• Sensor supply time - the delay allowed for the sensors to
settle after power has been applied to them (the default value
is 2 seconds) so that the sampling of accurate measurements
can begin.

Analog sensor sampling methods

Figure 190. Sensor type - Analog sensor sampling methods
Determination of the sampling methods permitted for the sensor
type and selection of the sampling method to be used.
Allowed sampling methods - check all check boxes for sampling
methods that are allowed for this sensor type:
• minimum - set sampling method to minimum, i.e. the
specified analog channel is instructed to store the lowest
sampled value;
• maximum - set sampling method to maximum, i.e. the
specified analog channel is instructed to store the highest
sampled value;
• sum - set sampling method to sum, i.e. the specified analog
channel is instructed to store the sum of all sampled values;
• arithmetic average - set sampling method to arithmetic
average, i.e. the specified analog channel is instructed to
store the arithmetic average of all sampled values;
• circular average - set sampling method to circular average, i.e.
the specified analog channel is instructed to store the circular
average of all sampled values;
