5.3.7.2
Extending the hold time of a detection result beyond the actual duration of the color match is useful if the ac-
tuators controlled by the color measuring system require a certain minimum hold time of the switching level
or the measurement is faster than the reaction time of the downstream evaluation unit.
The hold time can be set to one of three different stages in the option menu.
