of data, connect the meter to a
PC/printer/USB storage device.
Note: Stop interval measurements before changes are made to a method or to
meter settings.
