Power-saving tip
If you wish to stop using the PicoLog CM3 in Ethernet mode, you can use
the
Ethernet S ettings utility to disable its Ethernet port. This reduces the
power consumption of the device when used in USB mode.
Ethernet and USB
Do not use the PicoLog CM3 in USB mode when it is being powered by
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE). This could cause the unit to radiate
electromagnetic energy outside the limits permitted by FCC and EU
regulations, and could also cause it to produce spurious measurements. It
will not, however, cause permanent damage to the unit.
