instructions.

EuropeanandUSAnumericalformatsdiffer.ThedataontheSDcardcanbeformattedfor

eitherformat.ThemeterdefaultstoUSAmodewhereadecimalpointisusedtoseparate

unitsfromtenths,i.e.20.00.TheEuropeanformatusesacomma,i.e.20,00.Tochangethis

setting,refertotheSetupModesection.

ManualDatalogging

InthemanualmodetheuserpressestheLOGbuttontomanuallylogareadingontotheSDcard.

1. Setthesamplingrateto‘0’secondsasdescribedintheSetupModesection.

2. PressRECbuttontoturnonmanualrecordmode.TheRECiconwillappearintheupper

4. IftheSDcardisvalid,thedisplaywillshowtheDATALOGGERiconandthenthe

DATALOGGERandtheRECiconswillflasheachtimethatareadingisstored.

5. TopausethedataloggerpresstheLOGGERbuttonmomentarily.TheDATALOGGERandREC
