Target Orbiting Thermometer
3.1 Suggested settings for use in 'Peak Picker' mode
1)
Use the Landmark Graphic processor in Reset mode, to ensure that the
indication falls to zero when no hot material is within the target orbit.
2)
The Threshold level for the Peak Picker is the temperature above
which the Peak Picker is active. The lowest selectable level is the span
minimum of the thermometer connected, but otherwise is decided
entirely by the user.
Set the On delay to zero.
3)
4)
Set the Off delay to >0.4s, to ensure that the indication does not reset
to span minimum within one orbit.
5)
Set the Decay Rate to 1°C/s, so that genuine cooling of the target
may be tracked. Target surfaces that cool quickly (e.g. thin wires) may
require a faster decay rate to track the cooling accurately.
