(1) Used when you want process variables to represent the gas in the measurement chamber.
(2) Used when you want process variables to represent the gas at the location of the temperature probe.
(3) Required only if you plan to use the calculated mass flow measurement unit as the measurement unit for energy flow.
(4) Required only if you plan to use the calculated volume flow measurement unit as the measurement unit for energy flow.
