Acquisition

The MAESTRO allows you to easily acquire data and save it on a USB key for post analysis and
processing. If you did not connect a USB key to the MAESTRO, the monitor will prompt an error
message and the acquisition option will not be available.

You have complete control over the data sampling. The key points to remember whether using a
joulemeter or wattmeter are:

Sample Rate

Controls how fast you collect data.

Eg. 10 points/second or 50% of the pulses

Total Duration

Controls how long the MAESTRO will
acquire data and/or do statistics.

Eg. 1 period, 5 hours or 1000 pulses
