Memory
Measured results together with all relevant parameters can be stored in the memory of
Meter and Station.
Step, Contact/Touch voltage, Potential and Current measurements can be stored in
the Meter.
Earth resistance measurements can be stored in the Station and then be
downloaded to the Meter.
Specific earth resistance measurements can be stored in the Station and then be
downloaded to the Meter.
Values of generated currents are automatically stored in the Station
’s logger.
8.1.1 Data structure
The instrument’s memory place is divided into 3 levels each containing 199 locations each.
The number of measurements that can be stored into one location is only limited by
available memory.
The
data structure field
describes the identity of the measurement (which object and
location).
The
measurement field
contains information about type and number of measurements
that belong to the selected structure element (object and locations).
This organization helps to handle with data in a simple and effective manner.
The main advantages of this system are:
Test results can be organized and grouped in a structured manner.
Data structure can be uploaded from the Metrel ES Manager to the Meter and with
synchronization also to the Station.
Simple browsing through structures and results.
Test reports can be created with no or little modifications after downloading results
to a PC.
