To store data automatically, the AUTO STORE function must be enabled. No
beep is given in AUTO STORE mode.

data for that test. Only the peak force and peak time for each test are stored into
the memory. The MMT memory is limited to 52 tests. If the memory reaches
capacity, a warning screen is displayed every time data storage is attempted.
Stored data must be emptied by deleting data using the clear all data registers
procedure, turning off the auto store feature, or by downloading the data to the
data transfer box.
To activate the Auto-Store function:

download.
Note: If a connection can not be established, an error is given along with two

the checksum back to the MMT. Once the MMT receives the correct checksum,
the data registers are cleared. If the correct checksum is not received, the error
message is given and the data is not cleared.
