Extech EX542

The Extech EX542 offers wireless connectivity to your laptop or PC using a USB receiver with a range comparable to Bluetooth (10 m/33 ft.). The EX542 transmits real-time data for monitoring, trending, and analysis (using the included software) on one of two available frequencies (433 MHz). Now electrical professionals can monitor and data log readings at a safe distance from hazardous locations. Additionally, it is easier to perform remote tasks such as powering up a device from a control panel that is not nearby. From a time-saving perspective for laptop users, the EX542 permits a user to set up their laptop at a centralized location and then sequentially data log readings throughout a site without having to relocating the laptop. In addition to wireless data logging, the EX542 can log up to 9,999 readings internally and also read voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, frequency (with dual-range sensitivity for electrical and electronic work), duty cycle, continuity, diode testing, and even temperature using its Type K thermistor bead probe. Complete with double-molded test leads, USB wireless receiver, temperature probe, magnetic hanging strap, 9 V battery, and carrying case.
