Setting comments
Comments for recording in a TM20 can be set. Up to 32 previously set comments can be
stored in the memory of a TM20 together with each measured value. For example, setting a
comment describing the action taken when the result of measurement is no good, such as
“Re-measure” or “Discard,” records the action that was performed consequently.
●
Setting comments in a new comment table
1.
From the File menu, choose Comment Table, then New.

2.

Abbreviated comments can be up to eight characters long, whereas there is no limit to the number of characters for

the abbreviated comments are replaced with the corresponding full names.
Rows can be added and inserted using commands on the shortcut menu which opens by a right-click, or by using the
keystrokes CTRL+R and CTRL+I.
