After the test data for Limit Set 2 has been stored the 

“Toggle Limit 

Sets” button will show that Limit Set 1 has been automatically 
reselected and the indicator bands will change accordingly. A figure 
“2” will appear in the toolbar, confirming that data is stored in data 
buffer 2. 

The data stored in the data buffers can be reviewed, printed or deleted 
via the 

The Print Preview Window 

(see 

8.7

). 

 
 

 

 

8.6  Storing Data in the Data Buffers

 

Current test readings to which a Limit Set has been applied may be 
temporarily stored in one of the two data buffers. This temporary storage 
allows the second Limit Set to be applied without the loss of the initial 
test results. Data to which Limit Set 1 is applied will be stored in buffer 1 
and data to which Limit Set 2 is applied will be stored in buffer 2. 

 

Note:

 

 

The following description assumes that the Free Measurement

 

Procedure is performed as outlined in 

8.5: „Free Measurement Test

 

Procedure‟ 

(i.e. the data to which Limit Set 1 has been applied is to be 

stored before Limit Set 2 is applied). Although this will be the usual 
procedure, it should be noted that it is possible to apply Limit Set 2 
before Limit Set 1 or to apply either Limit Set independently.

 

To store data in data buffer 1: 

• 

Apply Limit Set 1 using the 

“Toggle Limit Set” button . 

 

 

 

 

Figure 8-7 

Apply Limit Set 1 

 

• 

Take the Limit Set 1 gas measurements as outlined i

8.5: „Free 

Measurement Test 

Procedure‟

. 

• 

Press the “Freeze” toolbar button.
