ment via Bluetooth
®

• Create new sequences
• Add and delete test steps
• Copy and paste test steps
• Change the order of test steps
• Edit comments
• Import/export of sequences as TXT files
Note
Observe the maximum possible number of test
sequences and test steps per instrument!
Standard: 1 sequence with up to 10 steps for the
METRAHIT IM XTRA BT and the METRAHIT IM E-DRIVE
BT, none for the METRAHIT IM TECH BT.
With Sequence Functions Expert: 16 sequences with up to
63 test steps.
Note
Sequences with the identical names are possible!
