(2) Instrument information and the parameter record for the first measuring data set will 

follow next.  We define a measuring data set as data which comprise the parameters 
and the measured values of a complete measuring run, i.e. from the start of a 
measurement to the end.  There is also information given, since the collection of data 
started.
