4. Operating Instructions

The KT 220-N is primarily controlled and configured via its dedicated software. The physical buttons on the device provide basic control over logging status.

• Starting a Measurement Campaign:
  1. Ensure the logger is configured via the software.
  2. Depending on the configured start mode (e.g., immediate, delayed, button press), the logger will begin recording data.
  3. If configured for button press start, press the 'OK' button (refer to Figure 2.1) to initiate logging.
• Stopping a Measurement Campaign:
  1. Logging can be stopped via the software or, if configured, by pressing and holding the 'OK' button.
  2. The logger will automatically stop when its memory is full or if a programmed stop time is reached.
