Setting up a Recording Session
Before starting a recording session, setup the Meter for the
measurements to be recorded. If needed, change the event
threshold value (see the “Setting the Event Threshold Value
section later in this manual). Press the softkey labeled Save to
open the save menu. Using the cursor buttons, move the menu
selector next to the menu item labeled Record and press the
softkey labeled Record to open the configuration display.
There are two variables in setting up a recording session:
Recording session duration, and sample interval duration. Both
variables affect the recording length and number of intervals
recorded. These two variables may interact, in that setting one
variable may adjust the other variable to fit the recording session
within the available memory. The percentage of memory
available at the beginning of a recording session is displayed
below the duration and sample interval settings. Option values
can be adjusted as follows:
The sample interval can be set from one second to 99 minutes
and 59 seconds. Recording session duration can be set from one
minute to 99 days 23 hours 59 minutes.
