4.5 Measurement Data Recording
The cable multimeter is capable of recording measurement data
using an adjustable sampling rate for long periods of time in the
form of measurement series. Data are stored to a battery-backed
memory module, and are retained even after the multimeter is
switched off. The system acquires measured values relative to
real-time.
Stored measured values can subsequently be read out with the
help of METRAwin 10 software. The only prerequisite is a PC which
is connected by means of an interface cable to the
USBX-
TRA bidirectional interface adapter, which is plugged onto
a cable multimeter. See also chapter 8, “Interface Operation”.
