    Multiple Sensors Some applications require more than one sensor. New sensors can be added after an inspection has been created. Input parameters for each sensor can be configured individually. The device holds up to 30 inspections. Inspections may hold multiple sensors. Basically you can add as much sensors as you like to an existing inspection.
