Figure 12 Output Parameters
The two upper panels shown in Figure 12
contain check boxes for configuring selections of averaged data and instantaneous
data separately for recording. Instantaneous data are processed on the basis of
one raw spectrum1. Averaged Data are
processed on the basis of an average of
multiple raw spectra, depending on the
selected averaging time. The selectable
variables are described in the table below.

Since the raw spectra and the instantaneous data represent already averages over 10
seconds, the term “instantaneous” must not be understood literally.

The output variableHeight should always be selected, as this facilitates further processing of
recorded data.
