FMS 1 - Fluorescence Monitoring System

© 2017 Hansatech Instruments Ltd

Script Pause Elements - halt script execution until a condition is fulfilled. The LOG function sets

the system to log data during each pause for full trace analysis.

Trace Logging Elements - used in conjunction with the PAR / temperature leaf-clip to log sample

environment and basic parameters relating to the trace.
