The MIT330 additionally offers the facility to save test results

to internal memory. Over 1000 result can be saved on site, Terminal Characteristics
and downloaded to a computer when convenient. Data
is stored in non-volatile memory, being retained when the
instrument is switched off or batteries are exhausted.
A Job reference number can be selected for a range of
results, allowing separate locations to be tested with the
same tester and easily separated when downloaded.
A memory bar graph acts as a ‘Fuel Gauge’ showing how
much memory has been used.
Test results are downloaded to CSV (Coma Separated
