Can you compare data from the Mexameter® MX 16 with those of the Mexameter® MX 18?
Mexameter MDDNo, not directly. The output of the MX 18 is more sensitive to show color changes than the MX 16 was, thus the results will be shown on a scale of values from 0-999 which differs totally from the scale of the MX 16. However, on request a formula to change "old" data into new is available.
