The management of the internal recorder is important requirement to ensure that good
data management practices are followed with regard to the following aspects,
• safe keeping of measurement files,
• discarding unwanted measurement files,
• available recorder space,
• removing hidden or corrupt files.
The internal recorder should not be used as the main storage device for safe keeping of
measurement files. It is recommended that measurements are downloaded by the end
of each day and a copy of the measurement files are stored on either a computer or
USB flash drive.
