11.5.8 Scanning configuration
In the following menu, reached by pressing
<►F>, the general conditions for measuring
point scans can be set in even greater detail.
11.5.8.1 Cycle with saving to memory activated
To ensure that measured values are saved and output to the interface on a
cyclic basis use the
data to the memory, is automatically activated after each reinitialization but can
be deactivated as and when required. Pressing

ing rate (10 mops) and continuous saving (see 11.5.8.4).
Enter the cycle in the format ´hh:mm:ss´ see 8.5:

11.5.8.2 Scanning mode
For automatic data logger operation and / or measured value scanning by the
computer there are 4 scan modes available :
Normal :
Internal cycle or cyclic scan by the computer
Sleep :
Internal cycle only, automatically switching off for long-term moni-
toring
Monitor :
Internal cycle, not disturbed by computer scanning activity
Fail-safe :
Cyclic scanning by the PC; after any failure, internal cycle re-
sumes
Scanning mode function :
Set scanning mode by pressing :
Sleep mode
For long-term monitoring involving large measuring cycles the device can also
be operated in sleep mode. In energy-saving sleep mode the measuring instru-
ment is completely switched off after each measuring point scan (please note
when using sensors with own power supply) and switched on again automatically
after the cycle expires ready for the next measuring point scan. In this way with
just one set of batteries or one battery recharge up to 15000 measuring point
scans can be performed; for a cycle lasting 10 minutes this represents a mea-
suring capability of over 100 days.
