4. The KD2 Pro Utility
Measurement Interval
This is the time interval (in minutes) that you want the KD2
Pro to wait between measurements. The instrument must
have a minimum of 15 minutes between measurements to
allow for thermal gradients to dissipate. Therefore, you can
select any number over 15 minutes, up to 1440 minutes (24
hours).
Start Time
You can select when you want the auto measurement to begin.
You can choose start times ranging from “Start Now” to
delaying the start for 24 hours. If you select “Start Now,” you
will have about 30 seconds to connect your thermal properties
sensor to the KD2 Pro before the reading will start.
Number of Measurements
This is the total number of measurements that you want the
KD2 Pro to make while in Auto Mode. The number is
between 1 and the amount of available memory. As you
change this value, the Experiment Duration value will change.
The KD2 pro will store up to 4095 readings.
Experiment Duration
This is the total amount of time that your KD2 Pro will oper-
ate in Auto Mode, according to your measurement interval
and number of measurements selected. This gives you an idea
of how long the total Auto Mode experiment time will take.
Available Memory
This shows how much memory you have available for storing
measurements. The KD2 Pro Utility prevents you from defin-
ing an experiment that could exceed the amount of available
memory. If you reach the limit of memory storage, the KD2
Pro will stop taking measurements in Auto Mode.
