4.2. Output Rate
The signal output can be configured between 0.5 Hz and 32 Hz (free running) using software control.
The unit is factory pre-set to the maximum synchronous averaging period (0.5 Hz or 2 secs) in order
to be able to resolve the minimum detection limit.
Fast data rates should only be used w here good signal levels are encountered, otherwise features
may be lost in the background noise. In very low signal conditions, signal:noise ratio issues w ill,
therefore, limit the maximum vertical speed and resolution w hen running profiles.
4.3. Functional Check
To perform a functional test connect the Hyperion to both pow er and PC using the supplied Y
cable.
Run DataLog x2, available from the Valeport Website as a free download - www .valeport.co.uk/

Connect the Hyperion to DataLog or Terminal x2 using the connect w izard:
Once connected, use the Configure w izard to set the instrument up:
