Section/option Description
Measurement Set the following parameters:
obscuration
Obscuration lower limit (%) - Enter a
limits
percentage value from 0.1 to 50 above
which the measurement should be run.
Obscuration higher limit (%) - Enter a
percentage value from 0.1 to 50 below
which the measurement should be run.
This information is subsequently indicated
on the Laser pane of the measurement
sequence:
Enable measure- If required, select Auto start measurement when obscura-
ment to auto- tion is in range. If selected, it is also necessary to set a Sta-
start bilisation time delay in seconds - this will then add a delay
before the measurement initiates after the obscuration level
is first detected within the specified band.
Measurement Select the Enable filtering option to optionally set the soft-
obscuration fil- ware to only record data where the obscuration was within
tering the specified range.
The Time out option forces the measurement to stop if no
such data are recorded within the specified number of sec-
onds.
