recommend to format the SD card. See Advanced Settings section
of this manual for instructions.
3) If this is the rst time the meter is used you need to adjust the
clock. See Advanced Settings section of this manual for instruc-
tions.
4) Now you need to set the decimal format. The numerical data struc-
ture downloaded to the SD card is defaulted used the “.” as the
decimal, for example “20.6” “1000.53”. But in certain countries the
“,” is used as the decimal point, for example “20, 6” “1000,53”. See
Advanced Settings section of this manual for instructions on how
to change the Decimal Character.
Auto Datalogger (Set sampling time ≥1 second)
1) Start Datalogging; press the REC Button, and the “REC” symbol
will appear on the LCD screen, then press the Logger Button, the
“REC” symbol will ash while the measuring data and time informa-
