SOS
type
Minimum, Maximum or Average specifies the
value which will be recorded as the result of a
measurement cycle at this site. The three
types are defined as follows
Minimum
— is the 25th percentile of all SOS
values obtained during the cycle.
Average
— is an average taken over all SOS
values obtained during the cycle.
Maximum
— is the 95th percentile of all SOS
values obtained during the cycle.
Omnisense waits for the results of at least
three measurement cycles, and allows as
many as five. It computes a final result as the
average of three cycles have been found suffi-
ciently consistent. See 8.4, “Understanding
the Omnisense Measurement Screen”, on
page 8-8, for more information.
Min/Max
SOS
Specifies the maximum range of variation per-
mitted for the SOS signal at this site. Outside
this range SOS will not be recorded and the
Acoustic Signal Acquisition
indicator will show
failure to acquire.
Number
of points
The number of sample SOS points which will
be taken per measurement cycle. The number
of points can be seen on the graph which
builds during a cycle; the number of units on
the horizontal axis corresponds to the value
specified here.
