After the measurement
When you have finished all tests, turn off the heating element by using the key switch. After that,
turn off the device with the main switch and disconnect the power plug. Open the door to speed
up the vapour release.
Once the heating element and the water have cooled down, you can remove the water tank and
empty it. To do so, loosen the black vertical adjustment screw of the heating element and move
the heating element upwards until it is outside the tank. Now you can pull out the water tank to
the right side of the vapour resistance test chamber.

Data transfer
The display unit stores the temperature and the timer count on a regular basis. The data can be
transferred via the USB interface.
To do so, use a USB pen drive with the following properties:
The power consumption of the USB pen drive should not be higher than 100 mA. Pen
drives with a high memory capacity might not be supported. If this is the case, you
can use an USB hub with external power supply. However, we recommend using
USB pen drives with a memory capacity of 2 GB.
The USB pen drive must be formatted in FAT file system (not FAT32!!).
To transfer the data to the USB pen drive, follow these steps:
1.
Connect the USB pen drive to the USB interface of the display unit.
2.
Touch
the display and select “Menu”.
3.
Select “File management”.
4.
Select “Logging files”.
5.
Below “File selection”, you can see the different measuring groups. If there are any
readings stored in the measuring group, a “click to select” button is shown right next
to it. Press the button to select the measuring group you wish to transfer.
6.
A new screen appears where you can see all readings which are stored in the
selected measuring group. You can select the readings you want to be transferred by
selecting them manually or by using the buttons on the bottom left side which select
or de-select all readings of the group. If a reading is selected, its checkbox is
activated. To confirm the selection, press the check mark button on the bottom right.
7.
Now you are back in the “Logging files” screen. Once you have selected the desired
measuring groups and rea
dings, press the “Export selected files” button to transfer
the data to the USB stick.
8.
If you want to delete the selected files,
press the “Delete selected files” button.
