Chapter 4
Using Memory & Communications Features
Introduction
Chapter 4 shows you how to use memory and communication features available on the meters.
Note
Memory, Logging, and Save features apply to the 189 only.
Types of Memory
The meter has two types of memory data: saved readings and logged readings.
Saved Readings Memory
Saved readings include primary and secondary readings and functions, the time stamp, and display icons representing various features in effect.
Logged Readings Memory
The logging interval (Log Int) can be set using the meter or FlukeView Forms. You can view the average reading for each logging interval on the meter’s display. A scheduled logging interval may contain stable and unstable logged readings. Unstable logged readings represent unstable events as defined by the AutoHOLD function. See the Specifications.
To provide more detailed logging information, the meter also stores the high, low, and average value for each set of stable and unstable logged readings. You can only access these logged readings using FlukeView Forms.
Some of the logged readings can only be accessed using a PC running the FlukeView Forms software. FlukeView Forms displays the data in graphical or tabular form, prints, and stores the data.
