Description
The EX850 ExView™ for Android app allows the user of an Extech Instruments EX850 clamp meter to remotely view and display readings from the meter on an Android phone or tablet up to 10m or 30 feet away.What is ExView?
The EX850 is equipped with ExView™, a Bluetooth-based technology developed by Extech and FLIR that transmits real-time readings from the clamp meter directly to an Android mobile device using this app and the device’s Bluetooth connection.
Functionality:
The app is used to discover available EX850s in ExView mode, connect to a desired meter, and receive readings transmitted via Bluetooth in realtime.
This includes the display of readings for the following functions: ACV, DCV, ACA, DCA, capacitance, resistance, frequency, diode test, Temperature (both contact, Type-K probe and non-contact, infrared functions). Function indicators highlight which measurement mode is selected on the meter. Additionally, Data Hold and Min/Max functions are also remotely displayed.
The ExView app can also display a scrolling log of several recent readings for quick reference and basic trending. This is enabled by clicking the measurement mode indicator/button along the bottom of the screen that is active and highlighted.
For example, if you are viewing Voltage, the "V" indicator is highlighted in the row at the bottom of the screen. Clicking the "V" button will open the reading log.
Remote Display Advantage:
This ExView app allows your EX850 clamp meter to function in a manner similar to clamp meter and digital multimeter (DMM) models currently available with a detachable wireless, remote display. The advantage of the app however is that the display on the clamp meter remains intact and continues to function, displaying readings locally in addition to the remote display on the Android mobile device. Additionally, no PC or wireless transmitter/receiver dongle or other accessory is required to view readings remotely.
Now, electrical professionals can monitor voltage, current, and other readings at a safe distance from hazardous locations. Additionally, it is easier to perform remote tasks such as powering up equipment from a control panel that is not nearby. For electricians who must show readings to a customer or manager, the remote display makes it easy to leave the clamp meter in place while showing and explaining findings from a safe location.
Add the convenience of anytime/anywhere remote viewing to your EX850 today!

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

1 ★Can't see text on droid turbo... Too big. Surprised to not see any log to file option, timestamps, or other cool stuff at all. I guess Bluetooth remains a gimmick. I'll try to write my own app I suppose. I'm using the ex845. Can't intsall the EX845 Meterlink app because it's not compatible with my phone. It seems to have fixed the font size bug. I speculate that these apps were developed as a marketing tool, and they don't want to spend any more money supporting them. Very disappointing. I suppose the end customers have no leverage to fix this bad corporate behavior except to leave bad reviews and hope the companies notice. If you're not going to support modern phones for a very basic app, at least publish the protocol so the community can write a better app. Why not open source the android app. I'll fix the bugs. Boo.
2 ★Samsung Note 3 cannot see full screen numbers too big
1 ★Samsung S4 active. Value not fully visible on screen, no min/max values or anything else, no possibility to select what you want to measure, selected area (volts, amps, temperature etc) change continuously by itself.
