Alternative stop modes
Automatic Stop (default setting)
The device will stop automatically when the maximum number of measured values in the data memory is reached and no manual stop is performed beforehand.
This stop mode works in addition to the manual stop. Software Stop (optional)
This setting can be made in the tempbase 2 software. (see STEP 1)
The stop is triggered automatically by connecting the logger to the PC and opening the software.
A manual stop is not possible in this configuration.
