20 Normal Measurement NORMAL MODE

Setting the Time Constant

In NORMAL Mode, you can change the

Time Constant (TC) by pressing

.

You can select the Time Constant from 1, 5 or 10seconds.

TC1: Displays the instantaneous value at every 1 second

TC5: Displays moving average for 5 seconds
TC10: Displays moving average for 10 seconds

*The Time Constant is only effective in Normal Mode. When you first turn

on the instrument, it is effective only for the AIR VELOCITY and the AIR

FLOW measurements in Normal Mode. If you need to apply the time

constant to the AIR TEMPERATURE, HUMIDITY and PRESSURE

measurements in Normal Mode, refer to the next section “Changing

Time Constant Application”.

*** What is Time Constant? ***

Time Constant determines the time span of the moving average. When you set the Time

Constant to a larger (longer) value, the readings will become stable. When you select a smaller

(shorter) value, the readings will become more responsive and sensitive to changes in air

velocity. This function is not available in Calculation or Flow Rate Mode.
