In the delivery state, the directories are empty. Measurement settings are saved to one
of the above directories whenever the instrument is turned off, a probe is disconnected
or unplugged, or the user saves the current measurement settings as a setup with the
probe connected.
The last general device settings used (see
7.3 GENERAL SETTINGS on page 45
) are
also saved on the SD card when the device is switched off. Since the settings are
probe-independent, they are stored in the
Device Settings
directory. When the device
is switched on, these settings are loaded or – if the file is missing – the factory settings
are loaded.
Without a probe connected, only the probe-independent Last Device Settings are loaded.
The last measurement settings
Last Settings
are loaded only after a connected probe
has been detected.
After switching on the device, the last used device and measurement settings are
restored by loading the two settings files. If one of the files is not available, the factory
settings are loaded instead.
If a probe is unplugged while the device is running, the current measurement settings are
saved as
Last Settings
for this probe type. When reconnecting the same probe type, the
same
Last Settings
will be used. If another probe type is detected instead, the
Last Set-
tings
for this probe type will be loaded.
