Graph Functions

• To select a rectangular area on the graph to zoom in for detail:

There are two vertical lines on the graph (CURSOR A and CURSOR B). 

Time and value display at the top and right side of each cursor. Move 

the mouse cursor over cursor A or B and click to drag the cursor to the 

left or right. Directly below cursors A and B is a slider. Alternatively, click 

and drag the slider to move cursor A or B. The statistic is located under 

the slider. The statistic displays start time, sampling rate, data number, 

and maximum and minimum in the graph. The statistic also displays the 

maximum, minimum, and average between cursors A and B; these data 

will update automatically as cursor A or B is moved.

Datalogger

Connect the meter to a PC. Select datalogger from the main menu of  
the software or click 

from the tool bar to load the recorded data

If an error occurs, click datalogger again. After the data loads, the 
left side of the screen will show the number of data sets with detailed 
information for each data set, including start data, start time, recording 
rate and record numbers.

After loading the recorded data from the meter, the first data set will 

transfer to the graph and tabulate on the right side. Click any data set to 

graph that set. The right side of the screen displays the waveform graph 

and statistical information of the selected data set.
