Add-On function Identification

With the Add-On function Identification you can insert free identifications, labels, batch numbers or sample counters for measured values and much more into your protocol. The same information can also be shown on the display, as you can see at Info section.

Identifications can be used in many different ways as e.g. different types of articles are to be tested in different lots and different quantities/samples of the article per lot. The number is entered e.g. with a barcode reader, the lot number per keyboard and the number of the sample is counted automatically.

To change the content of an identifier you can place a soft key on the Action bar or use Auto entry what opens a text field automatically for each printout.
