In this mode the WHT continually sends data to the controller.
The stream rate is fixed for the Orbit Solution, but can be adjusted on the Standalone Solution.
If a button is pressed in this mode the measurement being taken at the time the button is pressed is tagged.
This tagged data can be captured by the controller.
7.1.2.
Tagged data is sent each time the button is pressed
Note the button must be set to the correct state to ensure tagged readings are sent, this is the normal or default mode, but i t is possible to set the
buttons to other modes – see section below on Button allocation

MEASURMENT TYPES

The WHT can be set to measure in different modes, these are;
7.2.1.
The WHT transmits the absolute value of the measurement.
7.2.2.
The current measurement is forced to zero and all subsequent measurements are taken from this zero. Zero can be applied either from the WHT
buttons or from the controlling software. To use the WHT button, the button state must be first set up – see section below on Button allocation. Zero
can only be cleared from the controller.
