Measurements are taken in measuring mode. All functions
needed to take readings can be accessed from one menu.
●
Settings
(see

The device settings can be changed in settings mode. Infor-

cannot be taken in settings mode.
Settings are accessed via the menu in measuring mode. The
settings are access-protected by a PIN code.

soon you access the menu, alarms are no longer triggered.

Measuring mode
When switched on (see Section 3.1.3 on page 11
) the device
is in measuring mode. In measuring mode, the current measure-
ments are always displayed (see Fig. 5
). Depending on the ap
-
plication, the measurement will have to be saved or started and
then stopped (see Section 3.2.8 on page 21
).
