Averaging
10.4.4 Array Measurement
Especially when determining the average ve-
locity in a flow conduit according to the guide-
lines VDI/VDE 2640, measurements are to be
carried out in a net of individual points in a
cross-section which is placed vertically with re-
spect to the flow direction (s. man. 3.5.5). A
special menu for net measurements is avail-
able to record all single values or to have the
possibility to repeat error measurements. It can
be selected in the function ´Average value´, us-
ing the key
<ARRAY>
. The menu can be used
for other point measurements, too, of course.
1.The Averaging mode is not important:
AveragingMode: ----
For smoothing a meas. value select damping:
Damping: 20
2. Select function average value:

10.4.5 Averaging over the Measuring Time, Meas. duration
To determine the average value of all meas. values, that were acqired over the
conversion rate, over a defined period, the averaging mode
´
CONT
´
must be
set for the required measuring channel. Averaging can be carried out with or
without cycle. A measuring point scan will be performed in any case on start
and stop allowing to record the start and end values including the time of day.
A function channel
M(t)
is required for the recording of the average value
M
Set the averaging mode:
