7.2 Measurement

The data logger is started via the menu item Start data logger, which leads to the data logger

screen. This screen shows the current measurement parameters, the measured value and the

data logger settings.

Depending on the start condition, the data logger starts automatically when the set start time has

been reached (if set) or the OK key must be pressed to start the data logger.

An active measurement is indicated by REC in the upper right corner of the screen as well as a

flashing red circle.

Depending on the set stop condition, the data logger stops either automatically after reaching the

stop time or after the desired duration or after pressing the OK key. Even if a time or duration

has been set as the stop condition, an ongoing measurement can always be stopped by pressing

the OK key.

Depending on the duration of the recording, make sure that the battery is sufficiently charged.

The device can also be operated with the USB charger so that measurements can be made over

a long period of time.

A successful measurement is confirmed by a corresponding message at the bottom of the screen.

At the same time, the start time is displayed for identification purposes. The data records can then

be read out from the meter and displayed with the PC software.

8 Route measurement (PCE-VT 3900 only)

With the help of the route measurement, a regular check is made possible by measuring

numerous measuring spots in a certain sequence. The configuration of a route must be done via

the PC software, which is described in detail in the corresponding manual.

A route has a tree structure: Thus, up to 100 machines can be assigned to a single route in the

first level and up to 100 measuring spots to each individual machine in the second level. In total,

up to 100 different routes can be configured. The names of the individual route elements can be

freely assigned in the PC software. For each measuring spot, up to 1000 measured values can

be saved to enable a trend display.
