On the main screen Strike
M
for
More
Info
. The More Information screen allows
you to see more information about the
current meter you are on. On some
Handheld devices you can put in an SD
Card. The Windows CE operating system
will treat it as another folder. It will give
the folder a preset name. When the More
Info screen is opened, the program looks
for that card. If the card is in the unit then
a “Backup” button will appear at the
bottom of the screen. You can press the
Backup
button any time to copy the
reading file to the SD Card.
NOTE: Only one backup can be had at a
time. But this is a great way to ensure that
the data is safe in case the handheld unit is
damaged while reading.
Before turning off the Handheld, you should always exit the meter reading function by pressing
the
ESC
key on the keypad.
This completes the
Reading Meters
section.
