Exposure reserve
In each measurement, a value is recorded for the exposure reserve.
As the exposure reserve is always described by a fixed value range, the following information
has a fixed value:
n
Start of valid range: 0
n
End of valid range: 100
n
Number of intervals/bins: 20
This yields:
1 interval covers a value range of 5.
Example:
The object to be measured is outside the measurement range for 5 measurements. Therefore,
the sensor records an exposure reserve of 0. This results in the following distribution:
Bin Value range min. Value range max.
Number of
measurements
Bin 1 0 < 5 5
Bin 2 5 < 10 0
Bin 3 10 < 15 0
Bin 4 15 < 20 0
Bin 5 20 < 25 0
