a) Setting and Changing of the Automatic Interval Time

The interval time is set in chapter 7. Commissioning, item "Menu Pre-Setting" The factory-set interval time is
60 seconds.

b) Applying Data Logger

The data logger can be started from regular measuring mode. The pre-set interval time is applied for data recording.
Depending on pre-set interval time, two modes are available. Automatic and manual data recording. Manual data
recording stores the measured value only when a button is pushed. The logger data are retained in the memory even
after switching off.

Manual data recording

1
Proceed as follows to save a measured value:
• Switch on the meter (button "POWER") and wait for the initialisation phase to complete.
• Start the measurement.
• To save the current measured values push the button "REC". "DATA" appears in the display briefly, signalling stor-
age in the next free slot. Each push of a button saves a measured value.
Automatic data recording (interval time: 0.5 - 255 s)
2
Proceed as follows to activate the data logger:
• Switch on the meter (button "POWER") and wait for the initialisation phase to complete.
• Start the measurement.
• Keep the button "REC" (2) pushed for approx. 2 s to start data recording. "DATA" starts flashing permanently and
thus shows automatic data recording.
• A brief push of the button "REC" interrupts data recording. "DATA" goes out in the display.
When all memory slots are occupied (max. 1999 measured values), the data recording is ended. "DATA"
goes out in the display.
No further data can be recorded before the memory is deleted.

c) Reading Data Storage at the Meter

• Switch on the meter.
• Select the data view with the button "READ". The last slot recorded is displayed. Attention! If data recording is
running, the button "READ" will interrupt data recording.
• Every time the arrow buttons are pushed, you will choose the next-higher or next-lower memory slot.
• To end the data view push the button "READ" again.
