Pressing the softkey labeled Stop ends the peak recording session. The summary information in the display freezes and the softkeys change function to allow saving the collected data. Pressing the softkey labeled Close exits the peak recording session without saving the collected data. Note Turning the rotary switch before saving the peak recording data will cause all the accumulated data to be lost. To save peak screen data, the peak capture session must be ended by pressing the softkey labeled Stop. Next press the softkey labeled Save. A dialog box opens where the default saved name can be selected or another name assigned. Press the softkey labeled Save to store the Peak screen data. Peak capture can not be continued at this point. Press the softkey labeled Close to exit the Peak capture mode. Pressing the softkey labeled Restart while the peak recording session is running stops the session, discards all peak recorded data, and immediately starts a new peak record session. When viewing saved records, snapshot peak records look the same as a stopped peak records. Therefore, use the elapsed time (average value time stamp) to identify one record from another. To extend battery life during peak record, the Meter enters a battery-saver mode after a period of time set for the Auto Off feature. See the "Setting Backlight and Auto Off Timeouts" section for more information on the battery saver mode. True-rms Digital Multimeters Capturing Peak Values 19
