Measurement Sample
The primary device action is a measurement. However, the device action block could include the following
additional actions:
Filtering — If the repeating filter is enabled, the instrument samples the specified number of reading
conversions to yield a single filtered reading. Only one reading conversion is performed if the filter is
disabled, or after the specified number of reading conversions for a moving average filter is reached. The
output of filter feeds hold function.
Hold — Withhold enabled, the first processed reading becomes the "Seed" reading and operation loops
back within the measurement sample block. After the next reading is processed, it is checked to see if it is
within the selected window (0.01%, 0.1%, 1%, 10%) of the "seed" reading. If the reading is within the
window, operation again loops back within the measurement sample block. This looping continues until the
specified number (2-100) consecutive readings are within the window. If one of the readings is not within the
window, the instrument acquires a new "seed" reading and the hold process continues.
4.2.2
Reading Hold
When a hold reading is acquired as described in "Measurement Sample", an audible beep is sounded (if
enabled) and the reading is considered a "true measurement". The reading is held on the display until an
"out of window" reading occurs to restart the hold process. The reading hold feature allows you to capture
and hold a stable reading on the display.
Take steps below to enable and set reading hold function.
