Delta measurement technique
The following equation can be used to calculate any Delta reading:
Where: X, Y and Z are the three A/D measurements for a Delta reading.
n = Delta Cycle Number – 1
Example – Calculate the 21st Delta reading:
X, Y, and Z are the three A/D measurements for the 21st Delta reading.
n = Delta Cycle Number – 1
= 21 – 1
= 20
Therefore:
