The factor is calculated from the ratio of a black standard measurement and the probe measurement. 3.3.10 Menu description “Setup” "Integrationtime“ sets the measurement time (100µs - 5.9999s). For this peri- od of time the input signal is sampled (every 100µs) and the average value of the samples is calculated and displayed.

    3 Performing measurements "CW Level Maximum“ adjusts the maximum CW level for "CW Level Check" mode. "Synchronisation" selects how the measurement time period is adapted to the input signal. If "Not active" is selected, no special synchronisation to the input signal is made. If "Active" is selected, a synchronisation on the AC com- ponent of the input signal is activated that results in a more stable measure- ment display.

  • Page 31: Appendix - Measurement Modes

    A Appendix - Measurement Modes I-Effective In order to perceive a signal light or warning beacon, the human eye requires a threshold of illuminance or luminance, which is higher for shorter presentation times. The consequence of this is that for equal peak intensities, a narrow pulse signal light (light-flash) can appear less intense to an observer compared to a steady state signal light: the luminous range of rhythmic light is usually smaller compared to that of a fixed light.

To define a value, enter the menu item Reference (one unit: reference value is set to 1, CW: reference value is set to actual reading, manual reference: manual entry of reference value, 1.000mW: reference value is set to 1mW, reading is provid- ed in dBm units).
  • Page 34: Pulse Energy Measurement

    A Appendix - Measurement Modes original pulse: transferred pulse: Short pulses are transformed to pulse length greater 20ms. Therefore, with 100µs ADC sample time, every pulse is sampled at a minimum of 200 times. With optimal offset compensation the total electronic pulse energy measure- ment error is within ±1%.
  • Page 35 A Appendix - Measurement Modes Offset Compensation: The P-9710 not only measures and calculates the sum of the pulse signal, but also electronic offset / ambient light or detector dark current are included in the calculated sum. To minimize the error produced by these offset signals, the measurement window should be set as short as possible (but long enough to catch the whole pulse, practical value: pulse time + 2 seconds).

On next measurement(s) the range is automatically switched one range step (up or down), as appropriate, until the optimum range is locked-in. For manual range selection, the optimum range can be found by first selecting the autorange function and following the procedure above.
