Determining the Minimum Sample Time
Different minimum sample times apply depending on what is currently
active on the CBL. Several conditions that affect minimum sample times
are: number of active channels, what is being measured, status of record
time, Statistics post-processing, etc.
For the table below, the following rules apply:
¦ For conditions 1–4, the largest sample time applies regardless of how
many other conditions are active.
¦ For conditions 5–7, and no condition 1 through 4 active, add the
minimum sample time for each active item.
Condition
Minimum Sample Time (in
Seconds)
1. Period/Frequency
measurement
0.25
2.
SONIC
channel 0.008 (see note below)
3. Statistics post-processing =
on
0.0030
4. Manual Trigger or Manual
and Sample Trigger = on
0.0006
5. Number of active channels add 0.00010 for each channel (100
µsec)
6. Record Time = on add 0.000064 (64 µsec)
7.
DIG IN
or
DIG OUT
= on add 0.000080 (80 µsec)
Minimum Sample Time Examples
Active Elements Minimum Sample Time
CH1
active, everything else
is off
0.00010
(Condition 5.)
CH1
, Frequency 0.25 + 0.00010 = 0.25 (Conditions 1
and 5, but 1 is largest value.)
CH1
,
CH2
, Manual Trigger 0.00010*2 + 0.0006 = 0.0006
(Conditions 4 and 5, but 4 is largest
value.)

, Record Time,
DIG IN
0.00010*3 + 0.000064 + 0.000080=
0.000444 (Add Conditions 5, 6, and
7.)
Note: The actual minimum sample time for the
SONIC
channel is
dependent on the motion detector that you use. Consult your motion
detector documentation for actual minimum sample time allowed.
