TAKE NOTE
measurement counter, your
time needs to be greater than
00:01:00.

• Interval Time
• This is the time each measurement interval will be. The
minimum permitted Interval Time is one minute; if a zero
value is entered, it will default to one minute.
• Interval Time Sync
• This feature ensures that all measurement records, after
the first, will begin at a time of day equal to a multiple of
the measurement time selected. For example, if the
interval time is five minutes and the measurement
begins at 08:14:00 (hh:mm:ss format), the first measure-
ment will be cut short such that the subsequent mea-
surements will begin at 08:15, 08:20, 08:25, etc.
• Daily Auto Store
• As your measurement is being made, your measurement
can be stopped and stored automatically throughout the
day. For example, you can have an interval time of ten
minutes, and store 24/day, so every hour a file will be
created, and the measurement will be reset, and each
file will contain six measurement intervals.
Timed Stop Mode
This mode, when Measurement History is enabled, has a feature not
included in the other run modes: the ability to automatically measure
and store a user-defined number of records, then stop. Subsequent
runs, each manually initiated, will produce the same number of stored
measurements.
In this example the time is 00:05:00 and
the measurement counter is 5. This
means that the measurement will run
for 5 minutes, five times, each time
creating a new record.
