4.1 Measurement Principle
The instrument can measure according to "König" and to "Persoz". These mea-
surement methods are defined by a starting angle, the amplitude to be reached by
the pendulum and the resulting swings.

1 6°: Starting angle for König
2 12°: Starting angle for Persoz
3 3°: Light barrier for König
4 4°: Light barrier for Persoz
In both scenarios the measurement ends, when the given amplitude is not reached
by the pendulum anymore.

NOTICE
It is possible to use one instrument for both methods “König” and “Persoz”.
