General Measurement Section 9.
General Measurement is the measurement technique involved in collecting velocity
data based on the General Mode (see Data Collection Modes). The data collection
framework designed for collecting velocity data is detailed in Software Flow Diagram.
Velocity data collection process consists of the following main components, with
discussions of each component.
• Create Measurement,
• Automated Beam Check,
• Data Collection,
• Discharge Summary.
9.1. Create Measurement
Creating a new measurement consists of a number of steps before the data collection
can be performed. The first step involved is to either select an existing Configuration
Template or create a new template with user defined configuration parameters. The
template then needs to be associated with a measurement file that is created by the
user. When the measurement file is created, the software is ready for data collection.
