Recording Measurement Results During Scanning

Perform the procedure in Figure 3-4 to record measurement results onto the memory card. The destination for the scanned data can be the memory card, printer, both the memory card and printer, or no destination, where the results are not saved, except in the Review array (last, maximum, and minimum scanned values) and in the 100-scan internal memory FIFO (First In First Out) log queue. (The internal memory log queue is accessed only through the computer interface. See Chapter4, "Computer Operations.")The mode for recording to the memory card or printer can be all scanned data, scanned data only when any scanned channel is in alarm, or single scans when an alarm transitions into or out of alarm.

Note

Measurement results recorded onto a memory card are extracted only by a PC running the Starter or Logger applications software. If printed results are desired as well as recording to the memory card, then "both" must be selected in the procedure below and a printer must be connected to the RS- 232 port. See Chapter5, Printer Operations, for more information.
