    Now you are on my turf guy... I have been carrying a Note 2 for 9 mos now.

    It is a GREAT phone... this is operator error.

    Use the stylus to type, results are a lot better... try it. You will see.

    still trying to figure out how to upload pictures and videos. I must be stupid cuz I watched an upload video for YouTube and it was over my head I just couldn't understand it. I'll keep trying though I got plenty of pictures.

    Go to google play store and download an app called Tapatalk. That is what you will use to post here. When you are writing a post you will push the menu button and select insert picture. It will take you to your pic gallery in your phone and you can select the pics you want to post. Simple.

    Yeah, I thought about this before I bought it.

    Go to a phone store and play with a Samsung Note 2... WallyWorld has them if that is more convenient. Remarkable phone!

    And if you have big fingers and thumbs like I do... it takes a lot of mistakes out of texting and writing notes to yourself.

    yeah the touchscreen might seem funny, but in case you didn't know these things are mini tablets, they do as much as a computer practically. as for the stylus, I can use it quicker than I can type.

    the only thing Sman4does the 570 does not is calculate target superheat.

    the SMAN4 is good for what it can do, what if you want a fully functioning gage manifold, then the 570 is a better choice. I have said this several times and at the risk of sounding redundant, I will repeat: I own two AK900s, SMAN 4 and SMAN3.

    I also own Testo 557 and 579 and no but keep the ladies of each they are all fine pieces of equipment. in this case it is too which is on, however to say that s m A n 4 has more capabilities then Testo 570 is just plain wrong.
    I work in a commercial facility so, I'm not concerned about printing up information for customers. I am, however, interested in the Sman 4's capability to target proper superheat. But, correct me if I'm wrong, this wouldn't help much on TXV systems.

    When you reach the age of us seasoned techs (seasoned = experienced)... <grin>... your fingers will be strong and fat... Until then... you should be able to text/type without the stylus.

    I find the stylus easier to use. And then there are all the cool things one can do in the 'note' routines built into the phone. One of the things I like is: If I am on the phone with tech support (usually in another state), I can take a picture of what I am looking at, put an arrow to what I am talking about on the picture, write a note on the picture, attach the picture to a text with more notes, and send it to the guy on the tech line. He will have it in 5-10 seconds and we can look at it and figure out what to do. I have done this numerous times, it is one of the features which influenced my decision to get this phone.

    Just a side note: My second choice was the iphone 5.

    The only Testo that weighs refer is the 560.
    It hookes up to a testo scale with data cable.
    I believe the testo 570 easykool software can also keep track of refrigerant usage, you have the 570 but do you do you have the easykool software?i have some serious concerns about refrigerant management.


    Can the 570 and easykool software do the following:


    Service tech goes to wholesalers and purchases a bottle of refrigerant, enters the serial no of the bottle and initial content, purchase order number, date of purchase into the 570, I assume this info would automatically transfer to the easykool software when the 570 is connected to a PC running the easykool software.
    After each job, can the service tech enter the refrigerant amount used, the refrigerant type, serial number and customer into the 570, when the 570 is connected to the PC i assume it will automatically calculate refrigerant contents left in each bottle, and display a full detailed report, with absolutely zero errors.
    when the bottle is empty and returned to supplier, I assume the easykool software will create a detailed report showing where every single gram of refrigerant went to and it should also have alarms if there is refrigerant non accounted for, or customers have been overcharged by even so much as a single gram, I would also assume that the numbers can be modified, for example there is no 100% garuntee that all bottles do not have tiny leaks, or are filled correctly to the nearest single gram by the wholesaler, therfore service techs will need to be able to modify the numbers slightly in the easykool software.
