Data Acquisition System (DAS) and APICOM Teledyne API – Model T300/T300M CO Analyzer

Note In AVG, SDEV, MIN or MAX sample modes (see Section 6.1.5.3), the
settings for the Sample Period and the Report Period determine the
number of data points used each time the parameter is calculated, stored
and reported to the COMM ports.
The actual sample readings are not stored past the end of the chosen
report period.
When the STORE NUM SAMPLES feature is turned on, the instrument will
store the number of measurements used to compute the AVG, SDEV, MIN
or MAX Value, but not the actual measurements themselves.

If the instrument is powered off in the middle of a REPORT PERIOD , the samples
accumulated so far during that period are lost. Once the instrument is turned back on,
the DAS restarts taking samples and temporarily stores them in volatile memory as part
of the
REPORT PERIOD currently active at the time of restart. At the end of this
REPORT PERIOD PERIOD, only the sample readings taken since the instrument was
turned back on will be included in any AVG , SDEV , MIN or MAX calculation.
Also, the STORE NUM SAMPLES feature will report the number of sample readings
taken since the instrument was restarted.
