Explanationofbasicconcepts
Samplefactor−MV
A device measures all primary quantities with sample frequency which cannot exceed a certain number of
samplesinatimeperiod.Basedontheselimitations(65Hz∙128samples)asamplefactoriscalculated.Asample
factor(M
V
),depending on frequencyofameasuredsignal,definesanumberofperiodsforameasurement
calculationandthusanumberofharmonicsconsideredincalculations.
Averageinterval−MP
DuetoreadabilityofmeasurementsfromLCDandviacommunication,anAverageinterval(M
P
)iscalculatedwith
regardtothemeasuredsignalfrequency.TheAverageinterval(seechapterAverageintervalonpage41)defines
refreshrateofdisplayedmeasurementsbasedonasamplingfactor.
