• Recording session duration expiring. • Manually stopping the recording session. Setting up a Recording Session Before starting a recording session, setup the Meter for the measurements to be recorded. If needed, change the event threshold value (see the "Setting the Event Threshold Value section later in this manual). Press the softkey labeled Save to open the save menu. Using the cursor buttons, move the menu selector next to the menu item labeled Record and press the softkey labeled Record to open the configuration display. There are two variables in setting up a recording session: Recording session duration, and sample interval duration. Both variables affect the recording length and number of intervals recorded. These two variables may interact, in that setting one variable may adjust the other variable to fit the recording session within the available memory. The percentage of memory available at the beginning of a recording session is displayed below the duration and sample interval settings. Option values can be adjusted as follows: The sample interval can be set from one second to 99 minutes and 59 seconds. Recording session duration can be set from one minute to 99 days 23 hours 59 minutes. True-rms Digital Multimeters Recording Measurement Data Table 8.

Setting up a Recording Session
Before starting a recording session, setup the Meter for the
measurements to be recorded. If needed, change the event
threshold value (see the “Setting the Event Threshold Value
section later in this manual). Press the softkey labeled
Save
to
open the save menu. Using the cursor buttons, move the menu
selector next to the menu item labeled
Record
and press the
softkey labeled

to open the configuration display.
There are two variables in setting up a recording session:
Recording session duration, and sample interval duration. Both
variables affect the recording length and number of intervals
recorded. These two variables may interact, in that setting one
variable may adjust the other variable to fit the recording session
within the available memory. The percentage of memory
available at the beginning of a recording session is displayed
below the duration and sample interval settings. Option values
can be adjusted as follows:
The sample interval can be set from one second to 99 minutes
and 59 seconds. Recording session duration can be set from one
minute to 99 days 23 hours 59 minutes.
