3.4.5.2 Averaging Coefficient The Average algorithm should be used on non-peak & valley graphs where you are interested in determining the average load, stress, strain and distance. NOTE Peak & Valley analysis has its own unique averaging tool. When the Average algorithm is used, scope handles appear. These scope handles may appear as a single handle because they are presented initially one atop the other. Moving the scope handle will present the other handle. A green line is drawn showing the portion of the data stream that is being used to calculate the average. The average is calculated using all of the data points defined by your scope range.
The average load (Lavg) of 207.53N is calculated from all of the data points between the Lmax and Lmin markers. Both markers are highlited showing them as anchored to the Lavg marker.
A green line is displayed showing the range being used to calculate the average result.
The Start (first) scope position is the D@Lmax marker.
The Finish scope position is the D@Lmin marker.
