 PC software is a multilingual, measure-
ment data logging program for recording, visualizing and documen-
ting measured values of multimeters of the 
METRAHIT 
e-series.
Communication between the PC and the measuring instrument(s) 
is established via available interface adapters.
Depending upon device type, one or several of the following ope-
rating modes are possible:
• Device Configuration
Remote configuration and querying of device-specific functions 
and parameters, for example measuring function, measuring 
range and memory parameters. Frequently used device settings 
can be saved to configuration files for easy recall.
• Online Recording of Measurement Data
Read-in, display and recording of momentarily measured data 
from the interconnected device. 
– Number of 
measuring channels up to10
– Start recording
manual, triggered by measured value, time
triggered
– Recording mode > time controlled
with sampling interval of 0.05 s* ... 1 s ... 
60 min
> manually controlled
> measured value controlled in event
of exceeded limit/delta value
– Recording duration max. 10 million intervals
*  Depending upon device type, measuring function, number of measuring channels 
and communication (e.g. via modem), sample intervals of less than 1 s cannot be 
used.
• Reading Out and Visualizing Stored Data
If supported by the device: read-in and display of offline data 
recorded to device memory.
For purposes of analysis, data recorded online or read in from the 
device’s memory can be displayed in various formats:
