The following applies: • Generally, all newer testo transmitters (as of 2007) are supported. • For each newly purchased Testo transmitter, a free software upgrade must be installed, containing the instrument drivers for all transmitters which are connectable at that time.
5 Parameterizing, adjusting and analyzing software (P2A software) Parameter file Parameter files are not tied to a specific individual transmitter and contain only parameter data/no history data. If you use various instruments of the same type, you can create parameter files once (e.g. by saving the appropriate instrument file as the parameter file) and transmit these onto the other instruments.
