  • Minimum: The minimum value of all of the readings taken.
  • Maximum: The maximum value of all of the readings taken.

Off

Average

Minimum

Maximum

 Off
Oversampling inter-sample Delay (ovi) The time interval at which a sample is taken. 0 - 5000 milliseconds 50
Oversampling Number Samples (ovn) The number of samples that should be taken. 2 - 100 10
