indicate “REC: MIN”. If you wish, you can now delete this value by means of the Hold key (3). The

Memory 

5.5.1 

Preparation 

a) How to insert the SD memory card 
    Insert the SD card into the slot (9). Please make sure that you insert the SD card in the right direction 
    and carefully. The memory card should snap into place without using much force. 
b) How to format the SD card 
    If you use the SD card for the first time, it is necessary to format it. To do so, please refer to the 
    settings chapter below. 
c) How to set the clock 
    If you use the device for the first time, you must set the time. To do so, please refer to the settings 
    chapter below. 
d) How to set the decimal point 
    

In the factory setting, the decimal point is a point, e. g. “20.6.” or “1000.53”. However, in some 

    

countries it is more common to use a comma as the decimal point, e. g. “20,6” or “1000,53”. Therefore, 

    it might make sense to change the format of the decimal point. For information about this, check the 
    settings chapter below. 

5.5.2 

Automatic data logger function 

a) How to start the data logger 
    Press the REC key (4) once. The REC icon will be displayed. Press the logger key (6). The REC icon 
    will start flashing and the device saves the data to the SD card. 
    

Note:

 To find out how to set the sampling rate and switch the beeper on and off, check the settings 

    chapter below. 
b) How to halt the data logger 
    While the data logger is recording data, you can halt it by means of the logger key (6). In this case, the 
    REC icon will stop flashing. 
    

Note:

 If you press the logger key (6) again, recording will start again. 

c) How to stop the data logger permanently 
    While the data logger is recording data, you can end data logging by means of the REC key (4). To do 
    so, press and hold the REC key (4) for 2 seconds. The REC icon in the display will disappear.
