MEASUREMENT BEHAVIOR
• Measurement time: allows to define a
maximum time for the measurement.
Available values are: not limited, 1 min, 5
min, 6 min, 10 min, 15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 1
day, or custom from 1 second to 100 hours.
• Save samples every: used to select the
time interval for storage of data in
memory (see section 6.1.1). A value will be
stored every [Log interval] seconds (or
minutes).
The available intervals are 0.5 s, 1 s, 5 s, 10 s, 15 s, 30 s, 1 min and 6 min.
There are also available intervals with low power mode of 1 min, 2.5 min and
6min to allow for longer battery autonomy for all probes.
• Average type: two types of average are available, tumbling or sliding.
Tumbling averages are taken at fixed intervals, while sliding averages are
taken through sliding time window. By way of an example, imagine that we
choose an average interval of 10 s. Since the device takes 2 samples per
second, in those 10 seconds we will have 20 samples. In the case of
tumbling averaging, we will have an average of samples 1 to 20, another
average of samples 21 to 40, and so on. In the case of sliding averaging, we
will have continuous averages as the window advances over time. In other
words, we will have the same initial average with samples 1 to 20, but then
immediately afterwards we will have another with samples 2 to 21, then
another with samples 3 to 22, and so on.
