(> 3 L/min / < -3 L/min) can be used in this case without any problems. In such a situation it is important to ensure that the trigger is signifi- cantly above the noise of the baseline or else false triggering can be caused. IMT Analytics AG... - Page 44 Naturally, it is also important to ensure that the trigger is significantly above the noise of the baseline. Otherwise, the trigger value must be increased. In the FlowLab software it is very easy to determine with the aid of the cursor where the trigger should be placed. IMT Analytics AG...
