Calibration concepts
The following figures illustrate various FlexPI calibration functions.
illustrates the Cut
Alarm Settings. The Window is set at 30 seconds, the Threshold is set at 10, the Count is set at 4
and the Cut Profile is set to 20%. The first part of the figure shows how 4 impacts within 30
seconds triggers a Cut Alarm (without the Cut Profile parameter). In the second part of the
example the Cut Profile is set to 20%, thereby, extending the Window by 6 seconds for each
recorded Count. Note that without the extra time created by the 20% Cut Profile, the second attack
would not cause an alarm.
illustrates the Climb Alarm concept of a sustained attack within a specified time.
