How to Use the Long-term Monitoring Mode

The WM2000 series can switch to the long-term monitoring mode suitable for long-term measurement by setting the standard software.

Long-term monitoring mode has the following features:

  • ●Even in poor reception, WM2000 will not go into offline mode and will continue to take measurements.
  • ●Battery replacement is possible during measurement (note that data cannot be acquired during battery replacement).
  • ●Data stored in the internal memory of the measurement unit due to poor reception is retransmitted with the latest data during measurement.
  • ●The data will be overwritten in chronological order from earliest to latest to continue measurement when the internal memory becomes full due to continued poor reception without re-transmission.
  • ●Measurement sampling time is 1 second or longer.
