6.1. rECordING of tHE MEASUrEMENtS
It is possible to record each insulation measurement once it is over. It is not possible to record the voltage measurements.
These results are recorded at addresses identified by an object number (OBJ) and a test number (TEST).
An object can contain 99 tests. An object can therefore represent a machine or an installation on which a certain number of
measurements will be made.
Press the MEM key.

The instrument proposes recording the result at the first available
location in memory. It is possible to modify the numbers proposed
using the
and
keys.
Press the MEM key again to confirm the

The instrument then asks you if you want to Store Samples with
the measurement.
If you do this, you can then display the curve of the measurement by a single press on the GRAPH key (see §4.5)
If this is not useful, set Store Samples to Off.
If you set Store Samples to Yes, you can set the Sample Time using the
and
keys.
The default sampling time is the minimum, meaning that all samples acquired during the measurement are recorded.
The sampling time can be set to Auto (automatic), in which case the instrument itself determines the samples necessary for
the plotting of the curve while using the least possible space in memory. If the measurement does not vary, it will take only
one value, giving a perfectly flat curve.
this value is recommended to optimize memory use.
The sampling time can also be programmed, between 10 minutes and one second.
The longer the measurement, the longer the sampling time can be. For example, on a measurement lasting 10 minutes,
the sampling time can be 10 seconds, giving 60 points for the curve, which is sufficient.
Again, the more stable the measurement, the longer the sampling time can be. And the more unstable the measurement,
the shorter the sampling time must be in order to correctly display variations of the insulation resistance.
