Each time a new reading is stored, the statistical values (mean value, max and min values) are re-
calculated and displayed.
An existing reading can be deleted by pressing the STORE button for two seconds.
An existing reading can be overwritten by selecting the corresponding position in the table and
performing a new measurement.
The table structure is maintained when the data is transferred to the PC so that the user can generate
a graphical representation in EXCEL.

Note: As a general rule of thumb from literature on this topic:
When ρ ≥ 12 kΩcm Corrosion is unlikely
When ρ = 8 to 12 kΩcm Corrosion is possible
When ρ ≤ 8 kΩcm Corrosion is fairly certain
