9.2 Saving Measured/Computed Data at Arbitrary
Times (Manual Sample)
This section explains how to save the instantaneous values of all measurement/
computation channels (excluding measurement channels set to skip and computation
channels set to Off) at arbitrary times.
Procedure
1. On the operation dislay, press the FUNC key.
A soft key menu is displayed at the bottom of the display.
2. Press the [Manual sample] soft key.
Note
When manual sample is executed, the instantaneous values of all channels (excluding
measurement channels set to skip and computation channels set to Off) are acquired to
the internal memory.
The first time manual sample is executed, a manual sampled data file is created on the
external storage medium. The data is appended to this file for each successive manual
sample operation.
Up to 50 sets of data can be acquired to the internal memory. When 50 is exceeded, the
data is overwritten from the oldest data.
The number of manual sample data points in the internal memory can be confirmed using
memory summary (see
section 1.16
).
For the data format of the manual sampled data, see
appendix 5, “Data Formats of ASCII
Files.”
You can assign the manual sample function to the USER key and save the data simply by
pressing a single key. For the procedure in assigning the function to the USER key, see
section 11.1
.
