1586A Users Manual Auto Recording The Auto Recording feature automates the recording process. If Auto Recording is set to ON, the Product automatically records the scan data to file when the scan is started. If set to OFF, the user must manually push  to start recording. File Destination Scan data can be stored to internal memory or a USB drive. If set to Internal, scan data is saved to the internal nonvolatile memory. If set to USB, scan data is saved to the USB drive connected to the front-panel USB port. Note Scan data stored directly to the USB drive is not visible to the user through the Memory menu. However, the Memory menu does show the user how much memory is available on the USB drive. To manage the scan data files on the USB drive, connect the USB drive to a PC and open the folder named "Scan". See "Open and View Measurement Data on a PC" on page 4-20. Sample Rate The Sample Rate sets the speed the channels are scanned. When set to Fast, the Product scans each channel very quickly that lets the user monitor the channels for rapid measurements changes. As a result of the quicker scan speed, the Product is not given the time to fine tune the measurement and results in a loss of one digit of measurement resolution. For example, a temperature measurement would read 22.41 ºC with Slow and 22.4 ºC in Fast. Note Sample Rate should not be confused with Channel Delay and Rate of Change in the advanced channel options. See "About Scan Timing and Sampling" for more information. The three Sample Rates are: Fast, Medium, and Slow. Table 4-2 shows the sample speeds for the different input types and ranges. 4-8 MyFlukeStore Shop for Fluke products online at: www. .com 1.888.610.7664
