Refer to the following sections for details on the timed measurements:

• Section B.3.2, Making Timed Exposure Measurements, presents an overview on configuring and

using the timer.

• Section B.4.1, Front Panel Controls: RESET/MEASURE, discusses how to start and stop the timer

as well as zero measurements.

• Section B.4.4, Timer Setup, provides details on the timer configuration.
• Section B.5, THEORY OF OPERATION, specifies how the instrument performs timed

measurements.

• Section B.7, CUSTOMIZATION, provides information on customizing the measurement displays

and timer intervals.

Timed Charge Measurements

Range and Resolution: Same as charge measurements.

Measurement Method: The timed charge measurement is derived by monitoring the charge integrated
over a time interval that begins with the activation of the timer. The timer automatically stops when the
elapsed time is equal to the timer interval setting or the exposure is over. Interpolation is used to
determine the charge at an integral number of seconds.

Measurement Accuracy: Same as charge measurements assuming that the rate of charge delivery does
not dramatically change within the interpolation window interval. Refer to Section B.5 for calculation
details.
