Measurements to be logged are independent of measurements 

on the display, and must therefore be selected under DATA 

LOGGING 

 Measurements. 

Log Mode/Log Settings 

You can set Log Mode to Manual, Auto-save, or Cont-key.  

  Manual mode does not automatically save data, but instead 

prompts the user to save a sample. 

  In Auto-save mode, the user manually takes samples that are 

automatically logged.  

  In Cont-key mode, the user starts taking readings and logging 

by pressing the 

  

key. The instrument will continue taking 

measurements until the 

  

key is pressed again. 

  Auto-save and Cont-Key modes have the following additional 

Log Settings:
