Abstract
An exemplary method for recording measurements derived from a probe includes receiving a probe identification from a probe, receiving a start instruction, receiving at least one signal from the probe after receiving the start instruction, and converting the at least one signal into a reading based on at least the probe identification. An exemplary system for measuring an attribute includes a controller unit having a processor, a memory connected to the processor, a display connected to the processor, a control interface connected to the processor, and a connection module connected to the processor; and at least one probe, each probe having a sensor, elements to provide identification of the type of probe, and a connector for connecting to a connection module of the controller unit. A further exemplary controller unit includes software for performing the exemplary method.
