Important: when working at heights, the opening on the bottom of the WaveMon RF
can be used to fasten it to a harness. This is particularly advisable to keep it from
being dropped if the device is to be used without its mount as mentioned above.
The device can also be attached to a tripod or a non-conductive extension
arm using the ¼ inch socket to detect leakage without having to approach the
potential source.
7. LOG
7.1 Log interval and average
The 'log interval' denes how often a measurement is stored in memory.
These intervals do not affect how the measurement is taken or the warnings
given to the user. The device always measures every second, regardless of
whether a sample is recorded every log interval and always measures and
calculates the average every second, regardless of the log interval value.
Two different log intervals may be dened. This allows you to dene a
different interval for when the eld is low and when the eld is high. Where
the eld is low, we may not need to memorise so much negligible information,
saving memory space and battery life. Where the eld is high, however, we
can dene a shorter log interval to have more relevant information for later
processing.
The 'average interval' denes the length in seconds of the average to be
calculated. This is what is known as a sliding window, since it denes the size
of the average that is made continuously. In other words, if you dene a sliding
window (average interval) of 6 minutes, the average of the samples for the last
6 minutes will be calculated with each new sample.
