you hold the test, the timer for saving the matrix
also holds.

specifies that the end levels be achieved using a
frequency of 0.2 Hz, the application may actually
achieve these end levels at 0.5 Hz. The maximum
rate increase is specified on the ALC tab in the
Compensator tab in the Station Setup window in
the Station Manager application.
