Transferring results as a table
The CSV
fi
le always contains all the results saved in
your meter. Results already transferred at an earlier
date are transferred again.
The CSV
fi
le contains the following information:
Serial number:
the serial number of the meter
Download Date (DD.MM.YYYY), Download Time
(hh:mm):
the date and time when the meter trans-
ferred the results to the computer.
Date (DD.MM.YYYY), time (hh:mm), result and unit of
the results saved in the meter.
Flags added to the results, indicated by an “X”.
In the CSV
fi
le, the date is always displayed in the
format DD.MM.YYYY and the time always in the
24-hour time format (hh:mm). The time format set in
the meter has no in
fl
uence on the format of the date
and time in the CSV
fi
le.
The meter can transfer the results to a computer
without any special hardware or software. The only
prerequisite is that the computer has an infrared win-
dow according to the IrDA standard (Infrared Data
Association).
The results are transferred as a CSV
fi
le. CSV in this
case stands for
Comma Separated
Values
as the indi-
vidual results are separated by semicolons.
CSV
fi
les can be opened with a text editor or spread-
sheet program, for example.
Where you
fi
nd the CSV
fi
le on your computer depends
on the settings in your operating system for wireless
transmission of
fi
les via the infrared window.
