Transferring and evaluating the measurements on a PC
To evaluate, document or process a set of measurements, the data must first be transferred to a PC
or laptop using the USB stick. As previously mentioned, the measurement data “.xml” file on the USB
stick can be read and processed by MSExcel or OpenOfficeCalc. Right-click the required file and
select “Open with” then choose from MSExcel or OpenOfficeCalc.
Important!
Transfer is only possible with MSExcel vers. 2002 or later.
The illustration below shows a set of measurements in MSExcel.

Deleting measurement sets from the device
If the USB stick is in the instrument, you can enter
MODE
->
DataLogger
->
Directory
to access the
files saved on the external memory. The remaining memory capacity of the USB stick
can also be
seen in percent. For example, the file shown above takes up 18
KB on a USB stick. With a capacity
of 512
MB, approx. 29.000 measurement sets of this type can be saved.
To delete a file, move the cursor with the arrow keys (
Up
/
Down
) onto the file you wish to remove and
select
ENTER
. The instrument issues a warning message. This function allows you to remove
measurement sets that are no longer needed on-site, which gives a clearer overview for later
evaluations.
