10.3 NA X-TRA Power Pack (not included)
Use only the power pack from GMC-I Messtechnik GmbH in
combination with your instrument. This assures operator safety by
means of an extremely well insulated cable, and safe electrical
isolation (nominal secondary ratings: 5 V / 600 mA). Installed
batteries are disconnected electronically if the power pack is
used, and need not be removed from the instrument.
Note
Use of the power pack may result in an additional measuring
error on account of capacitive coupling. We therefore rec-
ommend battery operation for measuring capacitance and
AC quantities.
The specified technical data only apply for battery operation.

USB X-TRA Bidirectional Interface Adapter
This adapter makes it possible to connect STARLINE multimeters
which are equipped with a serial IR interface to the USB port at a
PC. The adapter allows for data transmission
between the multimeter and the PC.
METRAwin 10 PC Analysis Software
METRAwin 10 PC software is a multilingual, measurement data log-
ging program* for recording, visualizing, evaluating and
documenting measured values from METRA HIT multimeters.
Details on the system requirements are given in the installation
instructions of METRAwin 10/METRAwin 45.
* runs under any IBM compatible Windows operating system
