Hello, I have questions regarding to terms in Power Spreadsheet. What is mSec Active/Scan interval and Sec Active/Comm Interval, and how can I define those terms for customized items which I would like to put into calculation?

Thanks in advance

There are two intervals that can be specified, the scan interval and the comms interval. Scan interval is how often measurements are made. Comms interval is how often data is collected remotely by Loggernet. So, comms interval is how often the modem will be powered up.

mSec Active/Scan  is how long it takes to measure that sensor in milliseconds

Sec Active/Comm Interval   is how long the modem will actively be used in seconds.
