Collecting Data Manually (Single Point)

In Single Point mode, EasyData samples readings from the sensor for a 10
second period. When sampling is finished, the mean reading is calculated and
displayed. Each time a reading is collected, it is stored in memory for future use. If
you wish to clear previously collected data, select New from the File menu.
