takes
and
stores
a
reading

a
user
‐
specified
sampling
rate
onto
an
SD
memory
card.
The
meter
defaults
to
a
sampling
rate
of
two
seconds.
To
change
the

The
meter
will

data.
If
a

again
with
a

will
show
the
DATALOGGER
icon
and
then
the
DATALOGGER

7.
When
an
SD
card
is
used
for
the
first
time
a
folder
is
created
on
the
card
and
named
TMD01
.
Up
to
99
spreadsheet
documents
(each
with
30,000
readings)
can
be
stored
in
this
folder.
8.
When
datalogging
begins
a
new
spreadsheet
document
named
TMD01001.xls
is
created
on
the
SD
card
in
the
TMD01
folder.
The
data
recorded
will
be
placed
in
the
TMD01001.xls
document
until
30,000
readings
are
reached.
9.
If
the
measurement
session
exceeds
30,000
readings,
a
new
document
will
be
created
(TMD01002.xls)
where
another
30,000
readings
can
be
stored.
This
method
continues
for
up
to
99
documents,
after
which
another
folder
is
created
(TMD02)
where
another
99
spreadsheet
documents
can
be
stored.
This
process
continues
in
this
same
fashion
with
folders
TMD03
through
TMD10
(last
allowable
folder).
