| 1Specifications apply to timeslots/gates with a duration of 12.5 % referenced to the signal period (duty cycle 1:8). For other waveforms, the following equation applies: lower measurement limit = lower measurement limit for continuous average mode / √(duty cycle). |
| 2With a resolution of 256 pixel. |
| 3Specifications apply to the default transition setting of 0 dB. The transition regions can be shifted by as much as -20 dB using an adequate offset. |
| 4Time span prior to triggering, where the trigger signal must be entirely below the threshold level in the case of a positive slope and vice versa in thecase of a negative slope. |
| 5Specifications expressed as an expanded uncertainty with a confidence level of 95 % (two standard deviations). For calculating zero offsets at higher confidence levels, use the properties of the normal distribution (e.g. 99.7 % confidence level for three standard deviations). |
| 6Within one hour after zeroing, permissible temperature change ±1 °C, following a two-hour warm-up of the power sensor. |
| 7Two standard deviations at 10.24 s integration time in continuous average mode, with aperture time set to default value. The integration time is defined as the total time used for signal acquisition, i.e. the product of twice the aperture time and the averaging number. Multiplying the noise specifications by √(10.24 s/integration time) yields the noise contribution at other integration times. Using a von Hann window function increases noise by a factor of 1.22. |
