Do I have to be in constant contact with my FloorPro® while in use?

Can I run my FloorPro® through water?

Your FloorPro® can hold a tremendous amount of data.  Up to 16 miles if necessary, depending on the number of runs.  We strongly recommend you download the data at the conclusion of each day. 

Can I measure 10 different jobs simultaneously?

Yes, your FloorPro® is very versatile and can simultaneously record multiple jobs. 

How long can I keep data stored in my FloorPro®?

Storing data in your FloorPro® for lengthy periods of time leaves the data susceptible to corruption. We recommend you regularly download the data and erase the memory.
