5.2.1. Location ID
The
Location ID
is used to assign a unique name to a location or area. This
important field is included in sample data records (display and csv output). Use the dial
to scroll through a list of custom location IDs. To edit the list, see toolbox location ID in
section 5.4.4.
5.2.2. Measure
The
Measure
is either
Mass
or
Counts
concentration. It determines whether the
counter is operating in the mass measurement or particle counting mode.
When sampling in mass mode, the size selection represents the upper threshold of your
sample. For example, when you read the value for PM10 it contains all mass that is
size PM10 and lower. Conversely, when sampling in count mode, the size selections
represent the lower threshold of your sample. An example would be that the 1.0
µ
m
cumulative size contains all particulate that are 1.0
µ
m and larger.
