Figure 7-23: iDAS – Configuring Parameters for a Specific Data Parameter
7.2.2.5. SAMPLE PERIOD AND REPORT PERIOD
The iDAS defines two principal time periods by which sample readings are taken and permanently recorded:
 SAMPLE PERIOD: Determines how often iDAS temporarily records a sample reading of the parameter in
volatile memory. The SAMPLE PERIOD is set to one minute by default and generally cannot be accessed
from the standard iDAS front panel menu, but is available via the instruments communication ports by
using APICOM or the analyzer’s standard serial data protocol.
SAMPLE PERIOD is only used when the iDAS parameter’s sample mode is set for AVG, MIN or MAX.
 REPORT PERIOD: Sets how often the sample readings stored in volatile memory are processed, (e.g.
average, minimum or maximum are calculated) and the results stored permanently in the instrument’s
Disk-on-Module as well as transmitted via the analyzer’s communication ports. The REPORT PERIOD
may be set from the front panel.
