3.2 Configuring measurements and measurement series
Description of functions
Configuration of measurements and measurement series it when you define the
parameters required for measurement. The configurations created are always
stored with the measurements and can be used again to repeat the measurements.
That especially applies to measurement series. The configuration of a measure-
ment series ensures that measurements are made with the same settings every
time. This permits evaluation of the progression of characteristics over time.
In addition to parameters for performing a measurement, the limit values of the
characteristics are also configured. Limit values can be configured for measure-
ment series. The configuration is only possible on the PC. Individual measure-
ments that do not belong to a measurement series cannot have limit values.
Availability and privileges
On the operator panel, a measurement is configured or a measurement series con-
figuration changed only during the measurement procedure. On the operator panel,
it is only possible to create a measurement series based on a measurement being
performed.
On the PC, it is possible to configure measurement series. The authorization re-
quired to configure measurements and measurement series is described in detail in
the Appendix.
