Instruction Manual
Endless (circular memory)
This function is enabled by the user for continuous recording by the device. That is to say, earlier
values get overwritten when the memory is full. Without this setting, the device stops recording when
the memory is full.
From the following table, we can see what the approximate data volumes and recording times are:

Note:
The amout of memory available in the connected device (total), is displayed after Read Contents in
Reader and after Read Configuration in Writer / WL.
The difference in data volumes and recording times are due to the storage structure. Time intervals up
to and including 15 seconds can be saved along with the measured value, larger intervals need as
much extra storage space as a measured value.This structure enables data to be recorded at various
points in time, and not only continuously.
Device-Identity (for file name)
Display of the device description, which can be specified by clicking the menu command "Edit Device
Identity".
Comment
Entry field for any desired comment which will be written to the device after Write Configuration is
clicked.
Actual value
If the Online function is activated by clicking Online, this field displays the current value of the
selected channel. Updating takes place every second. In online mode, the recording status and
memory status (in the status bar) as well as the battery capacity display are updated. It is likewise
possible to display the current height to the desired length specification, taking into account the water
level configuration settings.
