The measurement time required for test volumes V
p1
and V
p2
must be set on the basis of the calculation
using parameters 56 and 57. For the calculation, see
page 55 (Calculation examples).
The measurement time can be set to a value between
3 and 3600 seconds for the test volume V
p1
, and for
V
p1
+ V
p2
.
