13 MEASUREMENT - RECORDING YOUR READINGS
Your gauge is equipped with a data logger - an essential feature for improving the efficiency of
product inspection. With a data file open, all your readings values are saved into the file, therefore
eliminating the need to manually record measurements during the inspection process. Once all the
measurements have been taken, the gauge can then be connected to a computer or serial printer
to save and print the results of the inspection.
