Data Storage

The instrument is equipped with an internal memory. In the internal memory, all data
is stored within jobs in the database. From the database, you can transfer or export
the data and convert it into a readable format (e.g. ASCII, HexML, GSI) by using the
transfer functionality.
For further information on data management and data transfer refer to "13 Data
Management".
