7.1.7. SAMPLE PERIOD AND REPORT PERIOD
The DAS defines two principal time periods by which sample readings are taken and
permanently recorded: Sample and Report periods.
SAMPLE PERIOD: Determines how often DAS temporarily records a sample
reading of the parameter in volatile memory. SAMPLE PERIOD is only used when
the DAS parameter’s sample mode is set for AVG, SDEV, MIN or MAX.
The SAMPLE PERIOD is set to one minute by default and generally cannot be
accessed from the standard DAS front panel menu, but is available via the
instrument’s communication ports by using APICOM or the analyzer’s standard
serial data protocol.
REPORT PERIOD: Sets how often the sample readings stored in volatile memory
are processed, (e.g. average, minimum or maximum are calculated) and the results
stored permanently in the instrument’s Disk-on-Module as well as transmitted via the
analyzer’s communication ports. The Report Period may be set from the front
panel. If the INST sample mode is selected the instrument stores and reports an
instantaneous reading of the selected parameter at the end of the chosen report
period.
