In order to simplify display and modification of parameters of a measuring device and make them uniform for different measuring devices, it is proposed to transfer from a memory on the measuring device to the operating unit, in addition to parameter values, representational data that defines the presentation of the parameter values on operating unit (5). An Internet browser, a word-processing program or a spreadsheet program is used at operating unit (5) to display and optionally modify the parameter values; the representational data is stored in the measuring device in a file with a format adapted to the program used.
