3) Keep the vibration sensor motionless. Be sure there is no signal
being picked up.
4) Press and hold the Logger Button for at least 5 seconds. The
screen will display a zero value. The Zero Adjustment can be executed only when the measured value is less than 10 digits.

LCD Backlight back ON.
Datalogger
Preparation Before Executing the Datalogger Function:
1) Insert the optional SD card into the SD card socket.
2) Before you use an SD card with this meter for the rst time, it is
recommend to format the SD card. See Advanced Settings section
of this manual for instructions.
3) If this is the rst time the meter is used you need to adjust the
clock. See Advanced Settings section of this manual for instructions.
4) Now you need to set the decimal format. The numerical data structure downloaded to the SD card is defaulted used the “.” as the
decimal, for example “20.6” “1000.53”. But in certain countries the
“,” is used as the decimal point, for example “20,6” “1000,53”. See
Advanced Settings section of this manual for instructions on how
to change the Decimal Character.
Auto Datalogger (Set sampling time ≥1 second)
1) Start Datalogging; press the REC Button, and the “REC” symbol
will appear on the LCD screen, then press the Logger Button, the
“REC” symbol will ash while the measuring data and time informa-

tion is being saved in memory.
To set the sampling time, and to toggle the beeper sound on or off,
refer to the Advanced Settings section of this manual.
2) Pause the Datalogging; while Datalogging, if press the Logger Button once. While paused, the “REC” symbol will stop ashing. Press
the Logger Button again to resume Datalogging, and the “REC”
symbol will begin to ash again.
3) Stop Datalogging; while the Datalogger function is paused, press
the REC Button for 2 seconds. The “REC” symbol will disappear
indicating the Datalogging function has stopped.
Manual Datalogger (Set sampling time = 0 seconds)
1) Set sampling time is to 0 second; Press the REC Button, and the
“REC” symbol will appear on the LCD screen. Press the Logger
Button, and the “REC” symbol will ash once and one Beep will
sound, at the same time the measuring data along the time information will be saved in memory. The lower Display will show the
Position (record) number, which is saved as well.
2) To Change the Position Number; press the Down Button and the
lower position number will ash on the display. Press the Up or
Down Buttons to set the Position Number (1 to 99) to help identify
the measurement location. The lower Display will show P x (x = 1 to
99). After the position number is selected, press the Enter Button to
conrm.
3) Stop Datalogging; press the REC Button for 2 seconds, and the

During normal functions (not Datalogging), press the Sampling Button and
the lower LCD display will show the Sampling Time Information.
SD Card Data Structure
1) The rst time the SD card is used in the meter, the SD card will
generate a folder: VBA01
2) The rst time you use the Datalogger, in the folder VBA01, a new
le name VBA01001.XLS will be created. The Datalogger will use
this le until the Data has reached to 30,000 rows. The meter will
then will generate a new le with a subsequent number, for example VBA01002.XLS.
3) The folder VBA01 can hold 99.XLS les. When that number has
been reached, the meter will then will generate a new folder with
a subsequent number, for example VBA02. Max number of VBA-folders is 10.
Data Transfer from SD card to Computer (EXCEL Software)
1) After Datalogging, remove the SD card from the SD card slot.
2) Plug in the SD card into the Computer’s SD card slot or insert the
SD card into the optional SD card adapter and connect to your
Computer. Turn your computer on and a folder will appear on your
desktop representing you SD card.
3) Open “Microsoft EXCEL”. Download the EXCEL les from the SD
Card to the computer by opening up the SD folder and selecting
the desired EXCEL les, and drag-and-drop them onto your Computer. Open the les with EXCEL (File – Open).
4) The EXCEL le will have the following column headers in this order:
Place (Position Number), Date (Year/Month/Day), Time (in 24h
clock), Value, and Unit.
